Jamse, by "taken over this chart" do you mean that you have been making your own version of European Top 20 since 2009? I'd like to look at your version as well!

 

Precisely...I had a bad feeling about the new ET20 since it began 2 years ago so I decided to continue the "original" ET20. I had then wanted to share it here but many prefered this chart as opposed the "original" up until now when it really is a disaster. I´ll post my version here on buzzjack soon.

I thought that it coudn't be worse , but i was wrong............

 

1. ( ** ) Example - Changed The Way You Kiss Me :w00t:

2. ( ** ) Chris Brown & Justin Bieber - Next To You :angry:

3. ( * ) Hurts - Better Than Love :wacko:

4. ( 11 ) Jennifer Lopez Feat. Pitbull - On The Floor :no:

5. ( ** ) Katy Perry Ft. Kanye West - E.T. :rofl:

6. ( ** ) Alexis Jordan - Good Girl :nono:

7. ( 15 ) Britney Spears - I Wanna Go :cheer:

9. ( 2 ) Pitbull & Ne-Yo - Give Me Everything :w00t:

10. ( * ) Enrique Iglesias Feat. Lil Wayne - Dirty Dancer :cheer:

 

I think officially to give up from this chart and to follow the Italian or Greek version from now on................

What the hell. Seriously, this chart is DEAD. RIP European Top20

I have nothing more to say.......................

11. (1) Shakira Featuring Pitbull - Rabiosa

12. (4) Nicki Minaj - Super Bass

13. (6) Katy Perry - Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)

14. (10) Beyonce - Best Thing I Never Had

15. (14) Adele - Rolling In The Deep

16. (3) LMFAO - Party Rock Anthem

17. (5) Rihanna - Man Down

18. (16) Maroon 5 Featuring Christina Aguilera - Moves Like Jagger

19. (8) Black Eyed Peas - Don't Stop The Party

20. (7) Lady Gaga - The Edge Of Glory

Those numbers 20 to 11 are more suitable to be 10 to 1,but the big "proffesionals" in MTV are thinking other wise.It's clear that no longer they care of charts and that's why i no longer care about their version..............

OK, I'll tell you what I think - back in the 80's the chart "European Top 20" started... on MTV Europe. Later there have been other versions of "European Top 20" - in addition to the current MTV Greece and MTV Italy ones, there was MTV Germany's version and I think MTV Romania had another version, too... After the last "real" edition on April 11, 2009 MTV Europe started broadcasting basically a copy of the Eurochart so we thought the successor of the "real" European Top 20 was the version on MTV Latvia and MTV Estonia... But how did that turn out? The "Baltic" version of the chart became as boring and static as MTV Italy's and MTV Greece's nowadays and it finally ended...

So for me there is only one European Top 20 - the one broadcast on MTV Europe. No matter how different the chart can be every week, it has been broadcast on MTV Europe since the 80's and I can only be glad that it's continuing. My biggest fear is that the chart would end. So I'll accept everything just to see it survive - even if there are 20 DIFFERENT SONGS in it each week!

After all, the chart may have looked different at different times during the ages but it is what it is - the chart that MTV Europe has been broadcasting for more than two decades!

And a record is broken this week! "Rolling In The Deep" by Adele becomes the longest stayer in European Top 20, spending a 31st week in the chart! The previous joint record-holders with 30 weeks were "Poker Face" by Lady GaGa and "TiK ToK" by Ke$ha.

What "E.T." by Katy Perry and Kanye West is doing is also impressive! This week it scores a third week at number 1... but just how big the gaps between its three appearances at the top have been! After its first week at number 1, it took 9 more weeks to return to the top... and now it's back up there again, 10 weeks later!

This week the chart is quite nice - there are some big movements, the majority of the undeserving songs are on their way out... It's a pity that there is only one new entry but it's also remarkable - this is the first time Red Hot Chili Peppers have appeared in European Top 20 since 2007's "Hump De Bump"!

Very good!

and both were underserving entries, two flop songs

MTV European Top 20 №36/06.09.2011

18. ( 11 ) Britney Spears - I Wanna Go

19. ( 18 ) Adele - Rolling In The Deep

20. ( * ) Rihanna - Cheers (Drink To That)

First, let me express my unhappiness with the fact that MTV Europe have started broadcasting the chart even later than before - at 24:00 CET on Tuesdays... It seems like they don't want many people to be able to watch it!

However, this week's edition is great! Nice movements, the most undeserving songs are out...

"Moves Like Jagger" becomes Maroon 5's second number 1 in European Top 20 after "She Will Be Loved" topped the chart in late 2004. This is also Christina Aguilera's 6th number 1 after "Genie In A Bottle", "Nobody Wants To Be Lonely", "Lady Marmalade", "Ain't No Other Man" and "Hurt".

I'm really disappointed that "Loca People" by Sak Noel enters the chart while "Danza Kuduro" is nowhere to be seen...

Rihanna achieves something remarkable. It happens very rarely for an artist to have six singles from one album in MTV European Top 20... yet "Cheers" debuts this week, following "Only Girl In The World", "What's My Name?", "S & M", "California King Bed" and "Man Down"!

And Adele continues to improve the record for longest stayer ever as "Rolling In The Deep" spends a 32nd week in the chart!

Has 'Someone Like You' by Adele ever entered the MTV European Top 20?

 

Edit; Just looked back through the pages and it did. I reckon it could re-enter in the coming weeks.

Wow, Hitstastic, how did you guess that? And "Someone Like You" by Adele breaks a record - it re-enters European Top 20 for the FOURTH time, making it the first song ever to have FIVE SEPARATE CHART RUNS in the chart!

It actually replaces "Rolling In The Deep", which is finally out after 32 weeks in the chart - yet another record, this one - for longest stayer ever!

"Give Me Everything" scores a fourth week at the top... By the way, there is something remarkable going on in MTV European Top 20 - now there has been a new number 1 for 9 weeks in a row (note that I don't mean 9 different songs - just that each week the previous chart-topper has been dethroned)! Is this a record, too? Not at all - it's just halfway! In 1998 there was a new number 1 for 18 weeks in a row! Yes, those were crazy times as well!

:lol: 'Someone Like You' has been doing well in Portugal and has just stated doing really well in Belguim so it seemed like a song that was likely to re-enter at some point.

 

As for the chain of #1s in 1998, can you list those 18 weeks? I do remeber being frustrated at one point in 1998 when Aerosmith 'I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing' and Faithless 'God Is A DJ' kept swapping places at no. 1 for quite a few weeks. I used to think back then "why can't one of them just stay at #1 instead?" :D As you can tell, I like charts with consistancy. :P

Here are all the number ones in 1998:

 

Hanson - I Will Come To You 1

Spice Girls - Too Much 3

Natalie Imbruglia - Torn 5

Madonna - Frozen 7

Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On 4

Madonna - Ray Of Light 1

Savage Garden - Truly, Madly, Deeply 4

Pras Michel, ODB & Mya - Ghetto Supastar 4

Brandy & Monica - The Boy Is Mine 2

Spice Girls - Viva Forever 1

Des'ree - Life 1

Spice Girls - Viva Forever 1 (2)

Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing 1

Boyzone - No Matter What 1

Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing 1 (2)

Boyzone - No Matter What 1 (2)

Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing 1 (3)

Boyzone - No Matter What 1 (3)

Faithless - God Is A DJ 1

Boyzone - No Matter What 1 (4)

Lauryn Hill - Doo Wop 1

George Michael - Outside 1

Lauryn Hill - Doo Wop 1 (2)

George Michael - Outside 1 (2)

Cher - Believe 1

George Michael - Outside 1 (3)

Cher - Believe 2 (3)

 

From the first week at the top of "Viva Forever" to the second week at the top of "Believe" - 18 weeks in a row with a new number 1!

And while I agree that sometimes it's nice to have some songs spend (many) consecutive weeks at the top, I do love it when I never know which song is going to be number 1 next week! I adored it when last year Lady GaGa's "Telephone" and Stromae's "Alors On Danse" kept replacing each other at the top for weeks and weeks...

tsetsi, are you sure that "Cheers" is Rihanna's song that re-enters at number 11? Because according to MTV Europe's website it's "Only Girl In The World"...
