Career

Jonas Blue Jonas Blue Talks quotFast Carquot amp quotPerfect Strangersquot Idolator

In 2016 Blue released a tropical house cover of Tracy Chapman's 1988 single "Fast Car". It was his debut single and features the vocals from Dakota. The Jonas Blue version peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart, behind Zayn Malik's "Pillowtalk". Its UK peak meant it charted higher than Chapman's original, which peaked at number five on the chart in May 1988 and a position higher upon a re-release in April 2011. It also remained in the top 10 for 11 weeks. The Jonas Blue version also reached number one in Germany, Sweden, Australia and New Zealand, as well as reaching the number one spot on the US viral chart on Spotify. The single has been certified Platinum in Italy and the UK, 2x Platinum in New Zealand and 3x Platinum in Australia. To date, the track has been streamed over 300 million times on Spotify, and has achieved over 200 million views on Vevo.
