It’s a great eighth for Banda Los Recoditos…

The Regional Mexican band has added an eighth No. 1 to their ledger as “Vas A Querer Volver” jumps 2-1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart dated January 6.

“It’s great news to start off the year this way,” Rafael Gónzalez and Santos de Jesús Pérez “JeyPi”, lead singers of Banda Los Recoditos tell Billboard. “Being No. 1 on a Billboard chart makes us happy and creates a stronger commitment to work on new music for our fans.”

“Vas a Querer Volver,” which entered the top 10 in its eighth chart week, at No. 8, ascends from the runner-up slot with a 3% increase in audience impressions, to 6.9 million, earned in the U.S. during the December 22-28 tracking week, according to Luminate.

The song ejects Grupo Frontera and Junior H’s “En Altavoz” from the lead and sends it to No. 9 with a 33% decrease, to 4.9 million impressions.

With “Vas a Querer Volver,” Banda Los Recoditos score their eighth champ, dating back to “Ando Bien Pedo,” their longest-charting ruler, with 12 weeks atop in 2010.
