Week 325 – May 20th, 2017

It had been a rather calm week. If you’re looking for action then I’ve to disappoint you. There are some position changes and the highest debut can only be found outside the Top 70. But first things first. German Wincent Weiss is defending his top position with “Nur ein Herzschlag entfernt” (#1, “Only a heartbeat away”). This week he is leading in front of Leslie Clio. The album release pushed her single “And I’m leaving” (#2) up one spot and another #1 by her is absolutely in reach. While Leslie Clio climbed up former #1 “Wasn’t easy” (#3) by GJan dropped one spot. Also up one spot are the next two songs in line. Canadian singer Shawn Mendes is now only one spot away from a first Top 3 hit on my chart with his catchy “There’s nothing holdin’ me back” (#4). Also up one spot is the biggest R&B hit on my chart at the moment. For Tinashe “Flame” (#5) is her first hit in my Top 5.

Shawn Mendes and Tinashe are pushing Mighty Oaks back. Their song “Be with you always” (#6) dropped two spots and is beside Leslie Clio’s 2nd Top 10 hit “Darkness is a filler” (#10) the greatest dropper in this week’s edition. Between Adel Tawil’s “Ist da jemand” (“Is someone there”) and “Hard love” (#9) by Needtobreathe feat. Andra Day the only Top 10 debut can be found. It is by Cold War Kids. Their song “Can we hang on?” (#8) is the bands 2nd Top 10 hit from “LA Divine”.

As a matter of fact that there are merely debuts within the Top spots of my chart the rest of the review is very short. The greatest gainer of the week is “Rise” (#40) by Selena Gomez which climbed up 11 spots in its 8th week on chart. The highest debut is by my favourite artist Anouk. I finally debut the promotional single and the first two official singles from her latest album “Fake it till we die”. As I pointed out in the past this album isn’t as good as “Queen for a day”, but it is better than expected. The highest out of three debuts is “Burn” (#73) followed by “I just met a man” (#74). Then there is “Down Daddy down” (#98) which I don’t now why she has a song like this in her repertoire. This song is definitely not her best work and so you should not wonder when this song leaves my chart by next week.

Other debuts are “Hot2Touch” (#81) by Felix Jaehn, Hight & Alex Aiono, “Ex” (#87) by James TW, “Can’t stop thinking about you” (#88) by Heterogenius – I discovered this band when this song was played on the Netflix show “Las Chicas Del Cable”, but I didn’t find out anything about this project and so feel free to give me some information like the country where this project is from –, “Salt” (#92) by B.Miles, “Slow hands” (#93) by Niall Horan and “Good life” (#94) by Sweet California.
