Week 269 – April 23rd, 2016

Last week it had already indicated. There is a new #1 after three weeks with “Make me like you” (#2) by Gwen Stefani at the top. German band Luxuslärm climbed up three spots with support by German singer Max Mutzke. Their song “Bis es weh tut” (#1, “Until it hurts”) is for both their first #1 on my chart. Until today “Atemlos” (“Breathless”) by Luxuslärm had been their biggest hit on my chart reaching the Top 10 late in 2011 (peak #6). “Bis es weh tut” is a beautiful song about the end of a relatioship and deserves to be #1. All of last week’s Top 3 dropped one spot to make this big climb possible. So you find “When we were young” by Adele at #3 and dance song “Cheap thrills” by Sia feat. Sean Paul at #4. The top half of the Top 10 is closed by Leslie Clio’s “Changes” (#5).

“Changes” is new to the Top 5 so former #1 “Hands to myself” (#6) by Selena Gomez had to leave this part of my chart with a drop of one spot. Also dropping down one spot is “Make my love go” (#7) by Jay Sean feat. Sean Paul. This song is on my chart on its way out of the Top 10 while this song is starting to get some airplay all over Europe. Behind this dance song you can find the highest charting country single. It is “Mayday” (#8) by new country star Cam who had two debuts in this week’s edition. Cam is followed by the only new artist in this week’s Top 10. Peter Bjorn & John are giving their comeback in the Top 10 with “What you talking about” (#9) after topping my chart with “Second chance” back in 2011. The Top 10 is rounded out with Italian star Emma and her latest single “Io di te non ho paura” (#10, “I’m not afraid of you”).

Against The Current are a regular guest on my chart, but they had no Top 50 hit until this week. Over the last week’s they released several promotional songs from their debut album “In our bones”. Unfortunately the first three promotional songs didn’t reach my chart, but the fourth one did. “Forget me now” (#37) isn’t really a typical song for Against The Current, but I like the sound and the refrain is catchy. All in all they managed to outperform all their other singles in the first week with “Forget me now”. This song got a solid debut and should reach my Top 20 at least.

Beside “Forget me now” there are three debuts within the Top 50. One is from Germany, one from New Zealand and one from the USA. Let’s start with the one from our dear neighbours Germany. Cassandra Steen is maybe also known outside Germany. She had some hits in the past with the band Glashaus as “When es Liebe ist” (“If it is love”) back in 2001 or “Haltet die Welt an” (“Stop the world”) back in 2005 or as a solo artist with “Darum leben wir” (“This is why we live”) or her biggest one “Stadt” (“Town”) both from 2009. Since this time it was a little bit quiet around her although she had two charting hits for me over the past year’s since I re-started charting. For “Ich laufe” (#48, “I run”) she teamed up with the German New Age band Fahrenhaidt and singer Vincent Malin who was recently featured on the track “Wenn du schläfst” (“If you sleep”). “Ich laufe” is a beautiful and meaningful song. It is absolutely possible that this song will do well on my chart.

The one from New Zealand is by Broods. If you are following my chart then you’ll know that they got two #1's with “Four walls” (back in 2015) and “Everytime” (back in 2014). So far it is an intersting relationship between me and the songs by Broods. Either their songs reach #1 or I didn’t chart them. So it is up to you to guess how far “Free” (#49) will go in the future, but from my actual point of view I don’t see this song as a #1 song. However, who could predict the future? And the last but no least debut with the Top 50 is an album cut from “Untamed” by Cam. “Hungover on heartache” (#50) is now the 2nd Top 50 hit in this edition.

Other debuts are “Sofia” (#63) by Àlvaro Soler, “Call it love” (#65) by Paige Monroe, “Anchor” (#67) by Deep Creek Road, “Better” (#79) by Haley Reinhart, “Burning house” (#86) by Cam, “Runaway” (#87) by Aurora, “People” (#88) by Youth Club, “Beaches” (#89) by Gone In The Sun, “Natural disaster (Win & Woo Remix)” by Molly Moore, “In meiner Seele” (#93, “In my soul”) by Alex Diehl, “What I like” (#94) by Tenterhook, “Pyro” (#95) by Pia Toscano, “Lips” (#96) by The Hearts.
