Want You To Want Me

Jason Derulo

Warner Bros. Records

WE SAY

We’re pretty confident you’re aware of this Jason Derulo fella. Three UK No.1 hits, five million singles sold here and 45 million in total globally over the past five years makes him one of the planet’s biggest pop R&B acts. He returns with his latest album Everything Is 4 on June 1 and this first release from it is exploding just about everywhere already. Radio 1’s featured Track Of The Day today (April 21), it was added to Capital 10 weeks upfront and sits on their A list this week. That, along with huge support from Kiss and 1Xtra too, helped put it in the UK’s Top 40 Airplay chart. It’s about to crack Shazam's UK Top 10 with another month to go before release. Stateside, it became the most-added song ever at Top 40 radio and he hit the headlines by being the first artist ever to launch this latest video on dating app Tinder. So what about the track itself? In a nutshell, it’s simply one of the great instantly-appealing feel-good worldwide pop smashes of 2015. Inescapably huge and one of his best to date.
