What been there best selling singles this year?

 

I don't know the actually sales figures but the 2 best sellers so far are:

Eros Ramazotti & Anastacia - I Belong To You

Bob Sinclar - Love Generation

 

Texas Lightning must come close as well right? Top 5?
Interesting that a very lyrics-driven song such at Unfaithful can have such popularity in a non English speaking country.

I don't think the language barrier should count in music.

Many European acts record in English (especially German, Holland and Belgium acts).

I think the British are really predudiced when it comes to buying (or even releasing) foreign language music.

 

Here's 4 examples even though they are mainly in English (or part English).

 

Eros Ramazotti & Anastacia - I Belong To You

Eros Ramazotti & Tina Turner - Cose Della Vita

Nena & Kim Wilde - Anyplace Anywhere Anytime

 

All the above I suspect because they were duets with mainland European acts.

 

Another example

Shakira - La Tortura. The biggest selling Non-English language singles of last year worldwide, yet no UK release.

 

It's time the record companies & radio stations woke up and stopped this predudice.

 

TIME FOR A POLL I THINK!

 

What has happened to Jeanette, who has charted at no. 50 this week?!? A few years ago every single has been a hit and her videos have been amazing, and now her person and her music have become boring. Her tv series (German version of "I Dream Of Jeanie") is on hiatus. Her only success is that she is this year's FHM Germany sexiest woman of the world.

I fully agree.

I bought her first 2 albums on import. I first saw her on German TOTP with my old satelite box.

I also agree she's damn SEXEEEEEEEE!
