ROLLING' ALONG: With a 61st week on the Hot 100, Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" (23-32) ties Los Del Rio's "Macarena" as the longest-charting No. 1 in the Hot 100's 53-year history. (The songs became Billboard's top titles of 2011 and 1996, respectively).
Here's a recap of the longest-lasting leaders in the chart's archives:

Jason Mraz's "happy little hippie song" "I'm Yours" holds the Hot 100's longevity record among all titles. The track, which peaked at No. 6, spent 76 weeks on the chart in 2008-09.
