Week 359 – January 13th, 2018

“Beautiful trauma” (#1) by Pink defended its title in a tough race against “Pfeile” (#2, “Arrows”) by Austrian band Tagtraeumer. Generally it had been a slow week in music. So the podium is the same as last week, because “Perfect” (#3) by Selena Gomez is holding its spot too. Which also “Never give up on me” (#4) by MisterWives did. Only one song in my Top 5 is new. It is by German rock band Jennifer Rostock. Their song “Haarspray” (#5, “Hairspray”) climbed up three spots to complete their best chart run since their chart topping hit “Ich kann nicht mehr” ("I can't anymore") back in 2011.

Outside the Top 5 there are several position changes. “Dream” (#6) by Bishop Briggs climbed up five spots. For her “Dream” is her 2nd Top 10 hit in a row and the first solo hit. The only song holding its spot is “Achterbahn” (#7, “Rollercoaster”) by Helene Fischer. She is followed by Wanda with their Austrian #1 hit “Columbo” (#8). Up one spot is country pop “Out of the blue” (#9) by Chad Brownlee. And last but not least in the Top 10 is “Fake happy” (#10) by Paramore.

This week I wasn’t listening often music and so many of the new entries are down the chart. They highest debuts are from Kate Voegele’s album “Canyonlands”. I debuted “Bad bad drug” (#58) and “Crooked road” (#59). Her new single is continuing its trend upwards. Last week “Shoot this arrow” (#19) had been the greatest gainer but this week it climbed up only “seven” spots into my Top 20. This week the award of the greatest gainer of the week goes to two country songs. “Stupid” (#50) by Levi Hummon and “This feeling” (#51) by Abby Anderson climbed up twelve spots. The next notable new entry is by Italian singer Emma who had several #1 hits on my chart. This week she returns with her new single “L’isola” (#81, “The island”).

Other new entries are “Strangled love” (#82) by Jennifer Weigel, “Just a song before I go” (#88, a cover of the 1977 hit by Crosby, Stills & Nash) and “Thirteen” (#89, a cover of the Big Star track from their debut album “#1 Record), “Du lebst mich kaput” (#94, “You live me broken”) by Linda Siu feat. Gentleman, “Kawasaki” (#95) by Hecht, “Runaway” (#96) by Cecilia Kallin, “All I want is us tonight” (#97) by Riley Smith and “Plenty far to fall” (#100) by Claren Bowen & Sam Palladio.
