Benson Boone Makes Hot 100 History
Benson Boone is actively promoting three singles from his forthcoming album, American Heart. 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else,' 'Mystical Magical,' and 'Momma Song' all appear on multiple Billboard charts at the moment, but none are performing nearly as well as the track that started it all for him. 'Beautiful Things' broke Boone into the mainstream and has become a historic smash for the pop singer. It is still present on the Hot 100 this week, even though the musician stopped promoting the tune long ago. Amazingly, it lives in a loftier position than both 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else' and 'Mystical Magical,' the first two official singles from his forthcoming sophomore full-length. This frame, 'Beautiful Things' rises from No. 14 to No. 10, reentering the most competitive space on the Hot 100. As it climbs, the track reaches a milestone that only a handful of songs in history have achieved. 'Beautiful Things' has now lived on the Hot 100 for 70 weeks. It's just the tenth track in the more than half-century-long tenure of the ranking to reach that landmark figure. Boone is currently tied with 'Snooze' by SZA as the ninth-longest-running winner ever. With its seventieth frame scored, the tune breaks out of a tie with 'How Do I Live' by LeAnn Rimes and 'Save Your Tears' by The Weeknd and Ariana Grande, both of which disappeared from the tally after 69 stays. As Boone continues to up his career-best each week, the record for the longest stay on the Hot 100 is also frequently reset. 'Lose Control,' the breakout smash by Teddy Swims, debuted on the chart in 2023, and it's still present today. This time around, in its ninety-third stint on the tally, it returns to the top 10 as well, pushing from No. 11 to No. 8. It's highly likely that 'Beautiful Things' will break its tie with 'Snooze' in just a few days and earn a seventy-first turn on the Hot 100. When it does, it will tie with 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' by Mariah Carey — and from there, it could continue to climb. Also ahead of 'Beautiful Things' on the list of the longest-charting successes in Hot 100 history are all of the following tracks: 'Heat Waves' by Glass Animals (91 weeks), 'Blinding Lights' by The Weeknd (90 weeks), 'Radioactive' by Imagine Dragons (87 weeks), 'Sail' by Awolnation (79 weeks), 'Levitating' by Dua Lipa (and in some instances, DaBaby) (77 weeks), and 'I'm Yours' by Jason Mraz (76 weeks). How far Boone will be able to progress with his pop smash is yet to be seen, but he may soon tie, and even pass, the biggest wins from Mraz, Lipa, and DaBaby.

Benson Boone new music As noted above, Boone has released two singles ahead of the June 20 release of 'American Heart.' First up, he dropped the sleek, hard-charging 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else,' which we'd argue is destined to be a fan favorite at live shows. The singalong chorus and hair-raising tempo changes are sure to get even the most stone-faced concertgoer bopping along in no time. We know they worked on us. Then, in late April, the Washington State native unveiled the dreamy '70s throwback 'Mystical Magical.' Its honey-dripped vocals mixed with twinkly, deceptively simple piano builds to an Electric Light Orchestra-like falsetto crescendo that snaps the laid-back tune into sharp focus. For our money, this is pop rock at its finest. Catchy, lightweight and incredibly danceable. We're fully onboard. For a sneak peek at what these songs sound like live, you can see Boone's performance of both tracks on 'SNL' below.

Benson Boone Nails Signature Backflip, Performs ‘American Heart' Songs in ‘SNL' Debut: Watch
Benson Boone brought his dynamic stage presence and first-class showmanship to Saturday Night Live on May 3. Making his debut as the musical guest on the long-running NBC sketch comedy series, the 22-year-old pop sensation performed two tracks from his forthcoming sophomore album, American Heart. More from Billboard Sabrina Carpenter and Quinta Brunson Deliver Musical Ode to 'Shorties' on 'SNL': Watch Ghost Earns First No. 1 Album on Billboard 200 With 'Skeletá' Fans Choose Maroon 5 and LISA's 'Priceless' as This Week's Favorite New Music Following an introduction from SNL host Quinta Brunson, Boone nailed one of his electrifying signature backflips before briefly serenading the actress and comedian with his song 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else,' which peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100 earlier this year. Later in the episode, the 2025 best new artist Grammy nominee returned to the stage for a performance of 'Mystical Magical.' Dressed in a velvety purple ensemble, Boone delivered the jangly pop-rock track amid a dreamy backdrop of glowing pink and blue lights, supported by a full band and backup singers dressed in white. ''Cause it feels so mystical, magical, oh baby/ 'Cause once you know, once you know/ My love is so mystical, magical, oh baby/ 'Cause once you know, once you know,' he sings on the song, which interpolates 'Physical,' an Olivia Newton-John classic, in the chorus. Boone's SNL debut arrives ahead of the release of American Heart, scheduled for release on June 20 through Night Street Records/Warner Records. Both 'Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else' and 'Mystical Magical' appear on the forthcoming project. His appearance at Studio 8H follows a standout run at Coachella in April, where he wowed audiences with high-energy sets packed with backflips — and even a surprise cameo from Queen guitarist Brian May during a cover of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' on weekend one. Watch Boone's SNL performances below. For those without cable, the broadcast streams on Peacock, which you can sign up for at the link here.

'SNL': Musical guest Benson Boone shines with Quinta Brunson alongside Sabrina Carpenter's surprise cameo
Benson Boone made his Saturday Night Live debut on May 3, performing as musical guest during an episode hosted by Abbott Elementary creator and star Quinta Brunson. The Grammy-nominated singer took the stage twice, first performing his single "Sorry I'm Here for Someone Else" after an athletic flip from a piano, briefly serenading Brunson as she introduced him. The moment added a light-hearted interaction between host and guest, with Brunson offering a knowing glance before returning offstage. Hosting SNL for the second time, Brunson opened the episode with a musical monologue celebrating the highs of being short. Backed by dancers, she sang about humorous perks like getting 'wasted on one glass of wine' and wearing crop tops as dresses. Midway through, Sabrina Carpenter appeared to join the fun, delivering playful lines about life in a smaller frame, such as wondering if "short rib" just tastes like "rib" and whether "short stories" are just novels. Together, they celebrated celebrities known for their stature and achievements, including Simone Biles, Tom Holland, and Kendrick Lamar. While Carpenter did not perform musically, both she and Boone were recently nominated for Best New Artist at the 2025 Grammy Awards, though Chappell Roan ultimately claimed the prize. Boone's SNL appearance follows his standout Coachella debut in April, where he performed Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" alongside Brian May. He is also set to release his second studio album, American Heart, on June 20.
