Week 508 – November 21st, 2020

I’m still teaching my students from home and listening to a lot of music. For now four weeks K-Pop band Blackpink are topping the chart with their recent smash “Lovesick girls” (#2). Directly behind Kesha’s “Little bit of love” (#2) can be found. New in the Top 3 is another song by Italian singer Emma. Her album cut “Mascara” (#6) climbed up three spots and is so caught between non-moving songs. Next in line is French singer Wejdene with her single “Coco” (#4) and then there is Kygo’s hit with Donna Summer. I really like “Hot stuff” (#5) and maybe this song will take the last step to the reign.

Down three spots is former #1 “Midnight sky” (#6) by Miley Cyrus. So this song swapped spots with “Mascara”. The next two songs in line are also non-moving in this week’s edition. So “Latina” by Emma at #7 and “Vielleicht verliebt” (“Maybe in love”) #8 are stuck. New in the Top 10 is the very sad song “Macarena” (#9) by Austrian singer Ina Regen. For her this the 1st Top 10 hit. And last but not least I’ve to mention that “Tick tock” (#10) by Clean Bandit & Mabel feat. 24kGoldn is another song in this part of the chart which is holding its spot.

Last week Céline debuted at #59 with her new one “Überall” (#35, “Everywhere”). This week this song is the greatest gainer of the week after climbing up 24 spots making this song to become her biggest hit up-to-date. As last week none of this week’s debuts entered the Top 50. The highest debut is by Jellina who had last year a hit on my chart with “Alles” (“Everything”). This week she debuts with “Feuer & Benzin” (#55, “Fire & gasoline”). I really like this one and it is absolutely possible that “Feuer & Benzin” is doing as well as “Überall”. Directly behind the 2nd highest debut can be found. It is by Irish singer Rea Garvey who is more famous in Germany, Switzerland and Austria than in Ireland. So it is no surprise that he can be found on my chart every now and then. This week he debuts with the 3rd single from his new album “Hey Brasil”. For the work on “The one” (#56) he teamed up with German DJ VIZE who also produced the latest Mark Forster single “Bist du okay” (#21, “Are you okay”). The third debut in a row is by Matilda feat. Dagny with “Anyone else” (#57).

For the German speaking music fans I’ve to point out that this week you can find Luci van Org on my chart too. Maybe you’ll ask who is Luci van Org. In 1993 (back then I was “only” 13) Luci van Org founded the group Lucilectric and in 1994 they had two hits with “Hey Süßer” (“Hey sweetheart”) and “Mädchen” (“Girls”). “Mädchen” had been a big hit in Germany, Switzerland and of course Austria, but “Hey Süßer” reached #1 in Austria while it had only been a minor hit in Germany and Switzerland. Because of that Lucilectric is considered as one-hit-wonder in these both countries. 26 years later (I’m really old!) she teamed up with ÉASY formally known as ÉSMaticx. On ÉASY’s single “Nicht mehr als Freunde” (#97) she is singing the refrain from her biggest hit “Mädchen”. For me she could have sung a bigger part, but hey she is having a comeback for me and that’s all that matters.

Other debuts are “Nobody else” (#75) by LANY, “Things I can’t say” (#76) by Spencer Crandall feat. Julia Cole, “All night” (#82) by PRIZM, “That won’t save us” (#83) by Against The Current, “Use your love” (#87) by Sam Feldt & The Him feat. GoldFord, “Nie gesagt” (#94) by KLAN feat. Mia. and “Never meant to break your heart” (#98) by Andrew Swift.
