Attention - Song by Charlie Puth

"Attention" is a song recorded and produced by American singer Charlie Puth. Co-written with Jacob Kasher, the track was released through Artist Partner Group and Atlantic Records on April 21, 2017 as the lead single from Puth's second studio album Voicenotes. 

Commercially, the song was an international success, becoming Puth's 2nd most successful single and has reached number one in Israel, Latvia, and Russia as well as the top 10 in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Lebanon, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
"Attention" has peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, making it Puth's third top ten single, his highest-charting as a lead artist. He also led the Radio Songs all-format airplay chart for four weeks.
On Billboard's Dance/Mix Show Airplay, "Attention" gave Puth his first number-one on this chart as a solo artist in its September 2, 2017 issue.


The original idea of "Attention" began to develop in 2016 when Charlie Puth started to record bits of the song while he was on tour in Japan. You can hear this audio at the end of the official music video for attention.

The official music video for Attention was released on April 24 2017. The girl in the video is Samara Weaving. It reached a billion views on 24th August 2019.
In an interview, Charlie Puth reveals that there are many layers to the song. He says - “The cool thing about my song is that there are actually 200 vocals on it that you can’t hear most of the time – it’s all about the feeling of the song. It adds layers to the song and it makes it thicker. It’s more enjoyable to listen to.”
