Year-End Review 2012 - Spots 60 - 51

This time you could find the world biggest hit in 2012 "Call me maybe". It's her first Top 100 hit. Let us find out where she is.


60. Caro Emerald - Absolutely me

This year’s best song from Caro Emerald is “Absolutely me”. This song was her second Top 10 hit back in February when it reached #10 for a single week. At the moment it seems that she doesn’t release a new album in 2013.

59. Nickelback - Lullaby

With their third single from their album “Here and now” Nickelback got their second Top 10 hit after “When we stand together” (#91 in 2011). “Lullaby” is a good track and so far their best chart hit for me. But I prefer their older stuff like “How you remind me”.

58. Cœur de Pirate – Danse et danse

With “Danse et danse” Canadian chanson singer Cœur de Pirate continued her good run in 2012. This song peaked at #9 in the middle of March. She placed one more song in the Top 100. It’s “Golden baby” her biggest hit so far.

57. Katy Perry - Part of me

Katy Perry has it a little bit hard on my chart. A lot of her songs failed to get into top positions. With this song it was different. Early April this song entered the Top 10 and peaked at #10 for two weeks. Her latest release of “Teenage dream” also reached the Top 30, but failed to get higher.

56. Alanis Morissette - Woman down

Alanis Morissette’s comeback is great. Four years to wait is a long time for one of my favorite artists. “Woman down” is the first of three songs in this countdown and it’s her only song except “ ‘til you” which didn’t reach #1. “Guardian” and her smash hit “Receive” will come soon.

55. Sam Gray - This girl
 
Fairly unkown is British singer Sam Gray. “This girl” is a swinging title and a non-album release. The Woo Hoo before the refrain made this song unique. So far it’s his best release. I’m waiting for more in this style. 

54. Christina Perri - Jar of hearts

We here in Austria were a little bit late with “Jar of hearts”. At the end of December 2011 this song finally made it to my home country. And then Christina Perri debuted on my chart too. “Jar of hearts” is her highest ranked song which peaked at #7 in February. 

53. Viky Red - If you ever feel

Marginally better than “Jar of hearts” did “If you ever feel”. Viky Red is a Romanian singer who tried to reach the Eurovision Song Contest in 2012. The Romanians decided to send another song to Azerbaijan. I personally think this dance song could have been the better choice.

52. Ryan Star - Stay awhile

Last year Ryan Star entered the chart with “Start a fire”. This year his next single “Stay awhile” also reached the Top 10 easily. With this song he managed to reach #10 in June, where this song stayed for three weeks.

51. Carly Rae Jepsen - Call me maybe

When “Call me maybe” finally started its breakout in March 2012 in Austria I was finally over with this maybe song of the year in the world. It’s a carryover from 2011, but it peaked at the end of January at #6. For a song which didn’t reach #1 it had a very long activity on my chart. Unfortunately “This kiss” has the same problem like “Call me maybe” which will also be a carryover in the year-end review of 2013. But she has one more song with “Good time” to come.

Week 96 – December 29th, 2012

With the last chart of the year an area is going to an end. After eight consecutive weeks Alanis Morissette has to give up the top position with “Receive” (#2). Slipping down made the way free for – no it isn’t Scouting For Girls – Lifehouse feat. Natasha Bedingfield. Their song “Between the raindrops" stole the #1 in the very last moment while “Without you” (#3) dropped one spot. Two new songs complete the Top 5. First to mention is Samantha Jade. Her Australian X-factor winning single “What you’ve done to me” (#4) shot straight into this section. And Carly Rae Jepsen is completing with “This kiss” (#5). Apart from Samantha Jade’s Top 10 debut Emma is back. “Maledetto quell giorno” climbed up 5 spots. These songs replaced “Your body” (#16) by Christina Aguilera and “Des geht si ned aus” (#11) by Christine Hödl.

In promising positions are Kelly Clarkson with “Catch my breath” (#13) and The Storm with “Raver” (#12) apart from a possible return of “Des geht si ned aus”. The highest new entry is another X-factor winning single. This time it comes from Italy. Chiara Galiazzo won this contest. Her single had a #1 debut on the Italian chart. On my chart she debuts at #17 with “Due respiri” (Two breaths). For a second week the project between Angelika Vee and Kylian Mash is the greatest gainer of the week. This time “Ca$h out” (#39) climbed up 21 spots.

Beside the 12 new entries not only official singles are placed. “What if we were real” (#51) by Mandisa and “New York City” (#89) by Among Savages are these songs. I haven’t found any information about releasing these songs as singles, but I like these songs so I decided to chart them. Other new entries are “Take it home” (#57) by Johnny Ruffo, “Let us move on” (#66) by Dido feat. Kendrick Lamar, “Don’t save me” (#82) by Haim, “Holding on to you” (#88) by Twenty One Pilots, “Indigo” (#90) by Frida Sundemo, “Before I die” (#91) by Papa Roach, “Kiss goodnight” (#92) by Tyler Shaw, “Wild child” (#95) by Juliet Simms and “Wenn du mich liebst” (#100, If you love me) by Maria Levin.
