Yan's Late German Chart Comments - Issue Date Sept 19

 

The return of the kissing-girl lady

 

After giving up the top spot last week, this week mighty Katy Perry continues her worlwide chart domination by returning as a queen of the German singles charts for a third time. This of course means that Rosenstolz has to fall to the runner-up slot after only a week at the number one position. Last time I forgot to mention that the sales of "Gib mir Sonne" were also boosted by the song's inclusion in the soundtrack of a new hit TV series with once pop star Jeanette Biedermann. Actually Rosenstolz is the second German act in the last few months who managed to score its first-ever chart topping hit and to be removed by Katy Perry after only a week at the peak. The other one is of course Soehne Mannheims. A place below Rosenstolz we find Gabriela Cilmi and her smash "Sweet About Me" refusing to go away and continuing the women domination in the top 4 is Amy MacDonald and her great "This Is The Life" making quite deserving new peak. To round up the top 10 we should pay attention to Guru Josh's 2008 take on his 1990 hit "Infinity", whose sales are this week triggered by the final physical release of the song. That is enough to place it in the top 10 after a long but steady climb.

The week's highest new entry belongs to Peter Heppner at #16. Heppner is no stranger to the German charts with several German classics on his account. However, all of them are in collaboration either via his group Wolfsheim or with acts like Schiller and Joachim Witt. His biggest hit is "Die Flut", a duet with the aforementioned Witt, which reached number 2 in 1998 becoming one of the best sellers that year. Heppner also has several top 20 hits as a vocal for Schiller and Paul Van Dyk. As long as Wolfsheim is concerned, the group most successful single is "Kein Zurueck" peaking at #4 in 2003. "Alleinesein" marks the launch of Heppner's first ever solo album, for which I'm waiting eagerly to be released.

Four places below Heppner comes in the fourth single of Ich + Ich's latest album "Vom selben Stern". The LP is already responsible for the smashes "Vom selben Stern", "Stark" and "So soll es bleiben", which all stayed in the top ten for ages. "Nichts bringt mich runter" fails to break the top 10 but having in mind the success of the already too old album and of the three previous singles, the top 20 entry is no mean feat either.

The next new entry worth mentioning comes in at #26, where German rock band Oomph! makes its first appearance in the chart after the spring flop "Wach auf". The biggest hit of the boys is "Augen Auf" which reached the number one spot in 2004. "Labyrinth" is the second single from the tenth studio album of Oomph! and at least does better than the already mentioned "Wach Auf".
