.@coldplay last hit No. 1 on the #Hot100 in 2008 with "Viva La Vida" (a 13-year, three-month and two week gap between No. 1s).

That's the longest gap between No. 1s since @Cher's "Believe" hit No. 1 in March 1999—her first since "Dark Breed" in 1974 (an almost 25-year gap).

This is BTS' sixth Billboard Hot 100 number 1 hit following their English singles - 'Dynamite,' 'Butter,' 'Permission To Dance' - 'Savage Love' with Jawsh685 and Jason Derulo, and 'Life Goes On' from their best-selling album, BE. BTS now has five number 1 debuts on the Hot 100 chart, tied with Drake and Ariana Grande for the most Hot 100 top debuts of all time. The single also extends BTS' record as the artist with the most number 1 hits on the Hot 100 this decade.

.@BTS_twt has achieved its six #Hot100 No. 1s over a span of a year and just over a month.

That's the quickest accumulation of six leaders since @thebeatles scored six over a year and two weeks, in 1964-66.
