In
a format known by the rapid exchange of artists and the constant search
for new sound, sustained success of Britney Spears on pop radio reached
new heights.

according to Nielsen BDS.

this week's list dated September 24, it extends its leadership in the
path list with a record 12 years, seven months and four days.
Pop Songs The table was set the week of October 3, 1992, after the emergence of stars like Madonna and Mariah Carey. If
the chart has existed since the beginning of these visionary careers,
they also probably would have led the list for decades. Madonna appeared on pop radio in 1983 and had its last great move by Pop Songs in 1995. Mariah Carey released her smash hit Vision of Love in 1990 and most recently reached the top of Pop Songs in 2005.

the last ten years or more, Britney Spears has had its ups and downs",
said MoJoe Roberts, program director of the station KHOP California
earlier this year. "But every time a new song out of it, is like an event for the format."
