The song was previously the band’s highest charting single of all time at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Then it beat itself by climbing to No. 4 on the chart.

Now, the song has broken the record on the Adult Pop Songs chart. It’s been at No. 1 for 15 weeks straight. The last time a song has topped this chart for this long was The Fray’s “How to Save a Life” in 2006-07 when that was at No. 1 for 15 weeks as well.

The overall longest No. 1 on the chart is “Smooth” by Santana feat Rob Thomas in 1999. “High Hopes” is now tied for the No. 7 spot of all time. You can check out the full list of longest-leading No. ones below.

The band also recently hit a milestone with Pretty. Odd. Just a few days ahead of the album’s 11th anniversary, it’s officially been certified platinum. The release, which is a polarizing LP fans either love or hate, spawned hits like “Nine in the Afternoon” and “She’s A Handsome Woman” and originally debuted on March 25, 2008. “Nine in the Afternoon” was the album’s lead single, in fact, and was certified double platinum on its own by the RIAA.
