Is there a stastical database of song popularity anywhere?

I'm writing an essay about the popularity of music. And we need sources in our essay.
One of the points I wanted to make was how a song like Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones , released in the 60's, is still being played on the radio while songs composed today like Black and Yellow by Wiz Khalifa were played on the radio for a month and haven't been heard since.
But I need a way to statistically or factually say that.
Any help?
