Hozier started his career by releasing one of the biggest rock hits in recent memory. “Take Me to Church” launched him into superstardom all around the world, and then for many years, it seemed as if it would remain his only major global smash.

In 2024, the Irish singer-songwriter returned with “Too Sweet,” which brought him back to charts globally and even helped him rise to new heights on several Billboard rankings. After a historic run on one of the company’s rock rankings, “Too Sweet” finally steps back, as Hozier is replaced by one of the hottest newcomers in music.

Sombr Jumps to No. 1

Sombr leads the Hot Rock Songs chart, Billboard’s list of the most consumed rock tracks in the United States. His single “Undressed” surges from the runner-up spot to No. 1 in its twentieth frame on the tally.

“Undressed” Replaces “Too Sweet” at No. 1

“Undressed” replaces “Too Sweet” atop the Hot Rock Songs chart. Hozier’s smash has now spent 72 frames on the genre-specific ranking — 70 of which have been in first place. That’s a historic run on any Billboard roster, and even if the tune never returns, Hozier will likely forever claim one of the longest-running rock No. 1s of all time.

Hozier’s Smash Lives Inside the Top 10

“Too Sweet” remains a top 10 hit on five different Billboard charts at the moment, even 72 frames into its lifespan on each and every one of them. The track sits highest on the Hot Rock Songs list and also appears on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, Hot Alternative Songs, Alternative Streaming Songs, and Rock Streaming Songs charts, coming in at No. 4 on the first two rosters and Nos. 8 and 10 on the latter two, respectively.

Sombr Scores the Two Biggest Rock Hits

Sombr has a lot to celebrate when it comes to the Hot Rock Songs chart. Not only does “Undressed” become a No. 1, but “Back to Friends” follows closely, as it improves from No. 3 to second place, meaning he controls the highest two spaces on the same tally.

Amazingly, of the 25 spaces on the Hot Rock Songs list, Sombr fills four. In addition to his top 10s, new single “12 to 12” leaps from No. 16 to No. 13 in its second frame on the ranking, while “We Never Dated” reenters at No. 25.
