German chart comments - Issue date - 26.11.2010

While IZ marks a second month atop the German singles chart, it's up to Bruno Mars and his first solo single to challenge the crown. "Just The Way You Are", which already hits number one in UK and USA, was always destined to be a huge hit in Germany and by entering at #2 cements the song status as one of the global hits of 2010. It improves by far the performance of Mars' other appearances in the chart as a guest singer for B.o.B. ("Nothin’ on You" reached #22) and Travie McCoy ("Billionaire" peaked at #16).

The next new entry of the week comes in at #9. Edita Abdieski is the first winner of the German X Factor edition and as I've heard the show impact in Germany has nothing to do with the success of Deutschland sucht den Superstar. Nevertheless, "I've Come To Life" succeeds to penetrate the top ten with almost zero promotion (it had no video at the time the chart was calculated) and manages to turn the music fans attention to the singer (at least mine). Time will tell, whether the current rotation on VIVA will have any impact on the sales.

The #17 sees the return of US rap star Nelly to the chart after a two-year absence. Not only that but Nelly hasn't been in the top 20 since "Nasty Girl" in 2005. His biggest hit in Germany is of course the number one smash "Dilemma" but perhaps it is more interesting that the man has four songs which peaked at #8 in the country.

Further down the countdown, rock band (is this rock really?) Linking Park bring another song to the top 30, with "Waiting For The End". Despite not among the guys' best chart placements, it at least is not a complete flop as in other parts of the world.

It is a shame that one of the best German bands from the last few years, Polarkreis 18, fails to enter the top 30 with its newest single, the beautiful "Unendliche Sinfonie". The song comes new at #35 and is a far cry from the number one success of "Allein Allein". The new song marks the release of the boys' fourth studio album.
