German Chart Comments - Issue Date 25.07

As expected, this week's chart reflects the sales during Germany winning the World Cup, which had an impact, albeit not so big, on the listing. As a whole, however, it is one of the slowest and dullest charts of the year so far, with the highest new entry coming in as low as #63.

So, as it has become an unofficial anthem for the World Cup, Andreas Bourani's "Auf uns" returns this week to #1, up from #2. Twelve weeks ago the song debuted at #1 but gave up the summit quite easily. Also rising on the back of the football tournament is "Au Revoir" of Mark Forster and Sido, which returns to #2 from #4.

The top three is completed by OneRepublic and "Love Runs Out", still at #3.

After five weeks at #1, Lilly Wood & The Prick and Robin Schulz this time have to fall to #4 with "Prayer in C", while Helene Fischer's "Atemlos durch die Nacht" climbs four to #5 in its 30th week in the top 10.
