Lil Nas X's viral hit "Old Town Road" has reached No. 1 on Watch Friendsthe Billboard Hot 100.

The TikTok mainstay -- which is definitely a country song, you monsters -- shot from 15 to the top spot, no doubt pushed by the remix featuring Billy Ray Cyrus that came out on Friday.

It's also Lil Nas X's birthday!

"Old Town Road" was also No. 1 on the R&B/hip-hop and rap charts. It remained absent from the country chart, from which it was cruelly removed after failing to "embrace enough elements of today's country music." (This was not very cowboy of Billboard.)

According to Stereogum, it's now tied for the third-shortest song to ever hit No. 1. The shortest was "Stay," a 1960 doo-wop track by Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs, and the second-shortest was "I'm Henry VIII, I Am" by Herman's Hermits, which was released in 1965. (Clearly, band names have taken a nosedive since the '60s.) The otherthird-shortest No. 1 hit is the Chiffons' "He's So Fine," which runs 1:53 just like "Old Town Road."

It also samples Nine Inch Nails' "34 Ghost IV," which means it's also the first credited No. 1 song for Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. The good this song is doing for the world truly knows no bounds.

UPDATE: April 9, 2019, 3:35 p.m. ET An earlier version of this article stated that "Old Town Road" was the second-shortest No. 1 single of all time. It is, in fact, tied for the third-shortest. Yeehaw and we regret the error.
