The top 10 on this week’s Hot Trending Songs chart looks very much like it did last time around, with just one track appearing inside the highest tier on Billboard’s ranking of the most-talked-about tunes on Twitter that wasn’t there last frame.

BTS continues to lead the charge with their smash “Butter,” one of only three tracks to ever hit No. 1 on the Hot Trending Songs chart. The cut has now dominated the list for eight nonconsecutive frames, and with one more turn in the driver’s seat, it breaks out of its tie with SB19’s “Bazinga” and becomes the longest-running champion in the history of the roster.

Dimash Kudaibergen once again claims a pair of spaces inside the top 10, and he’s close to capturing the No. 1 spot for the first time. The Kazakh musician’s “Fly Away” lifts from No. 4 to the runner-up space, while “Be With Me” improves from No. 9 to No. 7. Impressively, Kudaibergen is one of three artists that fill several spots inside just the upper half of the Hot Trending Songs chart this week.

Up next is BamBam, who is quickly becoming a standout star of the relatively new ranking. The solo superstar and Got7 performer’s own “Slow Mo” keeps at its No. 3 high for another turn, while “Who Are You” returns not just to the top 10 on the Hot Trending Songs chart, but to the list entirely. The track, a collaboration with Red Velvet member Seulgi, once lifted as high as No. 7 before falling off the ranking. Now, it re-enters the race at No. 10.

Japanese boy band Be:First comes next with “Gifted,” which improves to No. 4. Mew Suppasit and Sam Kim’s collaborative smash “Before 4:30 (She Said…)” is a non-mover at No. 5, while SB19’s former leader “Bazinga” slips from second place to sixth.

Right after “Be With Me” comes Jin of the band BTS with not one, but two smashes of his own. The South Korean powerhouse’s “Super Tuna” and “Yours” place at Nos. 8 and 9, respectively, with the former cut holding at its peak position.

These were the most-talked-about songs on Twitter last week, according to Billboard’s Hot Trending Songs chart.
