Hello and welcome to Who Runs America, today I'm going to tell you about Miley Cyrus, the pop star who has broken Adele's record with her song "Flowers".
"Flowers" is a song that Miley Cyrus co-wrote with Gregory Aldae Hein and Michael Pollack, and it was released on January 12, 2023. The song is a catchy pop tune that celebrates self-love and empowerment, and it has become a global phenomenon. According to Billboard, "Flowers" has returned to the No. 1 position on the Billboard Global 200 chart, which ranks the most-consumed songs in the world. The chart's methodology takes into account streams and sales, and "Flowers" has accumulated an impressive 49.7 million streams and sold 9,000 copies in the past week.
But that's not all. "Flowers" has also surpassed Adele's record for the longest-running No. 1 song on the Adult Contemporary chart, which measures radio airplay of songs that appeal to a wide range of listeners. "Flowers" has now spent 25 consecutive weeks at the top of this chart, beating Adele's "Hello", which held the record with 24 weeks in 2015-2016. This achievement means that Cyrus is now tied with Mariah Carey for the longest stay in the chart's penthouse among female artists. Carey achieved this feat with her song "We Belong Together" in 2005.
Miley Cyrus has also received critical acclaim for her songwriting skills, which have often been overlooked and underappreciated in the past. As Forbes writer Hugh McIntyre notes, "Flowers" marks a turning point in Cyrus's career, showcasing her growth as an artist and songwriter. He writes, "Co-written by Cyrus herself alongside Gregory Aldae Hein and Michael Pollack, the track is a testament to her evolution from a teenage sensation propelled by hits penned by others to a full-fledged artist with a unique voice and vision." McIntyre also predicts that "Flowers" will be a major contender at the upcoming 2024 Grammy Awards, especially in the prestigious Song of the Year category.
So there you have it, folks. Miley Cyrus is not only a pop star, but also a record-breaker and a songwriter who deserves her flowers. What do you think of her song "Flowers"? Do you think it will win any Grammys? Let me know in the comments below.
