Billie Eilish has made music history once again. Her single “Wildflower” has officially become the longest-charting solo female song in Billboard Hot 100 history, spending an impressive 72 consecutive weeks on the chart. The milestone surpasses the previous record set by SZA’s “Snooze” (70 weeks).
Released as the fourth single from her Grammy-nominated third studio album Hit Me Hard and Soft (2024), “Wildflower” continues to thrive nearly two years later, driven by enduring fan love and viral streaming resurgence. The track peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified double platinum by the RIAA.
