Week 274 – May 28th, 2016

No surprise at the top of my chart. For a sixth week “Bis es weh tut” (#1, “Until it hurts”) by Luxuslärm feat. Max Mutzke is topping my chart. This is now the longest strike at #1 in 2016, but the question is: “Could they do better?”. The answer will be given next week. While “Bis es weh tut” is shining from the top “Changes” (#2) by Leslie Clio has to wait another week. Also in the waiting position is “Seite an Seite” (#3, “Side by side”) by Christina Stürmer which means that the Top 3 remains the same as last week. New at #4 is “Church bells” by Carrie Underwood. The Top 5 is closed by “What you talking about?” (#5) by Peter Bjorn & John.

The bottom half of my Top 10 is opened by Kelly Clarkson. The album cut “Let your tears fall” (#6) climbed up two spots. She is followed by former #1 “Make me like you” (#7) Gwen Stefani. Apropos “Make me like you”. This is the last of six songs performed by an artist who had a #1 song directly placed behind “Bis es weh tut”. Next in line is “Best fake smile” (#8). Last week James Bay peaked at #12 with this song and now it is his first Top 10 hit. Congrats to James Bay for reaching the Top 10. “Best fake smile” isn’t the only new song in the Top 10. The 2nd new song in this part of my chart is “Hungover on heartache” (#9). After a climb of 15 spots Cam reached the Top 10 for a 2nd time. Her 1st Top 10 hit “Mayday” (#31) dropped out of the Top 20 in this edition. Last but not least in the Top 10 “Cheap thrills” (#10) by Sia feat. Sean Paul.

Since weeks this is the first time that Adele has no Top 10 hit. Her former #1 “When we were young” (#12) dropped two spots and so she is out. On the other hand she won’t be out for long, because “Water under the bridge” (#13) climbed up 15 spots and is now placed behind “When we were young”. You should expect her in my Top 10 by next week with this beautiful song. “Water under the bridge” is followed by the highest debut which is by my favourite artist. Anouk’s 2nd (or 3rd which depens on how you count) single from her new album “Queen for a day” finally got its debut. “Run away together” (#14) is now the highest debut since April 9th when Peter Bjorn & John debuted at #16 with “What you talking about?”.

“Run away together” has been released several weeks before, but due to lack of time I had no time to listened to new albums – “Queen for a day” has been released by the end of March. But this week I bought this album and what should I say. I absolutely love this one. It is way better than her previous two albums and for me “Dirty girl” (#81, peak at #8) is the weakest song on this album. Since 2011 I’ve charted every song from her last three albums “To get her together”, “Sad singalong songs” and “Paradise and back again”. “To get her together” had six songs in the Top 10 including four #1 hits and three songs which just missed the Top 20. “Sad singalong songs” was a disappointment for me, but it had two songs in the Top 10 including one #1 hit and two more songs in the Top 20. With “Paradise and back again” she had a good comeback which came along with six songs in the Top 10 including two #1 hits, two more songs in the Top 20 and several songs which just missed the Top 20. So in my eyes “Queen for a day” is better than every mentioned album. So what could you expect when “Dirty girl” is the weakest song on the album? Lot’s of Top 10 hits at least and maybe more #1's than in her “To get her together” area. By the way this album has already a #1 hit. “New day” – was one of my favourite songs last year – had been released as a regular single from her best of album and is now the third track on “Queen for a day”. This could be her year by dominating my chart.

“Run away together” isn’t the only debut in my Top 50. The other is by an Australian girl who had a hit when she was featured on the cover “You don’t own me”. Now she released her new one and with this she finally got her debut on my chart. “Hell of a girl” (#39) got a solid debut and should do well in the near future.

Other debuts are “The fighter” (#58) by Keith Urban feat. Carrie Underwood, “Find me” (#59) by Jun Hyo Seong, “White lightning” (#72) and “Ashes” (#73) by Madi Diaz, “Go ahead and break my heart” (#82) by Blake Shelton feat. Gwen Stefani and “Glowing in the dark” (#90) by The Girl and The Dreamcatcher.
