April 29, 201015 yr Heard this in November when the Video came out, most played on my Last FM since! Listen to 'Up Saw Liz' - Stromae, I find it so addictive, and he says the lyrics 'Up saw liz' is garbage! A la, O-Zone? Wow! That's a very good song too. Also, Alors on Danse has climbed up to #67 in Canada!!!!! :cheer: I don't know how far it can get without it being played on most of the radio stations though.
May 2, 201015 yr Stromae should be no. 1 in any Dutch singles chart if its lead on Netherlands iTunes is anything to go off.
May 2, 201015 yr The top 40 chart is very biased towards middle of the road English music, because it includes airplay from certain radio stations.
May 2, 201015 yr Author It'll go #1 on the top40 too eventually, it debuted inside the top10 last week, few songs do that.
May 2, 201015 yr Yeah, #1 is a given right now. It debuted at #8 so no doubt it'll be #1 in a few weeks.
May 2, 201015 yr Alors on Danse has climbed 4 places to #63 in Canada. And it's now #1 in Europe, for the 3rd time (1st time was in March, 2nd time in April), replacing Telephone.
May 3, 201015 yr Author Probably ages, all these reached #2: Kate Ryan - Ella Elle L'a Kate Ryan - Desenchantée In-Grid - Tu Es Fouto Alizee - Moi Lolita Manau - La Tribu De Dana and K-Maro and then Nadiya only made the top20, so I can't think of anything else that's recent-ish
May 4, 201015 yr #14 I-Tunes Sweden #20 I-Tunes Finland Interesting. ^_^ Has Stromae been added to Norway iTunes yet?
May 4, 201015 yr I recently got around to listening to the video clip you posted in your chart thread Hits, this song actually isn't that bad... It's not going to set my world on fire but it's better than I expected it to be.

It's not going to set my world on fire but it's better than I expected it to be. I thought that when it first entered my chart at no. 10 but it started leaking into my brain and now it's all about the "alors on danse", the repetitive saxophone sample and the "alors on chantes (la la laa)". :D Give it time, it will set your world on fire. :w00t: Or perhaps dent your top 50 at...ooh let's see, no. 46? :D
May 4, 201015 yr Alors on Danse was a grower for me. I saw it was European number-one, so I thought I better give it a listen. At first I thought it was okay, but I found the saxophone a bit annoying. The other 3 European number-ones this year were Bad Romance, Tik Tok and Meet Me Halfway, (and now also Telephone) and, at first, I really thought Alors on Danse paled in comparison to those songs, but now I think it's just as good. My favourite parts of the song are the "La la la la" bit and the bits of the instrumental, that start about 30 seconds into the song, and recur throught the song at various points (I don't know how to describe it with words :(). I also don't notice the saxophone so much anymore. It blends into the song well, but I thought it was quite peculiar to hear such an instrument in a song in 2010, when I first heard it. :D
