So new year, old rules. :rolleyes: It's official, France won't be adding download sales into this chart until at least January 2012. :zzz:
There's a French release schedule? I need to see that :o It's really dsiappointing that they won't add downlaods. I might try a combined chart later.

Oh great. :( 'Heartbeat' is still charting in the HET30 as its been #1 in Slovakia and Lithuania recently. Wouldn't be at all surprised if this went as high as #2 (or even outsell Israel). Black Eyed Peas won't chart for another three weeks? :drama:

Lolita - Joli Garçon #63 & #64 :o I wonder if it can become a hit in France, she's german. Higher by Taio/Kylie is most likely top10 combined. Alexandra Stan - Mr Saxobeat, seems like the next romanian dance hit to do well in France. The top120 is full of releases that haven't charted before, even by established french artists.

Indeed :teresa:

 

Then there are things like Firework getting a release, but not Teenage Dream. At the end of the day, it just looks weird.

Just YTed that, love it, it's soooo Aqua though :lol:

 

 

It's in a really bad way this chart. They may as well add downlaods because the only place CD singles are selling is online anyway, I went to the Paris flagship stores of Virgin and FNAC when I was in Paris last September, only FNAC had a CD single section, and most of the hits were out of stock. I asked in Virgin, they said "there's no such thing anymore" :mellow:

Sorry, I'm a bit out of the loop with the French charts atm, but I thought I read in a thread here last year that they were going to finally include downloads in the official chart. :( Why on earth wouldn't they?

 

Also, I know it's been on the charts for 10 weeks, but Rene La Taupe have released another single!?! :drama:

I don't know, perhaps the record industry objected. But yes, it seems funny animated characters can have extended chart careers in France (see Bébé Lily).

 

Anyway I worked out a combined chart for last week, the full top 50 for this week isn't up on chartsinfrance. I will post it here for now, but move it to another thread if people want (and I might keep posting it...)

Not perfect but better. The top 10 looks sort of normal.

I would've thought 'The Time (Dirty Bit)' would be top 10 combined considering it was #1 on France iTunes for about 3 weeks. Israel has become the new iTunes no. 1 in France in the last week or two.
This is just a synthesis. I don't have access to sales figures unfortunately. I presume downloads are bigger than Physical sales (that's how I broke ties) but virginmega.fr is a very popular download site too.

I'll believe it when I see it. That French release schedule makes depressing reading. The fact 'Heartbeat' has only just entered whilst most countries have already moved on to 'Tonight (I'm Loving You' really does emphasise how behind the times France are.

There's a French chart which contains downloads and airplay. It gives a good picture of the French music experience I think. :thumbup:
