As noted above, “Choosin’ Texas” overtook Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men’s “One Sweet Day” for the most weeks atop the Hot 100 for a non-holiday song by a woman. Previously, it passed Carey’s “We Belong Together” and Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” for the most weeks at No. 1 among non-holiday titles by women with no male-billed acts. The overall record is 22 weeks by Carey with “All I Want for Christmas Is You.”

Langley and Megan Moroney pulled off a new feat in March, when they became the first women primarily known as country artists to concurrently top the Hot 100, thanks to Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas,” and the Billboard 200, via Moroney’s Cloud 9.

When “Choosin’ Texas” notched its 11th week atop the Hot 100 at the end of June, it became the sole longest-leading country title (defined as those that have appeared on Billboard‘s Hot Country Songs chart) by a woman, surpassing Debby Boone’s 1977 smash “You Light Up My Life.”

Langley rewrote Taylor Swift’s record for the most weeks at No. 1 for a woman on the Country Songwriters chart when she logged her 17th week on top, a run since expanded to 23 weeks (through the Aug. 15 ranking). The only other women to top Country Songwriters are Tracy Chapman (14 weeks), Laura Veltz (five), Beyoncé (two), Gabby Barrett, Nicolle Galyon and Megan Moroney (one each). Langley has a way to go to catch up with the overall leader, Zach Bryan, who has 97 total weeks at No. 1.

“Choosin’ Texas” passed the run of another song by a woman with a famed country pedigree: Dolly Parton wrote the 14-week Hot 100 No. 1 “I Will Always Love You,” which Whitney Houston covered for The Bodyguard. Langley and Miranda Lambert are now the women country artist/songwriters with the longest-leading Hot 100 chart-topper.

Langley helmed a noteworthy mark on Hot Country Songs chart dated Aug. 1, where women held the entire top five for an unprecedented seventh consecutive week. Langley occupied three of the five slots: No. 1 (“Choosin’ Texas”), No. 3 (“Be Her”) and No. 5 (“I Can’t Love You Anymore,” with Morgan Wallen), while Taylor Swift ranked at No. 2 (“I Knew It, I Knew You”) and Stella Lefty at No. 4 (“Boston”).

As “Choosin’ Texas” and “Be Her” held Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, on the Hot 100 on charts dated May 6 and 23, Langley became the first artist known for primarily recording country music in the chart’s history to simultaneously occupy the list’s top two spots for multiple weeks. Morgan Wallen came close when he had two songs at Nos. 1 and 2, but only for one week, in May 2025.
