The Beatles have held the record on Billboard’s Hot 100 list for over half a century. Now the British legends will see themselves beaten, as the Canadian rapper Drake entered the list through his participation on DJ Khaled’s “Staying alive”.
The song went straight into fifth place and thus participates in 30 songs that placed in the top five.
The last songs the Beatles had such a placement were with the songs “The long and winding road” and “For you blue” from the last album Let it be.
In the player above, you can hear Ronny Svensson talk about the Beatles documentary “Get back”, which was a hit last winter.
