I can't believe that Tokio Hotel have choosen "Ready Set Go" as their first UK single, it's not their best track. "Monsoon" or "Scream" would have been better debuts.

01. Take That: I'd Wait For Life 02. Chipz: Chipz In Black 03. Nelly Furtado: In God's Hands 04. Andrea Corr: Shame On You 05. Sophie Ellis Bextor: Me And My Imagination 06. Melanie C: Carolyna 07. Kelly Clarkson: Never Again 08. Sophie Ellis Bextor: Today The Sun's On Us 09. Natasha Bedingfield: Soulmate 10. Gareth Gates: Angel On My Shoulder

I think there could be a different third single for Central Europe, at least for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. "Reach Out" has been sent to radio stations over here in Germany this week and is intruduced as Take That's third single. I haven't found more information about that yet, but I've heard "Reach Out" on the radio several times. Maybe the record company thinks that "I'd Wait For Life" is not a good single for countrys where English is not the mother tongue.

Oh no, Roger Moore returns to this week's chart. I don't like his cover of "Sweet Dreams". Three Knut songs have charted already. Is Knut also known in the UK? He's so cute, but sadly not his songs. Nelly Furtado won't make it to the top, because Shakira & Beyoncé are going to debut at number 1 next week. This week's physical top ten: 01 02 Nelly Furtado 02 03 DJ Ötzi & Nik P 03 06 Mika 04 04 Ville Valo & Natalia Avelon 05 05 Avril Lavigne 06 01 Tokio Hotel 07 07 Timbaland 08 08 Justin Timberlake 09 09 Gwen Stefani 10 11 Basshunter 11 NE Chipz 21 NE Oliver Pocher, Nena & Stefan Remmler 29 NE Michael Bublé Like in the UK Chipz are high on physical sales, but flop in the combined chart.

I only bought one single of the No Angels: "Feel Good Lies". That was a really great song! I liked most of their singles, it was nice to hear them on the radio. That single with Mousse T was also a good club track, but sadly not their biggest hit. I don't like "Goodbye To Yesterday" very much. So if this song has to be the best track on the album, the other songs have to be very weak.

01. Take That: I'd Wait For Life 02. Chipz: Chipz In Black 03. Natasha Bedingfield: Babies 04. Nelly Furtado: In God's Hands 05. Timbaland: Give It To Me 06. Andrea Corr: 24 Hours 07. Sophie Ellis Bextor: Me And My Imagination 08. Gareth Gates: Changes 09. Hanson: Go 10. Javine: Drop The Bomb

I liked her album. My favourite single is "That's The Way My Heart Goes", my favourite album cut is "Wasted Love", this should have been a single. Has "Oxygen" ever been released in Sweden or anywhere else? Hope Marie's new album sounds a bit like Girls Aloud or Sophie Ellis Bextor.

Next week will be Sarah Connor's big week. Single and album are going to be top ten.

01. Take That: I'd Wait For Life 02. Natasha Bedingfield: Babies 03. Chipz: Chipz In Black 04. Nelly Furtado: In God's Hands 05. Timbaland: Give It To Me 06. Andrea Corr: Shame On You 07. Sophie Ellis Bextor: Me And My Imagination 08. Gareth Gates: Changes 09. Javine: Drop The Bomb 10. Hanson: Go

I've always been a fan of this Pre Release Chart, so I'm glad that it's making a comeback. 01. Natasha Bedingfield: Babies 02. Chipz: Chipz In Black 03. Melanie C: I Want Candy 04.

Thanks for these Eurovision infos, Fresh! So Ralph Siegel and Stefan Raab each produced three Eurovision songs that reached Germany's top ten. Nicole is still the best, followed by Dschinghis Khan. I like Roger Cicero, but in my opinion he's not the right choice for Eurovision this year. Monrose are still successful in this week's chart. Didn't suspect "Even Heaven Cries" to be such a smash!

As far as I know there's no real clip for that Höhner single, only a weird live video. Nobody thought their handball song would be such a smash. It really sounds like the other Höhner songs. I guess you have to like carnival to enjoy their tracks. That awful Bundesvision Song Contest changed this week's chart very much. I don't like this show, but I'm happy that Oomph! won instead of Jan Delay or Kim Frank.

It's a handball song on top. Germany won the World Cup a few weeks ago and now the handball anthem is at number one.

Unbelievabe that a German song charts at no. 08 in France! Tokio Hotel's album "Schrei" has already sold 50k in France and it's successful in Russia, too. I can't wait until Tokio Hotel's first English album is released on Interscope in May for the US and the UK market. I never believed that Sarah Connor and US5 could be successful in the States and so it sadly happened, but I really think that Tokio Hotel could be big around the globe in 2007.

Break Me, Shake Me. I didn't know that "Tears of Pearls" was a single. I liked it very much on the album, but I've never heard it on the radio.

I think she has an amazing voice. I like her singing more than her songs. The only single I've got from her is "Skin On Skin". Her current single "The Best Side of LIfe" is nice. I hope she returns with a brand new album this year.

The original version of Cascada's "Everytime We Touch" reached around no. 80 in august 2005. This re-relase is the new version of "Everytime We Touch" for 2007, but the German single also includes the original version that has been successful in the States and in the UK.

Nelly Furtado also got the no. 01 album this week. Monrose fell to no. 02, Yusuf Islam is still successful at no. 03.

It's never a good decision to start your career with a cover, like Joana Zimmer did. She has a great voice and covered a good song, so this had to be a hit. But since then her following singles (original songs) flopped, because they are indeed boring. She might get the chance for a third album, but after that she will be dropped.

I don't think it's funny. The show is about lesbian relationsships, sexual discrimination, coming out, alcolism, provocative art and a stalker who kills her lover's cat. In every episode there are a couple of hot lesbian sex scenes. The L Word is the female answer to Queer As Folk. Jennifer Beals is great, Pam Grier is also doing an amazing job.

I've only seen season one. It's alright, but Queer As Folk was better. I prefer the L Word's cast over, but Folk's storylines were better.

Well, their solo careers didn't flop badly, but no Angel had a huge hit. Except Vanessa, who is acting now and won't return to No Angels, every member has released an album, Sandy even two. Compared to other German popstars bands and to international Popstars like Hear'Say No Angel's solo careers were alright, because every member released solo material and remained in showbiz.

I had expected that Monrose would remain longer on top than just two weeks. Now that No Angels have announced their comeback for March, I guess that Monrose will be gone within a year.

I enjoy your homepage, Fresh, but is there any chance that you will add the complete longplay charts of these countrys?
