Hold on, Christina Grimmie. You’re going to the upper reaches of the iTunes Single Sales Chart.
Performed on Monday’s Top 10 edition of “The Voice,” Grimmie’s rendition of Drake’s “Hold On, We’re Going Home” exploded into the iTunes Top Ten. Currently number eight, it will surely remain in the top ten when the voting closes at 12PM ET.
In doing so, it will secure the contestant the 5x iTunes vote multiplier.

First among those is Kristen Merlin’s “Let Her Go.” Presently #40, the song is Merlin’s second consecutive number to land in the top 100. Audra MacLaughlin’s “You Lie” follows at #48.
