Week 228 – July 11th, 2015

My chart is totally in the hand of German artists. For a 12th week German female singers are topping my chart and for a 2nd week it is Lena. Her beautiful “Traffic lights” (#1) withstand the pressure by New Zealand indie band Broods. Their melancholic song “Four walls” (#2) finished for a 2nd time at the runner’s-up position, but by next week Broods could score their 2nd #1. New at the podium is a familiar face. Leslie Clio switched the spot with herself and now “My heart ain’t that broken” (#3) is back in the Top 3 while “Be with you” (#4) dropped one spot. The Top 5 is closed by Christina Stürmer’s “Was wirklich bleibt” (#5).

The next three spots remained the same like last week. So “Talking body” by Tove Lo can be found at #6, “New day” by Anouk at #7 and “Bad blood” by Taylor Swift at #8. Then there are the two new songs which replaced “Oublie-moi” (#11) and “Hypnotic” (#12). The highest placed new song in the Top 10 is “Lush life” (#9). It is Zara Larsson’s 2nd Top 10 hit so far. Zara Larsson is followed by Madi Diaz. Her new Top 10 hit is “Dancing in the dark” (#10) which brings her up to three Top 10 hits.

Last week I had only one new entry. This week there are five more new entries which brings me up to six new entries. The highest entered the Top 20. It’s by last year’s star. Emma is currently working on her new album. The first single out of this new album she is currently working on is “Occhi profondi” (#14, “Deep eyes”). I hope that this album is as good as her last one which dominated my chart for weeks. “Occhi profondi” is starting good, but in my opinion it is no “L’amore non mi basta”. On the other side this song is good enough to reach my Top 10 very soon.

The 2nd best new entry is by Austrian singer Marla Blumenblatt. Her first single out of her EP “Sag einfach ja” is “Großstadtcowboys” (#25) which dropped five spots this week. The follow up “Sag einfach ja” (#33, “Say just yes”) hasn’t a cool beat like “Großstadtcowboys”, but on the other hand it had a catchier refrain. In the next weeks “Sag einfach ja” should reach the Top 20 and maybe this song is her 2nd Top 10 hit after “Cornetto” hit the Top 10 back in 2013.

Before I write something about the other two new songs in the Top 50 I’ve to inform you who is the greatest gainer of the week. This week’s award goes to Taylor Swift. Her song “All you had to do was stay” did best with a climb of seven spots. Sure seven spots aren’t a big climb, but this week was very slow and no other song climbed up more than Taylor Swift’s song. But let’s go to the two mentioned new songs. The first one is by Demi Lovato. When I first listened to “Cool for the summer” (#48) I thought that is no typical song by her and I wasn’t sure about charting this song. I gave it another listen and I’ve to say that I like this song, but I don’t now how far this song will go in the future. The other song is “You love me?” (#49) by Melissa Steel feat. Wretch 32. Melissa Steel had last year a Top 20 with “Kisses for breakfast” and “You love me?” should do as well as her only Top 20 hit.

The other new entries are “Il tempo non sente ragione” (#80, “Time doesn’t feel right”) by Eros Ramazzotti and the first song in Albanian “Ta kam dhon” (#81) by Anxhela Peristeri.
