GAH! What a crap EOY #1! Especially considering the 17 amazing songs (and song at #4 I'm unfamiliar with/song at #13 I'm indifferent to) behind it...

Since we know how Media Control's methods work, Shakira may actually have the best selling single of the year. Media Control's year end charts are normally market-share based.

Yeah, i'm betting on Shakira having the biggest selling single too.

Overall, I think it was a better year in Germany than the UK

I can't disagree with that, the UK charts were largely terrible :lol: I'd have much preferred to have been immersed in Germany's music culture this year. Nearly all of my favourite songs of the year are in here, the same really can't be said about the UK EOY top 20...

Ditto. Awesome to see Glow in here, and Stromae and Hurts in the top 10 :wub:

2 Shakira - Waka Waka 720.000

3 Lena - Satellite 650.000

4 Unheilig - Geboren um zu leben 620.000

Is this the first time when the year-end chart actually covers the entire calender year? In the past years, the year charts were always released during December and in this case IZ would have had no chance to be number one...

Yep.
