For a
third week in a row there is no change atop the German singles chart as
the places from one to three remain the same - Clean Bandit's "Rather
Be" at #1 (for a third week), Mr. Probz' "Waves" at #2 and Pharrell
Williams' "Happy" at #3.

A week after it debuted at #49, "Bad"
becomes the next single of David Guetta to enter the German top 20 as it
shoots itself to #19. The collaboration with Showtek becomes the 16th
top 20 single of Guetta as a lead artist.

At #20 "We Are
One (Ole Ola)", or the official 2014 Fifa World Cup song, of Pitbull,
Jennifer Lopez and Cludia Leitte soars from #72 where it entered the top
100 a week earlier. It is the seventh top 20 single of Pitbull in the
country.

"I Got U" of Duke Dumont moves up eight to #23 and improves on the #25 position where the song debuted a fortnight ago.

The
highest new entry belongs to Eko Fresh, together with Frauenarzt, Manny
Marc and Bass Sultan Hengzt, whose song "Joko Diss" comes in at #25.
Rapper Eko Fresh was last in the top 30 back in 2006 with "Gheddo".
His latest appearance in the chart is thanks to some sort of a quarrel
with Pro7 host Joko, but for which, as I even cannot find the song on
YouTube, I actually don't care at all.
The second highest new entry
is courtesy of Rea Garvey and "Can't Say No" at #32. Rea's previous
single "Wild Love" peaked at #18 in 2012.

Also on the rise we can
find "#Selfie" of The Chainsmokers at #38, up one, and "Down By The
River" of Milky Chance at #39, up five.

This week Jan Delay scores his third consecutive number one album with "Hammer
& Michel", which debuts directly at the summit. It is followed by
(who else?) Helene Fischer and "Farbenspiel" at #2 and Abba's "Gold",
which rises six to #3.
As Clean Bandit's spends a second week as Germany's most beloved single
with "Rather Be", there is not much going on at the upper reaches of the
German singles countdown. Thus former number ones "Waves" of Mr. Probz
and "Happy" of Pharrell Williams are still at #2 and #3, respectively.

German rapper KC Rebell has had only one charting single so far - "Kanax in Paris" from last year (peak #60) but now, with the help of Farid Bang, he is back on a better form with "Kanax in Moskau". The latter, being the highest new entry, charts at #32.

At #35 and #36 we have two of the latest offerings of rapper Kollegah "Alpha" and "Aks Im Wandschrank" re-entering the top 100, while the second new entry is the comeback single of Anastacia. "Stupid Little Things", which enters at #38, marks the release of Anastacia's "Resurrection" LP. Last the US singer, who had a relatively steady chart career in the country, was in the German top 100 with "I Can Feel You" from 2008.

The Album Chart
Due to the release of a new DVD, the Live LP of Die Toten Hosen called "Der Krach der Republik" manages to outsell Helene Fischer and to re-enter the album chart at #1. New at #3 is the debut album of last year's The Voice winner Andreas Kuemmert called "Here I Am". The latest from Die Aerzte singer Bela B, together with Smokestack Light, under the name "Bye", comes in at #5. "Ich Lasse Mir Das Singen Nicht verbieten" of German comedian Hape Kerkeling enters at #7, while Abba are back with "Gold-Greatest Hits" at #9. Also new, at #10, is "Bang!", the new album of Swiss hard-rock band Gotthard.
Following
a four-week stay at #1, Mr. Probz' "Waves" moves down one to #2 to
clear the way for Clean Bandit's former UK #1 "Rather Be" to top the
German singles chart, up from #3. The bronze medals this week have been
won by Pharrell Williams and "Happy", down from #2.

Just several
weeks ago Jan Delay's "Liebe" spent a brief week at #59 before
disappearing completely from the top 100 and before everyone writes the
German singer off, he is back with a new track directly at #6. "St.
Pauli", with its interesting video and performance at this year's Echos,
has caught the attention and thus becomes Jan's third top ten single
after his debut "Irgendwie, irgendwo, irgendwann" reached #2 in 1999 and
"Oh Johnny" also peaked at #6 in 2009.
Video
Jess Glynne, who provides
vocals to Clean Bandit's current number one, has the honour this week to
round up the top ten as "My Love" of Route 94, in which the singer also
appears, rises ten to #10.
Video
Up twelve to #11 and entering the top 20
for the first time is Vance Joy's excellent "Riptide", while "25" of Die
Fantastischen Vier becomes the band's tenth top 20 single as it soars
also twelve to #15.
Also on the rise are "Heart To Heart" of James Blunt, up two to #17, and Bakermat's "One Day (Vandaag)", also up two, to #20.

The
influx of UK dance #1s in Germany continues with the arrival of "I Got
You" of Duke Dumont at #25. "Need U (100 %)", the previous single of the
DJ, reached #45 in Germany.

After two weeks at #40, Milow's "We
Must Be Crazy" manages to advance six to #34, while after the mega
success of "Stolen Dance", Kassel duo (yes, I thought in the past the act consisted of
only one person) Milky Chance bring a second single inside the top 50 as
"Down By The River" rises ten to #44. Also on the ascent is "Selfie" by
The Chainsmokers, this week at #45, up from #50.

The Album Chart
Once
again the German album chart is full of new entries but Helene
Fischer's "Farbenspiel" is still number one. And yes, the album is
definitely going to top the year-end chart for two consecutive years...
Frei.Wild, who are usually found at the top, are this week at #2 with
"Live In Frankfurt", while their other new offering - "Auf stiller
Fahrt-Die Konzertreise" debuts at #5. In between, at #4, we have Roger
Cicero and his "Was immer auch kommt". Runrig's DVD "Party on the Moor"
enters at #6, Milow's "Silver Linings" is at #7 and Herzog's "Eine
Drogenlose Frechheit" is at #8.
The top three in Germany remains unchanged for a second week in a row
with Mr. Probz' "Waves", Pharrell Williams' "Happy" and Clean Bandit's
"Rather Be" standing at places one to three. This boosts the number of
number weeks for "Waves" to four.

At #13, up three, Sido's "Liebe"
is slowly advancing towards the top ten, while George Ezra's amazing
"Budapest" becomes the first top 20 single for the UK singer as it moves
up from #26 to #14.

Following a relatively slow start, "Heart To
Heart" of James Blunt finally manages to find its way inside the top 20
as it rises 14 positions to #19 to become the fifth top 20 single of the
singer.

Surprisingly, or not, after the success of Clean Bandit,
another dance number one track from the UK storms the German chart as
"My Love" of Route 94 soars from #53 to #20. It is the first hit of the
dance project and features the vocals of Jess Glynne, who has also
helped the Clean Bandit's song being so popular right now.
Video
At #22,
it is up one for Bakermat's "One Day (Vandaag)", while "25", the
anniversary single of Die Fantastischen Vier rises to #27 from #38 where
it debuted last week. It is the eleventh top 30 single of the rap band.
At #30, up from #34, Jason Derulo has his eighth top 30 single with
"Trumpets".

The highest new entry for the week can be found at #35
coming from Australian boy band 5 Seconds Of Summer and their first
single "She Looks So Perfect". At #36 there is a re-entry of "Clown" of
Emeli Sande, which flopped the first time around but now has the honour
to be Sande's third top 40 single in Germany.

"Can't Remember To
Forget You", the comeback single of Shakira, may have not been able to
move past the #8 peak but has remained in the top 20 for quite some time
to have an impact. The superstar now brings new song "Dare (La La La)" at
#45.

German legend Peter Maffay is back in the top 50 with "Gelobtes

The Album Chart
Though
there is a real influx of new entries in the top 100, "Farbenspiel",
which was crowned album of the year at last week's Echo awards (the
German Grammys), of Helene Fischer returns comfortably to the number one
slot. It is followed by Unheilig and their "Best Of", while rapper Samy
Deluxe is new at #3 with "Maennlich" - his fifth top three album. New
at #4 we have Johnny Cash's "Out Among the Stars", while Shakira's
"Shakira" moves in at #5, keeping her string of top six albums unharmed
since 2001. Also new in the top ten are Michelle's "Die Ultimative Best
Of" at #7 and Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa's "Live In Amsterdam" at #8.
