Calvin Harris Trivia: Named by the Guest Star
Ten weeks at number one with Rihanna, two singles with her, and the summer he sang lead himself.
- 'We Found Love' (2011) with Rihanna spent ten weeks at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, his biggest hit. It is one of the safer answers in a quiz on music by decade too.
- Calvin Harris and Rihanna reunited in 2016 for 'This Is What You Came For', which reached the US top three rather than repeating the number one of their 2011 smash 'We Found Love'.
- 'One Kiss' with Dua Lipa (2018) spent eight weeks at number one on the UK singles chart. If you can name it on the first bar, challenge your friends and see who else can.
- His 2017 album 'Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1' packed features onto every track, including 'Slide' with Frank Ocean and Migos and 'Feels' with Pharrell, Katy Perry and Big Sean.
- Calvin Harris was already producing and co-writing for acts like Kylie Minogue and Dizzee Rascal before he sang lead on his own hits 'Feel So Close' and the 2014 single 'Summer'.
How Well Do You Know Calvin Harris's Collaborators?
The number ones are easy points; sorting which guest sang which single is where the lead splits.
The two Rihanna records (spot which is which)
Calvin Harris cut two singles with Rihanna: 'We Found Love' in 2011, which spent ten weeks at number one, and 'This Is What You Came For' in 2016, which stopped in the US top three. They share a voice but not a year, so a guess-the-single round loves to swap them.
The Funk Wav all-star summer (Feels, Slide)
His 2017 album 'Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1' traded EDM drops for summer funk and a stacked guest list. 'Slide' features Frank Ocean and Migos, while 'Feels' adds Pharrell, Katy Perry and Big Sean.
When Calvin sang his own hooks (Feel So Close, Summer)
Calvin Harris had already been producing for other stars, from Kylie Minogue to Dizzee Rascal, when he stepped up to sing lead himself. 'Feel So Close' and the 2014 hit 'Summer' are his own vocal, an easy trap for anyone who assumes every Calvin Harris song has a famous guest.
