Just a month into its run on the Billboard charts, “Asking for a Friend” has already reached No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, helping the band surpass a tie with one of the biggest names in rock radio.
With this milestone, Foo Fighters now have 15 career No. 1s on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, giving them the fourth-most chart-toppers of all time. They had previously shared this spot, but “Asking for a Friend” now establishes their status as one of rock’s leading acts.
For comparison, Shinedown leads the all-time list with 21 No. 1 hits, followed by Three Days Grace with 19. Five Finger Death Punch sits just ahead of Foo Fighters with 17.
The band’s steady rise on the charts echoes the song’s own message. Grohl has been candid about its meaning, telling Consequence, “‘Asking for a Friend’ is a song for those who have waited patiently in the cold, relying on hope and faith for their horizon to appear. Searching for ‘proof’ when hanging by a wish until the sun shines again.”
Fittingly, that sense of waiting reflects Foo Fighters’ own journey — with this single, they’ve moved past Metallica on the all-time Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, claiming fourth place outright.
