LeAnn Rimes Graces Major Pop Chart

LeAnn Rimes Graces Major Pop Chart

In celebration of its 50th anniversary, Billboard's Hot 100 chart has compiled a list of the hottest songs from 1958 - present. LeAnn Rimes comes in at No. 4 on the 'Hot 100 All-Time Top Songs' with her 1997 crossover hit, 'How Do I Live.'

"It's just one of those songs that lives on in everyone's life," Rimes told Billboard.

Songs on the Hot 100 are ranked based on their sales and radio airplay. Rimes' 'How Do I Live,' which she recorded when she was just 14 years old, has racked up 3.5 million in sales of the physical single, with an average of more than 1000 digital units still selling each week.

Rimes has the highest ranking for a country artist on the chart. Other country songs that make the list are Kenny Rogers' 'Lady' at No. 47 and Shania Twain's 'You're Still the One' at No. 66. Chubby Checker's 'The Twist' claims the top spot. Read the full list here.
