Every weekday on 97.9 The Hill’s “This Morning with Aaron Keck,” Victor Lewis scours the Internet for the day’s top trending stories, from weird news to wacky crimes to odd business ventures and everything in between. Click here to listen back to all our past What’s Trending segments – and tune in to “This Morning” on 97.9 The Hill every weekday at 7:45 to hear What’s Trending live on the air.
Trending today: Victor takes a deep dive into the 35 foreign-language songs that have topped the Billboard Hot 100. Twenty-three of those have come since 2012, including six this year alone – all in either Spanish or Korean. Earlier top-charting hits have represented several other languages, though, including Italian (Volare), German (99 Luftballons), and Japanese. (Aaron guesses that one right, as it turns out: 1963’s Sukiyaki.)
