Week 144 – November 30th, 2013

And the winner is … . Yes, it is Ben Montague. Once again with “Love like stars”. He is followed by Finnish act Satin Circus. They are on their way to their 2nd straight #1 with “If you love me” (#2). In fact the Top 3 is new except the top spot. Emma’s biggest charting hit up-to-date “Dimentico tutto” (#4) dropped down two spots. But Emma replaced herself with “L’amore non mi basta” (#3) which is getting more and more personal airplay. This brings me directly to the next week where the question only could be Satin Circus or Emma for #1. Behind the Top 4 there are some position changes including the three spots climb for “Let me go” by Avril Lavigne & Chad Kroeger. And there are two new songs in this section. Madeline Juno finally overcome the stop sign. Her debut single “Error” (#9) is now also her first Top 10 hit. For Ben Montague it isn’t a new feeling as for Madeline Juno. “Another hard fall” (#10) is his 2nd Top 10 hit out of two charted songs from his “Tales of flying and falling” album.

For the first time since weeks are “Slow down” (#11) by Selena Gomez and “Going insane” (#12) by Mic Donet out of the Top 10. Since six weeks “Stay” (#13) by Steve Grand is climbing up the chart. This week didn’t change the direction so this song climbed up another seven spots to a new peak. Therefore he is in a good position for next week's Top 10. Pink’s latest smash hit “Walk of shame” (#14) is also doing well while her other songs have it a little bit harder. “Slut like you” (#34) only climbed up one spot and “Beam me up” (#40) climbed up four spots, but these songs could sprint up the chart soon. Especially “Beam me up” which is growing on me. For the first time Lady Gaga reached the Top 20. “Do what U want” (#20) with R. Kelly is so far her best charting song topping “Applause” which peaked at #22 some weeks ago

Now we’ve to go down the chart. Before I write about the highest debut I’ve to point out which song is the greatest gainer of the week. It is a K-Pop song from 9Muses. With “Wild” this South Korean girl group had a Top 10 hit with their first chart appearance this year. The follow up “Gun” (#57) climbed up 23 spots after last week’s debut. “Gun” isn’t the only K-Pop song at the moment on my chart. All others “Love options” (#41) by BESTie and “Number 9” (#49) by T-ara are also on their way up the chart. Not to forget about Australian-South Korean singer Dami Im. Her debut “Alive” (#83) is also on its way up the chart.

In these days several good songs from my home country Austria and also from our neighbour country Germany have been released. The highest new entry comes from German rapper Sido. He changed his style from a typical gangsta rapper to a more interesting rapper. His latest effort “Einer dieser Steine” (#70, “One of those stones”) shows his development. This song is a very soft song with a decent rap part and a very good refrain by Mark Forster who had only one charting song with “Auf diesem Weg” (“On this way”) last year. And I should not forget about the video. This video is so far the best video I saw in 2013. Even you don’t understand German you should watch it. I believe that “Einer dieser Steine” could outperform his catchier song “Bilder im Kopf” (“Pictures in the head”) which peaked at #28 this year.

From Germany into my chart are also Jupiter Jones. They released their song “Rennen + Stolpern” (#90) several weeks before. It took some time, but this song is growing and could end with a respectable chart run. For the first time in a while Tim Bendzko is returning. He is releasing a new album – his 2nd this year – called “Unter die Haut”. The title track “Unter die Haut” (#92, “Under the skin”) with Cassandra Steen is the first single out of this album. This song should easily his best chart performance. In Austria the unknown artist Thomas David had two Top 10 debuts last week. Both songs are out of the TV show “Die große Chance”. “Able” (#72) and “Head out” are debuting this week. Especially “Able” could be a moderate hit on my chart.

Other debuts are “Say something” (#71) by A Great Big World feat. Christina Aguilera, “Free” (#85) by Rudimental feat. Emeli Sandé, “Wrecking ball” (#86) by Miley Cyrus – a lot of airplay in Austria helped her –, “Like a drum” (#88) by Guy Sebastian, “Silent girl next door” (#97) by Como and “Rolling stone” (#100) by Daniel Schuhmacher.
