Sam Hunt's 'Body Like A Back Road is not only Sam's most successful Country hit ever. It broke two records within a month of one another. Starting in June 2017, #BLABR as I'll call it, broke a 55-year-old-record previously held by Leroy Van Dyke's "Walk On By", with 20 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. That was just the beginning.
By doing that, Sam Hunt became the only solo country artist with the longest run at the top of the 59-year old Hot Country Songs chart
Here comes the truly record breaking accomplishment.
In July 2017, #BLABR became the only song in the history of the Hot Country Songs chart to stay at number one for more than 24 weeks and not by just a little bit!
Sam Hunt's song spent a total of 34 weeks on top of the Hot Country Songs chart as of the issue dated October 14, 2017.
THAT may never happen again!
