During its first week, 10,000 Hours landed on 39 out of 40 Spotify New Music Friday playlists, while landing in the top 10 on 33 of those playlists.
It launched in the number one slot in 85 countries on Apple Music while quickly reaching the number one spot on iTunes as well.
Dan + Shay caught up with Zane Lowe recently and revealed how the tune came about. “We’ve crossed paths with Justin a few times in the past man and we’ve always kind of towed with the idea of collaborating on something,” Shay explained.
“We had the same manager, Scooter Braun. So I sent it to scooter and it was like, yo hear me out on this. This might be wild.”

Dan + Shay are gearing up to head out on their ‘Dan + Shay The (Arena) Tour,’ hitting the U.S. in 2020.
