"I Just Might" rises to a new peak of No. 2 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart, establishing a new all-time high.
The track reaches the runner-up position in its twenty-sixth week on the roster – after half a year on the tally – which is known as one of the slower-moving radio rankings in America.
Mars comes within one rung of earning another leader, but Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” refuses to vacate the top spot.
The smash spends a thirty-seventh week at No. 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart, extending one of the longest reigns the ranking has ever seen.
With another frame in charge, “Ordinary” stands alone as the sole third-longest-running No. 1 in the history of the Adult Contemporary chart.
Warren’s hit breaks out of a tie with Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You,” which ruled for 36 weeks beginning in 2018.
Now, that cut – which is largely known as a collaboration with Cardi B, though AC stations didn’t always play that version – slips to fourth place on the all-time list.
Only two songs have spent more time atop the ranking.
Miley Cyrus’s “Flowers” remains the longest-running leader, with 57 weeks at No.

Teddy Swims’s “Lose Control” follows with a 49-frame stint in charge.
As “I Just Might” celebrates 26 weeks on all three of *Billboard*’s pop radio charts, it remains inside the top 10 on each and every one of them.
The track holds at No. 2 on the Adult Pop Airplay list after previously reaching No.

On the Pop Airplay tally, “I Just Might” rises from No. 7 to No.
6.
The single also ruled that rundown earlier in its run.
“I Just Might” appears on 12 *Billboard* charts this week, and it occupies the top 10 on almost every one of them.
The single leads the highly-competitive Radio Songs register for a twenty-first week, standing out as one of the longest rulers ever.
The cut also returns to No. 1 on both the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot R&B Songs charts, which are built using not only airplay data, but also sales and streams.
