Glass Animals' Heat Waves has just equalled a Spice Girls US chart feat
officialcharts.comGlass Animals have equalled a long-held US chart record with their mega-hit Heat Waves. This week, Heat Waves tops the US Billboard Hot 100 for a fourth week.
According to Billboard, it becomes the longest-running Number 1 hit in America by a British band since Spice Girls' debut chart-topping hit Wannabe also spent a month-long stint at the top of the Hot 100, just over 25 (!) years ago.
Interestingly enough, Heat Waves is also the ninth-longest reigning Number 1 hit by a British group in America. The longest chart-topper by a British group is Hey Jude by the Beatles, which had a massive nine-week long reign at Number 1 in 1968.
