* GenreShift: When "Old Town Road" reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019, Cyrus became one of a handful of country music artists to have a chart-topper on both the country and pop charts, but with different singles; "Achy-Breaky Heart" was a No. 1 country hit in 1992. [[note]]This goes back in history, with artists like Elvis Presley, Sheb Wooley, B.J. Thomas, Linda Ronstadt, Debby Boone, Anne Murray, Exile (the only band or group), Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Pink and Justin Bieber also having a pop No. 1 hit with a song that never topped the country chart, and vice versa.[[/note]]

* ChartDisplacement: His only #1 on the Hot 100 is not "Achy Breaky Heart", but rather his guest spot on Music/LilNasX's "Old Town Road" in 2019. As for the country music charts: obviously his biggest hit is "Achy Breaky Heart", but his second-most played song, "Some Gave All", only got to ''#52''. This is because "Some Gave All" was not a single.
