James Arthur tops the Irish Charts with "Say You Won't Let Go"
Wrapping up the week, we take a look at the music charts, where James Arthur's "Say You Won't Let Go," is at number 1. The X-Factor winner debuted the track on his new album Back from the Edge. It's been a controversial song as of late, as Irish band The Script has pointed out similarities between the song and their track from 2008, "The Man Who Can't be Moved." The Script is reported to be preparing to sue Arthur over the song, but that hasn't stopped it from rising up in the charts.
Joining Arthur in the high rankings are again the Chainsmokers, collaborating with Halsey for their song "Closer," which has stayed strong on the charts for the past 12 weeks and today is listed as number 2. Following the Chainsmokers is Sia, working with Kendrick Lamar on her song "The Greatest." Calvin Harris and Niall Horan also earned spots in the top ten, and the new Little Mix single, "Shout Out to My Ex," has reached number 6 in its first week. Listen to the top single, "Say You Won't Let Go," below.
