It is the second straight Top 25 hit for Guetta, whose previous single “Dangerous (featuring Sam Martin)” went as high as #22.

Also new to the weekly Top 25 is DJ Snake & AlunaGeorge’s “You Know You Like It.” Up seven places this week, “You Know You Like It” earns #24 on the strength of its ~2,971 weekly spins.

After two weeks at #26, Echosmith’s “Bright” also makes the leap into the Top 25. The follow-up to the band’s Top 10 hit “Cool Kids” earns the #25 spot this week courtesy its ~2,919 tracking week plays.
