This week comes to show that the somewhat unexpected climb of Lana Del Rey's "Video Games" is no one-week wonder as the single remains stuck to the number one slot for a second time. Taio Cruz continues to be the runner-up with "Hangover", while Rihanna's "We Found Love" is still at #3.

The highest new entry belongs to Pink at #8. "Bridge Of Light" is taken from the soundtrack of (the awful) Happy Feet 2 and although only a few expected it to be a proper single, the song easily becomes Pink's 15th top 10 hit in Germany. In terms of solo female power, only Madonna, Rihanna and Britney Spears have had more top ten singles in the country.
The second edition of X Factor in Germany ended just two weeks ago and winner David Pfeffer finds his debut single "I'm Here" shooting itself straight at #10. If the song doesn't advance further, it will be another proof that for now X Factor is the lesser show compared to Deutschland sucht den Superstar. Last year's winner Edita Abdieski brought her "I've Come To Life" new at #9 before disappearing quickly from the top 100. Back to the 2011 show, runner-up Raffaela Wais' debut single "Heaven Only Knows" arrives at #41. At the same time, the bronze medallists, Nica and Joe, enter at #54 with "Build a Palace".
After invading the global charts slowly but steadily for the last months, the time has come for Germany to fell under the spell of Chistina Perry. Her "Jar of Hearts" can be found at #22 this week. At the same time, with the release of a "proper" video, Lady Gaga's "Marry The Night" goes up once again and now stands pretty at #24, up from #33.
A slow new entry at #43 from Katy Perry. "The One That Got Away" is the sixth single from her current album and is once again a great song, which is destined to go up the countdown. Katy is followed by Kelly Rowland, whose "Down For Whatever" enters at #44. As a lead solo artist, Kelly has had "Stole" (peak #15), "Work (peak #25) and "Commander" (peak #16) as more successful singles in Germany so far.
And the remaining new entries with videos and some info:
#49. R.J. & Pitbull - U Know It Ain't Love - A curious new entry, showing once again that Germans are really crazy about dance music at the moment.
#51. DJ Otzi - Ring The Bell - The one and only Tyrolean has never had a holiday single but now this "injustice" changes with his latest offering. (REVISED - It's actually his second Christmas-themed single after the 2001 X-Mas Time (peak #54))
#64. Redd ft. Snoop Dogg and Akon - I'm Day Dreaming - Look at #49 again.
#66. Michel Telo - Ai se eu te pego - It's a somewhat subdue new entry for a song that has captured the hearts of many soccer clubs around Europe, and especially in Spain.
#77. Scooter ft. Vicky Leandros - C'est Bleu - I've written enough for the fiasco of Scooter's latest singles but now we have to add the fact that even Viva doesn't play them any more. It's not that Viva plays anyone any more...
The Album Chart
The reign of Udo Lindenberg at the chart comes to a halt as Rammstein bring their best of album straight at the top. Apart from their debut album in 1995, the German group has had all its LP releases topping the countdown - no mean feat for the guys. It's a new entry for Amy Winehouse at #3 and her "Lioness: Hidden Treasures", while we have also new appearances also by Nightwish's "Imaginaerum" at #6 and by Boehse Onkelz' "Lieder wie Orkane" at #7.
