June 15, 200916 yr Poker Face chart run is impressive!! If U Seek Amy at 36 is really disappointing :( . It's her worst peak in the chart. I think it shouldn't have been released so late, but that already happened with Circus, so I'm not really surprised.
June 15, 200916 yr Yan's German chart comments - Issue date 12.06 Proving he has a superstar potential, at least for now, Daniel Schuhmacher manages to score a third week at the top of the German singles charts with "Anything But Love". Of course Lady Gaga stays firm at the #2 position, while thanks to the #3-#9 drop of A-ha's rather wonderful "Foot of the Mountain" Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow" makes a new peak at #3 and Alexander Rybak even advances a notch to #7, showing that Germans really like him. His album "Fairytales" enters the album chart this week at #16. The biggest new entry of the week comes in at #8. The duet of Cassandra Steen (the new, softer Sabrina Setlur, if you ask me) and Adel Tawil (of Ich+Ich fame) is the follow-up of Steen's debut solo single "Darum leben wir", which was a major hit in the last winter, peaking at #6. For those who don't remember Cassandra was the lead singer of German trio Glashaus, which had one or two big hits in the early 2000s. "Stadt" (or "city" in English) is a fine example of the strength of the German music currently and I really like it... After shamefully omitting Emiliana Torrini's new entry last week at #12, I should now say some words on the Icelandic singer. So far, at least for me, she has been famous for singing the "Gollum's Song" from the soundtrack of LOTR:The Two Towers, one of the best OSTs ever! Despite that "Jungle Drum" was released way back in March in Germany, it failed then to enter the charts. Now, backed by the power of TV, the song sales were fuelled by the fact that it was played at the final of Germany's Next Topmodel and Torrini manages to be a real chart star in the country for the first time ever. And looking down the chart, and having in mind Cassandra Steen's entry at #8, it can be really said that this week is really the week of the women as long as the new entries are concerned. We have Ashley Tisdale, Britney Spears, Jeanette and Miley Cyrus all entering the countdown. So the most successful of the aforementioned is Ashley Tisdale, whose "It’s Alright, It’s OK" becomes her biggest hit to date in Germany, beating both Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus attempts for chart power. So apart from Zac Efron, whose filming career is booming, it seems that Sharpay is the other winner of the High School Musical project. Unfortunately good things cannot be said for the performance of Britney Spears latest offering "If You Seek Amy". Despite a good song, it sets a new record for her, being the single with the lowest peak position in her career. Perhaps the fact that the song is played on the TV for ages and everyone who cares has downloaded it or has a copy of the album is to be blamed? I don't know... Similarly German pop star Jeanette's newest single was also overplayed on the music channels but despite the support it comes in at the rather low #43. It thus becomes her second least successful single and only the fourth to miss out the top 20. Nevertheless, as Britney, she has had a great chart career so far. On behalf of the male half of the population, the most successful new entry of the week comes from super DJ Paul Van Dyk and his 2009 take on one of his most popular songs "For An Angel". As now the German charts are not the best place for electronic music, the entry of the song at #24 is quite an achievement. The original peaked at #44 back in 1998. Paul Van Dyk has his share of top 20 hits several years ago with "We Are Alive", "Nothing But You", "Time Of Our Lives" and "Wir sind wir". And finally, one curious fact is the new entry of the comeback single of Placebo at #34, as that position is the highest the guys have ever reached in the Germany with "The Bitter End". As I don't think that “For What It's Worth” will advance further, it seems that the #34 is Placebo's lucky number ;) Edited June 15, 200916 yr by YanBG
