Having already sent two of their three previous collaborations to the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 (‘Love Me Harder’ – #7 peak, ‘Save Your Tears’ remix – #1 peak), The Weeknd and Ariana Grande are undoubtedly hoping for the same with their latest musical tag team: a revamp of his smash ‘Die For You.’

Initially found aboard the Canadian hitmaker’s 2016 studio album, ‘Starboy,’ the song is currently enjoying an unexpected top 10 run on the Pop charts thanks to a viral response at Tik Tok.

Having peaked at #6 so far, The Weeknd (born Abel Tesfaye) called on Ariana to help give the tune the boost needed to capture the tally’s top spot.

Just days after surprising their respective fan bases with confirmation of their reunion, ‘Die For You’ remix can be heard in full.  Hop inside to listen.
