Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” increases to No. 1 on Signboard‘s Pop Airplay chart (dated April 27).

Boone lands his preliminary leader on the study. He formerly charted 2 tunes on Pop Airplay: “Ghost Town” (No. 24 peak in March 2022) and “In destiny” (No. 36, September 2023).

Plus, with the track on Night Street/Warner Records, Warner has actually promoted 2 successive Pop Airplay No. 1sts for the very first time, as “Beautiful Things” changes Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control,” on SWIMS Int./ Warner, after 2 weeks on top.

Furthermore, with “Beautiful Things” at No. 1 and “Lose Control” at No. 2, Warner declares the leading 2 titles on Pop Airplay all at once for the time.

(The Pop Airplay chart, which started in October 1992, ranks tunes by weekly plays on over 150 mainstream leading 40 radio stations kept track of by Mediabase, with information offered to Signboard by Luminate.)

“I composed it on my piano,” the Washington local just recently informed Signboard of the tune’s origin. “I ‘d simply relocated to L.A., and I ‘d moved my grandmother’s old piano to my living-room. I could not sleep one night, and I didn’t understand what to do, so I came downstairs and began playing the piano. That’s when I composed the tunes.

“It was influenced by a relationship that I had actually simply entered,” Boone even more mused. “For the very first time in my life, I seemed like I was very out of control of the method this relationship would end up. Suggesting like, in the past, I seem like I’ve constantly understood that I might be the one to end a relationship. This one felt extremely various. It was the very first time that I ‘d actually been really, truly horrified to lose something.”

All Signboard charts dated April 27 will upgrade Tuesday, April 23, on Billboard.com.
