Week 456 – November 23rd, 2019

An intense music week is ending now. Emma is holding the top spot for a fourth week with “Io sono bella” (#1, “I am beautiful”) from her new album “Fortuna”. I gave this album a shot and I’ve to admit that this one is good, but not as brilliant as “Schiena” (“Back”) is in my eyes. I will definitely by this one which will be the third non-English album I’m going buy this year. Leading the rest of the pack is Selena Gomez. Her song “Lose you to love me” (#2) climbed up one spot. This song switched the spot with 7 times #1 “Higher love” (#3) by Kygo & Whitney Houston. Their song is now in its 13th week within the Top 3 which is absolutely astonishing. Next in line is “Can we pretend” (#4) by Pink feat. Cash Cash. Up three spots and into the Top 5 is Swiss dialect pop by Hecht. It is definitely a surprise that their song “Besch ready für die Liebi vo mer?” (#5, “Are you ready for the love with me?”) entered the Top 5 and because of the fact that most of the songs are really “old” in this part of the chart there is a big chance for this song entering the Top 3.

“Besser mit dir” (#6, “Better with you”) by Jeanette Biedermann left the Top 5 after dropping one spot. Also down one spot are “Büdl an da Wond” (#7, “Picture on the wall”) by Edmund and “Castles” (#8) by Freya Ridings. Dance pop single “Figure it out” (#9) by Lithuanian DJ Jovanni feat. Swedish act Youth Appeal is holding its spot. This week’s Top 10 is rounded out with the only new song within the Top 10. “When we were still young” (#10) by Klaas finally entered this part of the chart in its 9th week on chart. This song replaced Mathea’s “Alles Gute” (#11, “Wishing you well”).

Over the last weeks there haven’t been a lot of new entries. This week is different. 19 songs are entering the chart which is near the record. But before I write something about the highest debut I will lead your attention to this week’s greatest gainer. Italian singer Alice Pisano debuted two weeks ago with a cover of an A-Ha classic. This week “Take on me” (#59) sprinted up the chart from outside the Top 80 into the Top 60. This cover has the chance to reach a notable spot. So let’s talk about this week’s highest debut. No, it isn’t Kate Voegele’s new single “French” which has been released on Thursday and I first listened to on Saturday. Maybe this song will be here next week. The highest debut is the new single by Canadian singer Lennon Stella. Her song “Kissing other people” (#41) missed the Top 40 by one spot. I really like this song about the ending of a relationship. This one could be the one which brings her into the Top 10. Although I bought and charted her “Love, me”-EP this one could be her signature song for me. “Kissing other people” is also the only Top 50 debut.

The 2nd best debut is by British singer HRVY. I’ve charted him twice back in 2018. “Talk to ya” peaked at #91 and “Personal” at #86. So his new one “Million ways” (#52) outperformed his previous chart hits in its first week on chart. This is a good start and I believe that this song will end in the Top 30 at least. One spot behind there is country pop by Jordan Davis. On his new single “Cool anymore” (#52) he is featuring singer Julia Michaels. Julia Michaels seems to be really busy this year. I’ve the feeling the she is releasing song after song after song. At the moment I’m also charting her with her solo single “If you need me” (#23). Also debuting in the Top 60 is US singer Teddy Swims. He is known for his cover versions. After YouTube lead me to one of his covers I decided to chart “I can’t make you love me” (#60) which is a cover of a Top 20 hit by Bonnie Raitt. As she hasn’t been very popular in Austria – in Germany she had four songs within the Top 100, but no Top 50 hit and in Austria she has never charted – I’ve not known this particular song. I love this song and his voice so I believe this one could do very well. This could bring two covers “Take on me” by Alice Pisano and “I can’t make you love me” into the Top 10 if everything works out well.

One spot behind this cover song their you can find the new single by German singer Nico Santos. His song “Play with fire” (#61) is his solo chart debut. He recently charted with the duet “Better” with Lena. Next in line is the chart debut “Love don’t hate it” (#62) by singer Duncan Laurence. In May he won the Eurovision Song Contest with “Aracade” which I never charted. Now he debuts with the follow up. One spot behind you can find the next debut which is by Spanish-British singer Au/Ra who is raised in Antigua. Her song “Ghost” (#63) with Alan Walker is part of the soundtrack “Death stranding” for the PC game of the same name. Another debut out of this soundtrack is “Sing to me” (#95) by MISSIO. “Ghost” is followed by three debuts by LANY who are debuting “Malibu nights” (#64), “Run” (#65) and “Valentine’s day” (#66). The title track of their last album “Malibu nights” is ready for a big shot and I believe that this one could continue their success with this album.

Other debuts are “Body back” (#73) by Gryffin feat. Maia Wright, “Club” (#83) by Kelsea Ballerini, “Heimatkaff” (#86, “Hicktown”), “Miss me more” (#87) by 3LAU, “Make me want to” (#88) by Jimmie Allen, “Born to rule” (#89) by Transviolet, “Courage” (#96) by Celine Dion and “Some of you” (#97) by CARYS.
