On the University of Pennsylvania station's site, you can also find data on rankings from countdowns during previous years. WXPN is rounding up their stats on their live show "The Key" on things like " artist placement, song title word nerdery, and other bits of trivia," the radio station said. Bob Dylan is the artist taking up the most time on the airways, and the Allman Brothers' "Eat a Peach" - probably thanks to their half-hour songs - is the album with the most airtime. Since they're tracking the length of songs, WXPN is able to provide an additional ranking of albums and artists: by airtime. On the other hand, "Mountain Jam" by the Allman Brothers stands in sharp contrast as the longest, at just over 33 minutes in runtime. "Bookends Theme" by Simon & Garfunkel, at just one minute and 21 seconds, is the shortest song WXPN has played over the long weekend. WXPN is also ranking songs based on length, because they really get into their annual countdowns. In the other categories, "The Joshua Tree" by U2 is the No. 1 in the artists category, with 38 songs by the British band submitted to the best artists category. WXPN is also using songs submitted to rank the Top Artists, Top Albums, Top Decades, Top Years, Longest Songs, and Shortest Songs.įor example, the Beatles currently rank No.
