Calvin Harris is no stranger to #1 tracks in the UK but this collaboration has knocked Lily Allens popular rendition of “Somewhere Only We Know” right out of the running upon its debut. Under Control by Alesso and Calvin Harris featuring the sultry vocals of Hurts frontman, Theo Hutchcraft jumped straight to the top, surpassing Gary Barlow’s “Let Me Go” to rule the charts in the first week alone. This is Alesso’s highest spot on the charts since “Calling (Lose My Mind)”. Alesso and Calvin Harris – both big names in their own right – were bound to come together and create magic. The instant hit has been received similarly well in other countries as well, reinforcing the notion that dance music has gone mainstream, and isn’t just for the electro hipsters anymore.
Calvin Harris, Alesso and Hurts know what it’s like to be on top!
