German Chart Comments - Issue Date 29.08

Blame it to the impact of streaming or to late summer laziness, but for yet another week the top ten in Germany's singles chart remains almost unchanged with all positions from one to nine being the same as last week. Thus, David Guetta ft. Sam Martin marks a third week as #1 with Avicii-produced "Lovers On The Sun". Marlon Roudette's "When The Beat Drops Out" is at #2, while "Prayer in C" of Lilly Wood & The Prick and Robin Schulz is at #3.

The comeback single of Taylor Swift may have hit headlines around the globe but proving (for now at least) that she has never been such a huge star in Germany, "Shake It Off" debuts at #48. The singer has only five singles charting in the German charts.
