In 2018 this was the most-played song of the year on European radio.

When Love Takes Over

Sexy Chick

One Love (2009)

When this reached #1 on the UK singles chart, Guetta achieved the rare feat of replacing himself at the top position as he co-wrote and is co-produced the previous chart-topper, The Black Peas' "I Gotta Feeling." Guetta also became the first Frenchman to achieve more than one #1 hit in the UK.

Titanium

Nothing But The Beat (2011)

Guetta said about the track: "That song is interesting because it's different from anything else on the album. All of the guests on the album are from pop and R&B, and 'Titanium' is a little bit like a UFO flying over it all because Sia is a more of an indie artist." The song was Guetta's fifth #1 single in the UK, his fourth as lead artist. However, it was Sia's first ever visit to the top spot. Sia wrote the lyric in 40 minutes. She tweeted: "It's amazing that 40 minutes of my life and zero promo turned into my most successful song to date."
