That must be the most "MTV European Top 20" looking chart I've seen in quite some time. By that I mean, it looks like how I'd imagine the chart to have looked like in the old days.

I agree. Except for the re-entry of Rolling In The Deep :rolleyes: Its a shame only a top10 is now played, what's the point? Might as well reduce the chart to a top10...

 

Thanks Jamse! Ah the good old days of MTV with interesting shows.

Amazing! It's really like in the old days! Unlike almost all of the recent editions of European Top 20, there are no new entries in the Top 10... In the past it was a special achievement to debut in the Top 10!

Also, there are many entries between positions number 11 and number 20 - another thing that has been lacking nowadays...

And what can I say when I see Aura Dione, DJ Antoine and The Beatshakers (the first Serbian artist in MTV European Top 20?)?... It seems like the chart is becoming more EUROPEAN! It's just a pity that Aura Dione's "Geronimo" never charted...

Oh, and by re-entering this week, "Rolling In The Deep" by Adele improves its record as the longest stayer ever - now its total becomes 34 weeks in the chart!

The Beatshakers? I dont see them in the top20

They are at number 19 together with DJ Antoine. As far as I could understand, they are credited on the single because "Ma Chérie" is originally theirs.

Oh, I really didn't know that haha :) I know the original version of Ma Cherie from 2 years ago, that was better imo

 

It's so easy for MTV to be great channel again, they're just lazy. Euro Top20 and Dancefloor Chart needed to be a top20 with more european dominance. Worldchart express needed variety. And bringing back shows like Select, The Fridge, Video Clash, Partyzone, Nordic Top5, Data Videos, etc...

That edition from 2003 was a special one - there were 4 new entries! The last time there had been so many new entries was in the edition of May 6, 2000. I had started watching European Top 20 by then but I still wasn't writing down all the positions (nor had I started watching the whole Top 20) so I didn't realize there were actually 4 new entries back then... So I had to wait for almost 3 years to finally see 4 new entries in the chart... I was so happy!

...What more can I say? "Someone Like You" by Adele re-enters the chart for the 6th time, making this its 7th separate run in MTV European Top 20... I don't think this achievement will ever be beaten!

I find it interesting that years after DJ Bobo Swiss DJ's are once again having success in European Top 20 - DJ Antoine has already scored two hits with "Welcome To St. Tropez" and "Ma Chérie"... and now Mike Candys also makes a debut!

Let me first express my displeasure with the fact that the time when European Top is broadcast has been changed and now it's at 1:00 AM! I know that it's also broadcast at 12:00 PM before that but I'm not able to watch it at that time... And, even worse - this week they didn't actually broadcast the chart at 1:00 AM!...

On the other hand, this week's edition is certainly remarkable - a total of 10 entries! 7 new entries and 3 re-entries! And yet I think the chart looks like a continuation of last week's chart, which is great. Also, I don't think it's a copy of any other European chart!

When "Drops Of Jupiter" reached number 4 in 2001, I would never have guessed Train would be in the chart 11 years later!

And "She Doesn't Mind" becomes Sean Paul's 4th number 2 in MTV European Top 20 after "Breathe", "We Be Burnin'" and "Got 2 Luv U". Will he finally score a number 1 with this single?

I'm a week late to ask this but with regards to the following...

 

13 NE Nicki Minaj - Starships

 

...how did MTV get around playing this when the video hasn't been released? (still :lol: ) Maybe they just skipped that position like they do on the UK video channels.

 

Also;

 

16 NE Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe

 

I think it's safe to say this will definitely return to the top 20 at some point. Surprised it's dropped out already.

They dont play positions below the top10 apparently...

Rihanna is the best

So of last week's 10 entries only one survived - "Drive By" by Train... the other 9 are out! And this week there are 10 entries as well - 8 re-entries and 2 new entries! I'm especially happy about one of them - "We Are Young" by Fun. I really hope it will be a future number 1!
