I think this chart is stupid. Not playings songs in the top 10 is just dumb and makes no sense whatsoever

Ben, unfortunately, they don't reveal the positions they don't play at all! As you can see, this time they didn't reveal positions number 4, 5 and 6!

:wacko:

 

So what's the sense of a chart then if they don't reveal a lot of positions? MTV clearly lost it...

"All Of Me" by John Legend seems to be already on its way out after only reaching number 14. In my opinion, there is something wrong with the way this chart is made!

However, MTV Europe actually broadcasts this chart several times during the weekend... And this time they somehow broadcast two DIFFERENT versions of this edition of the "Euro Top Chart"! I'll post the other version in my next post...

Here is the other "version" of the chart of July 5, 2014 that MTV Europe broadcast (the differences are just between positions number 24 and number 12 so I'm only posting this part of the chart):

 

24 Ella Henderson - Ghost

23

22 Katy Perry - Dark Horse

21 Faul, Wad Ad & Pnau - Changes

20 George Ezra - Budapest

19 Klingande - Jubel

18 Aloe Blacc - The Man

17 Pitbull - We Are One

16 Ariana Grande & Iggy Azalea - Problem

15 Sam Smith - Stay With Me

14

13

12 Sigma - Nobody To Love

 

In addition to a few minor differences in chart positions, "Stolen Dance" by Milky Chance is missing from this version, too... I really hope MTV Europe won't broadcast different "versions" of one and the same edition of the chart in the future!...

Yet another absurd situation - during the broadcast of this edition of the chart, MTV Europe showed "Wiggle" by Jason Derulo as number 20... and, immediately after that, they showed "The Man" by Aloe Blacc AGAIN AS NUMBER 20!!! So, according to MTV Europe, this edition of the "Euro Top Chart" contained TWO different number 20's?!... That's completely illogical so I'm considering "The Man" as being number 19 in this edition.

I also think it's a pity that Ed Sheeran scores a number 1 with "Sing"... when "I See Fire" didn't appear at all in MTV Italy's "Euro Top 20" chart...

On the other hand, I'm extremely happy that MTV Europe finally played "Am I Wrong" by Nico and Vinz!

There were also several big climbers and fallers... As a whole, I enjoyed the chart of July 19!

...And this edition of the chart seems to me like a step back. Last week's biggest climbers are now making big falls; the top of the chart returns to its state from 2 weeks ago; "Happy" by Pharrell Williams reappears straight at number 9...

At least I'm really happy that MTV Europe didn't skip any positions this time - they played all the songs from number 21 to number 1! Let's hope this continues to be the case each week!

*** Between "Wiggle" by Jason Derulo at number 24 and "Budapest" by George Ezra at number 21, MTV Europe played "Chandelier" by Sia... but showed it as NUMBER 20!?... Since I have no way of knowing whether the song actually is at number 23 or number 22, I haven't listed it in this edition of the chart at all. It's a pity...

Where's "Prayer in C"? This chart is a joke.

Doesn't MTV make this chart available on the Internet, on their website?

Where's "Prayer in C"? This chart is a joke.

 

''Prayer In C'' is at #18, and this week [August 9th, 2014 ] climbed five places to the #13 :-)

Ben, sadly, MTV Europe's website hasn't been updated since November 2013!

"Prayer In C" is at number 13 this week but so far MTV Europe have been skipping it... I think they'll start playing it in several weeks' time.

And by climbing 6 places to number 2, "Am I Wrong" by Nico and Vinz presents itself as the biggest contender for the number 1 spot!

MTV Europe have actually started playing "Prayer In C" much earlier than I expected!

On the other hand, there has been something peculiar recently. From time to time it happens that in the beginning MTV Europe don't play certain songs but after several weeks they start playing them... However, in the case of "Problem" by Ariana Grande and Iggy Azalea, the opposite happened - MTV Europe played it the first few weeks... and then they started skipping it! Why? It's supposed to be at number 6 this week.

Last time I wrote that "Am I Wrong" was the biggest contender for the number 1 spot... but now it falls 6 places back to number 8! What I didn't write last time was that I actually considered "A Sky Full Of Stars" by Colplay as most likely to replace "Waves" by Mr. Probz at the top... and I was so close! But I really didn't think "Summer" by Calvin Harris would become the new number 1...

Maybe what they play has a lot to do with personal preference.

 

 

 

IMPORTANT:

Next weekend I won't be able to watch the "Euro Top Chart". Would someone who has access to MTV Europe be so kind to watch the chart and write it down? MTV Europe broadcasts it 3 times during the weekend: from 12:00 to 14:00 CET on Saturday; from 19:00 to 21:00 CET on Saturday; and from 14:00 to 16:00 CET on Sunday.

It's a pity that I wasn't able to watch the chart of August 23! Judging by MTV Italy's "Euro Top 20", there are a lot of huge movements! The previous chart-topper - "Summer" by Calvin Harris - falls 17 places to number 18!!! "A Sky Full Of Stars" by Coldplay, "Waves" by Mr. Probz and "Sing" by Ed Sheeran are also leaving the Top 10, making 10+ place falls... And then there are several big climbers. However, usually when the chart becomes so dynamic, the following edition is an almost complete reversal of the movements... We'll see whether that remains true next week.

Unsurprisingly, "Prayer In C" becomes the new number 1. But I really don't understand the vendetta that MTV Europe have against "Problem" by Ariana Grande and Iggy Azalea. How can they not play the number 3 in the chart?!...
