Reddit r/Austin (TX):

Why is 94.7 obsessed with Haley Reinhart's "Can't help falling in love" to the point where they play it multiple times everyday?

While CHFIL has been slowly fading on the Kworb HAC chart and now sits at 39, on the AC chart it has been holding its own and is currently at 18. Moreover, recently it has been continuing to reach larger audiences than on previous days on the AC stations. Today' chart shows it reaching more people on AC stations that ever before. While there are more HAC stations, the song seems to continue to reach new listeners. Her estimated sales of the song actually has bumped up a little this past week, from 4K to 5K.

The last couple of days I have been remembering Renee Hopkins, missing her so much in my life. On one of our first dates we went to the park. She swung on the swings while I played my mandolin and sang this song to her. Seeing this brought it all to the surface and love escaped from my eyes down my cheeks to my heart... May you all have this deep of a love in your life.

When I heard the Ingrid Michaelson version years ago and shared it with my best friend, she said it explained mine and my boyfriend's relationship. And it did perfectly. Things moved fast and we said it wasn't smart. We shouldn't move so fast. But yet, we couldn't help it. The Ingrid version though, for as much as I loved it, was a little melancholy. I heard this version (yes, first on the Extra commercial) and said that's perfect.

We will be using this is in someway at our wedding in October. I always saw it as a walking down the aisle song, but he likes it as a first dance. Either way, what a beautiful song and glad we will be using it. Love the Elvis version too, but her voice is beautiful for this.

CHFIL went recurrent on HAC on Monday after 140 days on the charts. On AC at 120 days, CHFIL keeps pulling along with new peaks in spins and audience. Thanks Chicago.

wikipedia:

Recurrent rotation refers to a group of songs still frequently aired on a contemporary hit radio station even several months or even years after the initial debut. It is also used to describe core songs in other radio formats as well. Most charts have special rules to determine when a song has become recurrent, at which point they are removed from current charts (such as the Billboard Hot 100) and placed on special "recurrent charts." Recurrent charts tend to be more static, with less week-to-week changes in popularity, than current charts.

...Songs that survive in recurrent rotation typically form the basis of radio formats as years advance. A hit song that is left out of recurrent rotation will eventually become known as a "forgotten 45," a name derived from the fact that singles used to be released on 45 RPM records.
