With the 20th anniversary of 9/11 this weekend, I wanted to post a song from the album at #7 on the Billboard 200 album chart this week in 2002 - Bruce Springsteen's "The Rising". One of the tracks from that album, "My City of Ruins", was originally written for an Asbury Park benefit in 2000, but was later performed by Springsteen live at the "America: A Tribute to Heroes" telethon immediately following 9/11 in 2001 and appeared on "The Rising" the following year. The album version and telethon performance are included below.

Today's pick is a song that was released as a single in September of last year. From what I can find, it only reached #41 on Mediabase, although it's hard to tell because the only Mediabase chart info I can find is on a ProBoards forum, and their search engine is awful. From David Guetta and Sia, whose earlier collaboration "She Wolf (Falling to Pieces)" was posted here in 2015, here's "Let's Love".

Did this song sample Pat Benatar's "Love is a Battlefield" for the background music? |

According to Wikipedia, it was influenced by Benatar and sounds similar to "Love Is a Battlefield" but I don't believe it's a direct sample.
Maybe it's another "Blurred Lines" situation?

Last Sunday, I posted the David Guetta and Sia song "Let's Love". Today, I'm posting a different "Let's Love" by the group Echosmith. This week in 2015, it was on the Mediabase chart at #49 and would only go to #47.
