Closer - The Chainsmokers & Halsey - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Every once in a while, a collaboration comes along that ends up being a game-changer for both artists involved. “Closer,” the 2016 smash single by American DJ duo The Chainsmokers in collaboration with American pop singer Halsey, is a great example of this. Not only was the song a massively successful pop single, but it also became the very first Number 1 hit for both The Chainsmokers and Halsey on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Lyrically, “Closer” deals with a romantic reconnection after a breakup. It was written by Andrew Taggart, Halsey, Shaun Frank, Freddy Kennett, Isaac Slade, and Joe King. It was produced by the Chainsmokers (Andrew Taggart and Alexander “Alex” Pall). The song was a massive hit, staying at the top of the chart for 12 consecutive weeks. In 2018, two years after its release, the song was certified diamond by the RIAA for sales of 10 million units in the United States. It was also nominated for a Grammy in the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance category.
