Posted July 9, 200817 yr Week 1-6 1990 Phil Collins - Another Day In Paradise http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41UikIByNVL._SL500_AA240_.jpg Chart Run: 90-32-7-4-1-1-1-1|-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-3-9-12-19-32-38-43-49-69-68-71-66-85-77-97-86 [31 wks] Phil Collins spent a total of 11 weeks at number 1 in Germany. He achieved this with only two songs in his long career (including the Genesis era). In The Air Tonight was number 1 in 1981 for 1 week, and Another Day In Paradise 10 weeks long in 1990. Another Day... climbed to number 1 before Christmas of 1989 and was 6 weeks long at the top of the summit in 1990. By far this was his most successful single in Germany. CiKHbU7Vhss
July 9, 200817 yr Author Week 7-9 1990 Werner Wichtig - Pump Ab Das Bier http://i20.ebayimg.com/07/i/000/e2/5c/7fc4_2.JPG Chart Run: 86-18-1-1-1-2-2-4-10-16-28-30-43-76-96 [15 wks] Mr Werner Wichtig covered Technotronic's first and biggest hit Pump Up The Jam. Question: What drink do Germans love the most? Beer! And ironically Werner held off the challenge of Technotronic's second single Get Up (Before The Night Is Over) to go to number 1! _z9McjlJiFs
July 9, 200817 yr Author Week 10-20 1990 Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U http://www.spiralfrog.com/sfimages/covers/pop/cov200/drc800/c829/c82960568gj.jpg Chart Run: 24-6-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-4-4-5-7-12-14-20-25-30-36-42-46-46-69-56-85-77-95-79 [32 wks] Sinead O'Connor's biggest hit ever. Nothing Compares 2 U was number 1 in several countries in 1990, also in Germany for 11 weeks! Interestingly Sinead had one more single, The Emperor's New Clothes in the same year. That song peaked at number 28. zkRUs-6szsk
July 9, 200817 yr Author Week 21-36 1990 Matthias Reim - Verdammt Ich Lieb' Dich http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41TSR82A2ZL._SL500_AA240_.jpg Chart Run: 82-30-10-7-5-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-3-5-7-10-13-14-19-20-26-34-36-48-50-67-64-80-80-80-57 [40 wks] Verdammt Ich Lieb' Dich (Dammit I love you) is the second longest running number 1 of the German charts history with 16 weeks. Only Boney M - Rivers Of Babylon was longer at the top (17 weeks). This was Matthias Reim's first single and what a way to start a singing career, the song kept from number 1 some big hits: Alannah Myles - Black Velvet, Guru Josh - Infinity (4 weeks long number 2), Adamski - Killer, Snap! - Oops up (9 weeks long number 2). Matthias Reim has had never again a number 1 hit. G02xoDwBrIU
July 9, 200817 yr Author Week 37-43 1990 DNA & Suzanne Vega - Tom's Diner http://static.rateyourmusic.com/album_images/s157362.jpg Chart Run: 22-13-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-3-5-5-7-11-12-15-27-27-31-36-57-69-68-94-88 [27 wks] Suzanne Vega's only single that charted in the German singles chart. DNA covered Vega's a cappella song in 1990 and was one of that year's biggest hits. It was 7 weeks long at number 1 and ironically hindered Matthias Reim's next single to become his second number 1. 3H8Hv2D_wAM
July 9, 200817 yr Author Week 44-45 1990 Londonbeat - I've Been Thinking About You http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41BXD04SCQL._SL500_AA240_.jpg Chart Run: 43-38-4-3-2-1-1-2-2-2-3-3-3-6-7-7-8-13-15-18-30-43-47-54-54-57-66-63-83-79-76-55-73-71-74-65-75-71-73-63-78-71-74-77-81-80 [46 wks] With two top 10 singles (one number 1 single) Londonbeat were rather a band of the 90s although they tried to come back in 2003 but with less success. Where Are U peaked at number 54. I've Been Thinking About You is 'til now their biggest and most known song. It was 2 weeks long at number 1 in Germany. XpYuuQaPO7E
July 9, 200817 yr Author Week 46-52 1990 Enigma - Sadeness http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41XG30BQEQL._SL500_AA240_.jpg Chart Run: 92-8-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-3-6-11-12-18-24-31-43-66-82-84-99 [27 wks] After debuting at number 92 Sadeness from Enigma jumped to number 8 the following week. But this was not the biggest jump ion the history of the German chart infact it was only the 10th biggest jump.*NSYNC (Here We Go) and Pharao (There Is A Star) hold the title for highest movers both jumped 90 places up. Sadeness is Enigma's only number 1 hit surprisingly, Return To Innocence peaked only at number 5 in Germany. CEh2N5hmPVM

July 10, 200817 yr Good idea Ben Perhaps if you also post the year-end chart will be great and people will see where each of the number ones have charted ;) As regards Matthias Reim and Verdammt, Ich Lieb' Dich, it may be quite cheesy but Verdammt, I like it a lot :lol:
July 10, 200817 yr just a minor correction, its spelled Sadness ;) what are the Nsync and Pharao runs?
July 10, 200817 yr Author just a minor correction, its spelled Sadness ;) what are the Nsync and Pharao runs? Well, I thought it's Sadness too, but if you look at the cover, it says Sadeness. I checked also on Amazon and other sites, and I could find only with an "e" so you might be wrong. :o *NSYNC - Here We Go Chart Run: 99-9-11-8-11-13-16-21-28-33-52-57 [12 wks] Pharao - There Is A Star Chart Run: 30-98-8-10-9-9-13-10-13-13-20-27-33-44-48-77-100 [17 wks] I can remember on the big jump of *NSYNC but Pharao's run is really strange!

I will post the other years too. I thought about the yearend charts, maybe separately but I have to find them first. Has someone an idea where to find them?
July 10, 200817 yr Author I've found the yearend top 5 of 1990: 1. Matthias Reim - Verdammt Ich Lieb Dich 2. Sinead O'Connor - Nothing compared 2 U 3. DNA & Suzanne Vega- Tom's Diner 4. Snap - The Power 5. UB40 - Kingston Town
July 10, 200817 yr ok that Werner track is awful! Cant believe it blocked Technotronic off the top! Bad germans! And that Pharao chartrun seems to take the 2nd week "fall" and 3rd week "climb" rule in Germany to the extreme
July 10, 200817 yr I've found the yearend top 5 of 1990: 1. Matthias Reim - Verdammt Ich Lieb Dich 2. Sinead O'Connor - Nothing compared 2 U 3. DNA & Suzanne Vega- Tom's Diner 4. Snap - The Power 5.
