May 5, 201312 yr I'm actually embarassed for all involved in the new Génération Goldman single. After 'Envole-moi' was so big, the next lead single really should have smashed. It seems as if everything Amel touches flops these days.

May 12, 201312 yr SNEP is really the most laziest chart company. Another week where download sales are available but not the overall charts. I think either GfK or Nielsen should take over the charts. At least they are consistent, unlike SNEP. This might explain why certifications are only awarded once in France (typically around New Years). Even IFPI Europe certifies more than that (1m Europe Sales Platinum Award)! That being said, Emmanuel Moire did really well on albums chart. Danse Avec Les Stars must have helped him a lot, since his last album didn't do well and he got dropped by his former label. After DALS success, Mercury signed him on and now he posts his highest opening week sales to date! Good for him. Beau Malheur is a good song and glad to see it re-entering and to a new peak inside Top 20. Hugh Laurie also debuted good and it looks like there is life for him after House. Taylor Swift finally gets notice in France with I Knew You Were Trouble. This might be her best chart and sales performance in singles chart to date. 22 is definitely releasing in France but apparently NRJ hasn't got the clearance to play the song just yet (which I read last week). The label really shouldn't stall single releases as it will hurt the sales when the single does get released. Having said that, Swift will definitely sell past Gold sales (50k) and might just reach Platinum (100k) by the end of the year. Get Lucky is doing amazingly. Edited May 12, 201312 yr by buzz_person

People who complain about the OCC really don't know how lucky they are, it's a pity there's no chance of another company replacing SNEP.
