The 7 Longest-Charting Songs On The Philippines Hot 100: TJ Monterde, KZ Tandingan Cup Of Joe, Arthur Nery, And More
From Arthur Nery’s “Isa Lang” to Billie Eilish’s “BIRDS OF A FEATHER,” here the songs that have never left the Billboard Philippines charts since they were launched 85 weeks ago.
This week, the Billboard Philippines flagship charts — the Philippines Hot 100 and the Top Philippine Songs — have officially been active for 85 weeks.
Since the launch of the two charts in July 2024, Billboard Philippines has continued to precisely survey and pinpoint which songs are the biggest in the Philippines on a weekly basis. Made possible through the objective data from Luminate, the industry’s most distinguished music and entertainment data provider, this has helped paint an accurate picture of which songs and artists are the ones that the Filipino people are currently listening to the most.
Since the charts’ inception and up until this week (the week of February 14, 2026), there have officially been seven songs that have stood the test of time on the Philippines Hot 100, having never left the charts in the past 85 weeks, with only three of them having been able to do the same on the Top Philippine Songs. Get to know these songs below.
Up Dharma Down – “Unti-Unti” – No. 34
Peak Position: No. 33 (Philippines Hot 100)
“Unti-Unti” is the ninth track on Up Dharma Down or UDD’s self-titled album from 2019, and was first released two years prior as the campaign tie-up song for a Filipino telco brand. In this song, listeners dive into the story of someone fondly reminiscing the memories of a past love as they find the strength to accept its end and finally move on.
Up Dharma Down – “Tadhana” – No. 26
Peak Position: No. 15 (Philippines Hot 100). No. 6 (Top Philippine Songs)
Released in 2012 as part of Up Dharma Down’s album Capacities, “Tadhana” is the Filipino indie-electronic group’s biggest song ever. In this song, the listener takes on the perspective of two people who are undeniably meant to be with each other, as one grapples with hesitation while the other is more self-assured with how they feel.
The Script – “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved” – No. 19
Peak Position: No. 14 (Philippines Hot 100)
Released on July 25, 2008 as the second single from The Script’s self-titled debut album, “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved” is the Ireland-hailing pop rock hitmakers’ most popular song. Bittersweet in nature, the song talks of unwavering dedication and love for someone who continues to wait, perhaps, in vain, for a lost love to come back to them.
Arthur Nery – “Isa Lang” – No. 16
Peak Position: No. 10 (Philippines Hot 100)
Released in 2021, “Isa Lang” is Arthur Nery’s biggest song to date. Here, the Filipino singer-songwriter blends R&B and neo-soul, topping it all off with confessional lyrics about expressing one’s feelings to a special someone in hopes that that person reciprocates the same romantic emotions.
Cup Of Joe, Janine – “Tingin” – No. 42
Peak Position: No. 6 (Philippines Hot 100). No. 4 (Top Philippine Songs)
A collaboration single by alternative pop band Cup of Joe and singer-songwriter Janine, “Tingin” was first released as a single on April 28, 2023 and eventually became the opening track to Cup of Joe’s debut EP Patutunguhan. It is notable for its dreamy instrumentals and lyrics telling the story of two people and their love that withstands the chaos of world, focusing only on their significant other through it all.
Billie Eilish – “BIRDS OF A FEATHER”
Peak Position: No. 2 (Philippines Hot 100)
Co-written by Billie Eilish’s brother and producer Finneas, “BIRDS OF A FEATHER” is the fourth track from Eilish’s Grammy-nominated record Hit Me Hard And Soft. Released as a single on July 2, 2024, the song is distinguished by its dreamy new wave-pop instrumentals, topped off with emotive themes that detail profound love for a another person.
TJ Monterde, KZ Tandingan – “Palagi” – No. 46
Peak Position: No. 2 (Philippines Hot 100). No. 1 (Top Philippine Songs)
First released on July 6, 2023, “Palagi” is the hit single from Filipino singer-songwriter TJ Monterde’s sophomore album Sariling Mundo. A tender and mellow track on unconditional love, the song is Monterde’s biggest song yet, which eventually led to different versions being released, including a now-beloved fan-favorite one with KZ Tandingan — Monterde’s wife, fellow OPM star in her own right, and Asia’s Soul Supreme.
