Teddy Swims’ haunting song Lose Yourself is the type of single that stays with you. So that could be why it just broke a Billboard 100 record for the longest run on that chart. It has been there for a record-breaking 92 weeks.
It has come a long way since it debuted at 99 on August 26, 2003. It finally hit #1 in March 2024. And this week, it is charting at #11.
I want to say my hopes for the tune’s future on the chart, but I don’t want to jinx its run. So, I will post about it if/when it happens
The previous record holder was Glass Animals’ Heat Waves.
Tracy Chapman released her song Fast Cars 35 years ago, and last year, Luke Combs rerecorded it.
This year, he was nominated for a Grammy for Best Country Solo Performance for his cover of the single.
So, when they asked him to perform the hit during the telecast, he said that he is not going to do it solo. He was going to do it as a duet with Chapman.
And their rendition did not disappoint. It moved everyone inside and outside of that room to have all the feels.
Flavor Flav did something he had never done before. But that all changed yesterday when he sang the National Anthem at the Milwaukee Bucks game.
What can you say after hearing that? Bless his heart because he tried! It is just not his genre.
And the Rapper had this to say to his haters. “The anthem was a long time bucket list item…that was fun,” he wrote. “I can’t live my life worried about what people might say about me. I won’t let that stop me from trying new things and doing things I wanna do. Some people might not like that. But a sure failure is if you stop trying.”
So, never give up! Because one day, you could do something no one ever expected you to do. And not sure if you should have done it.
