He played it yesterday and said it's been #1 in the US for "8 or 9 weeks". I'm clueless, and frankly thought it was rather bland. Gaz will know the chart scoop, I'm sure.

yeah, i don't even remember what it sounded like, and i just heard it.

Actually, it's one of the few singles that's really impressed me this year so far.  I *hated* Mario's previous hit -- a needless and misguided cover of Biz Markie's "Just a Friend" sans the humor -- so I wasn't expecting to like this one at all.  But something about that backing track with what sounds like concerned waterfowl just engages me like aural crack.
