“I don’t really, really want fight anymore/ I don’t really, really wanna fake it no more,” Lovato belts on the pre-chorus. “Play me like the Beatles, baby – just let it be/ So come and put the blame on me.”
Since its November release, “Échame la Culpa” has over 950 million YouTube/VEVO views and peaked at Number One on iTunes charts in 59 countries and received a 12-times U.S. Latin Platinum certification. In December, Fonsi became just the third Latin artist ever to simultaneously place two Spanish-language tracks in the Hot 100’s Top 50, Billboard reports.
Lovato recently launched a tour with DJ Khaled in support of her latest LP, 2017’s Tell Me You Love Me. The trek, which stretches throughout March, continues Friday, March 2nd with a show in Inglewood, California.
