Week 238 – September 19th, 2015

Leslie Clio know as the Queen of the Chart is still smiling from the top. “All the other fools” (#1) withstand the pressure by Cro who is attacking the #1 with “Bye bye” (#2). The German-Austrian Top 3 is complete by Austrian band Tagtraeumer. They returned after a week of absence with “Brücken zum Mond” (#3). Finally Marla Blumenblatt climbed up one spot. “Sag einfach ja” (#4) left #5 after three consecutive weeks. She has the Top 3 for her eyes, but it is hard to say if she will do this last step, but she could be glad to reach this peak. While the top songs are all from Germany and Austria this week only #5 was left for another country. This spot is occupied by Swedish superstar Zara Larsson. Her wonderful “Lush life” (#5) is rounding out this part of the chart. Recently Zara Larsson released “Never forget you” with MNEK, but I personally don't get a connection with this song. So “Never forget you” will possible never be charted.

Outside the Top 5 the German-Austrian domination is going on. Only two acts in the section between #6 and #10 are not from my home country or the big neighbour. The 1st one is “Someone” (#6) by Kelly Clarkson. Kelly Clarkson had several #1 hits and therefore the chances are big that she could break this domination. But not only because she had #1’s. “Someone” is a very good song and one of my favourites of the “Piece by piece” album. The 2nd is “Leave a trace” (#8) by Chrvches. Last week this song knocked at the door to the Top 5. This week it dropped two spots and it seems that the Top 10 run will end this week. So let’s go back to the domination songs from Germany and Austria. Wanda’s minimalistic “Bussi baby” (#7) is holding stable while Upper Austrian local heroes Krautschädl climbed up one spot with “Da Sommla” (#9). By next week it is possible that Krautschädl has two Top 10 hits, because they released their 2nd single from their new album “Immer mit da Ruhe” (“Always with tranquillity”) and they currently have a run. The last but not least song in this section is “Do it again” (#10) by Madeline Juno.

As I mentioned a few times at the moment my chart is dominated by songs from Germany and Austria. 31 songs are from Germany and 13 songs are from Austria. That’s more than 40 %. I can’t remember the last time such a domination by these two country occurred. It’s absolutely amazing that there is such great music from these two countries out there. Beside the seven songs in the Top 10 four more songs are fighting to get a spot in this part. The highest charted act who is trying to enter is Granada which is the side project by Effi. “Palmen am Balkon” (#12) has a summer theme and although the summer months ended there is a good chance to see this song in the Top 10. The next one is “Frei” (#13) by Dykris. This song has everything the big hits “Supergirl” (#28) or “Ain’t nobody” (#65) have which dominated the charts in Germany and Austria for months. Unfortunately this song is in German so that Dykris is mostly overseen. Then there is “Astronaut” (#16) by German superstars Sido and Andreas Bourani. This critical song is climbing up the chart in its 5th week and there is no end in sight. The 5th song to mention is “Nacktbaden” (#17). Kompass Nord are walking in the footsteps of Tagtraeumer and can now celebrate their first Top 20 hit.

And how could it be otherwise the highest new entry is by a German act. You all know her from this year’s preferences. It is Leslie Clio who is leading the new entries. “Eureka” (#36) is the fourth single from her 2nd album of the same name. Two of these singles debuted directly within the Top 10 and one (“All the other fools”) debuted in the Top 20. “Eureka” ’s debut outside the Top 30 could be interpreted as a sign of weakness. On the other side many debuts over the last weeks are hanging around at their debut spot which is also no good sign. But on the other side you can say that the concurrence is very high in these days. I really like this song. It is possible to see this song climbing up the chart very fast. Is it possible for Leslie Clio to earn her 4th #1 this year? It’s hard to predict, but everything is thinkable.

Other debuts are “Wild & free” (#61) by Lena, “Herz über Kopf” (“Heart over head”, #85) by Joris, “Wach ich” (“Wake I”, #86) by Elenka, “Bedingungslos” (“Unconditionally”, #87) by Sarah Connor, “Balance” (#88) by Teesy, “Drive” (#89) by Oh Wonder, “Criminals” (#94) by MS MR, “Hands in the air” (#95) by Mousse T. feat. Brooke Fraser and “Take me up” (#96) by Coleman Hell.
