Week 164 – April 19th, 2014

Anouk is still smiling from the top. “I won’t play that game” (#1) is leading the pack for a third week while her other smash “You & I” (#2) is blocking all other songs from reaching the Top 2. New at the podium is Cuban singer Chila Lynn. Her fresh song “When love …” (#3) is the one song which could bust the Anouk double pack at the top. “When love …” was the only song within the Top 5 which climbed up one spot. Generally there was little action in this week’s Top 10. Matt Cardle finally placed another song from his “The fire” album in the Top 10. “Empire” (#9) reached its peak within the Top 10 in its 10th week and replaced Kristina Maria’s “Bang U up” (#13).

Three songs are already hot for reaching the top part of the chart. Heavy knocking is Neon Trees’ “Sleeping with a friend” (#11) which overtook “Light me up” (#12) by Birdy. For both acts could it be their first Top 10 hit on my chart. And then there is Norwegian singer Tone Damli who has also no Top 10 hit so far. Her best charting song has been “Look back” which peaked at #12 back in June 2012. “Heartkill” (#14) is in its 4th week and could outperform this song easily by next week. Perhaps I shouldn’t forget about Cascada’s latest dance song “Blink” (#18). Cascada climbed up nine spots which is pretty good. But I think that Cascada won’t be in the Top 10 next week.

2014 is marked by two artists so far. Anouk is topping the chart since March and shortly before Italian singer Emma dominated with “L’amore non mi basta” (#8) which is still in the Top 10 in its 23rd week. At the moment Emma has one more song in the Top 10 with “La mia felicità” (#7) and with “Trattengo il fiato” (#17) another song in the Top 20. This week Emma debuts with her Eurovision Song Contest entry “La mia città” (#36). “La mia città” is a typical song from her and should easily reach the Top 20. The song itself can be found on the re-released “Schiena” album as a bonus cut.

Two more songs are debuting within this week’s Top 50. The 2nd best new entry comes by British singer Rita Ora. Her latest single “I will never let you down” (#47) is far different from her previous work. When I first listened to this song I didn’t found it special, but this song unfolds its impact after a few listens. “I will never let you down” should easily outperform “Radiocative” which is her biggest hit on my chart up-to-date. The other new song is “Isso” (“It is so”, #49) by Mateo. Mateo is part of German group Culcha Candela who had several hits among with “Monsta” or “Hamma!” (their only #1 in Germany). “Isso” impresses with a very catchy, nearly perfect refrain while the lyrics itself are not as good as the refrain. The greatest gainer of the week is Foxes’ “Let go for tonight” (#56) which climbed up 23 spots. “Heart cry” (#58) by Pixie Lott also climbed up 23 spots.

Other new entries are “Me and my broken heart” (#82) by Rixton, “Sympathy” (#83) by Madeline Juno, “Don’t care” (#84) by Sandra Lyng, “Breathing” (#89) by Jonas & The Massive Attraction, “Sexy socialite” (#91) by Chromeo, “Kryptonite” (#92) by Danny Fernandes, “Miss Calculation” (#93) by Elina Born, “Feels like coming home” (#94) by Jetta, “More than ever” (#98) Kings feat. Michael Tsaousopoulos, “Neon lovers” (#99) by Soraya, “Eye in the sky” (#100) by Parralox.
