Help(hey jude)
Hi, there
On a website, I read(or should I say "I HAVE read"???) this about "Hey Jude", by The Beatles:
Hey Jude topped the charts in Britain for two weeks and for 9 weeks in America, where it became The Beatles longest-running No.1 in the US singles chart as well as the single with the longest running time.
What does "longest-running No.1 in the US singles chart" mean? What about "the single with the longest running time. "? Does it mean it was The longest Beatles song?
Thank you

"Longest-running no.1" means that, out of all Beatles songs, it was placed at number one for the longest amount of time. "running time" in this context means how long it was on the charts. So it was the single that was on the charts for the longest amount of time.
Hope that might help!
