“Old Town Road” breaks Billboard’s Hot 100 record, officially making it the best song of all time

Music is such a subjective art form that we don’t have too many metrics for what makes “good music”—beyond having Eddie Vedder on vocals at least—so it stands to reason that one of the things we can trust is the objective rankings of Billboard’s Hot 100 list. After all, if Billboard determines that something is successful enough to warrant a “Hot” label, then it must be good on some level, right? And if we accept that, then the longer something retains that “Hot” label, the better it must be. So, with all of that established, we can say semi-definitively that Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” is now the best song of all time, because it just broke the record for most consecutive weeks at the top of the Hot 100 chart.
