My Charts - week 21 - Padam, Karma vibes like that

[Tansike]

Always good to see that "Break Free" is able to climb back into the Top 10.

YAY for "INK"'s jump into the Top 20.

+ Good hold for "Sound Of A Woman".

Glad you love it that much as well. Definitely her best song so far...
And good you like "Ink"'s climb. It got me somehow... i'm far from being a great fan of their album but "Ink" is good.

Yasss!! Another Carrie Stan

Love her

YES at Blank Space entering! This better rise nice week

Not sure to be honest It's one of the weaker songs of "1989".....

[Falsetto]

Carrie is back - that is awesome! I like Jessie J in Top 2. Great to see "Blank Space" debuted.

[Nackar]

Awww, Good Girl was my favourite single from Blown Away. Still, good to see recognition for her!

thanks so much for all comments

week 51/2014 – 18 december 2014 Nicki Minaj is back

• Singles Top40

Jessie J is doing something that only happens very rarely: She pulls herself away from the top spot. After “Burnin’ Up” climbed up to the top position last week, the single already falls 1-3 this time. Meanwhile, it’s her current release “Masterpiece” which is up 2-1, becoming her second chart topper. The video release helped a little bit this time, plus there’s currently not a big competition on the Singles Top40. Rounding up the Top3 is once again Within Temptation who are up 3-2 with their ballad “Edge Of The World”.

Swedish newcomer AronChupa was the biggest climber last week and keeps on climbing this week as his debut hit “I’m An Albatraoz” is up 8-4. Ariana Grande’s “Love Me Harder” slips 4-5 but it’s still very stable, being in the Top5 for six weeks now. Finnish rock pop band Sunrise Avenue seem to have another hit on their hand as “Nothing Is Over” reaches a new peak again, rising 9-6. The never-dying “Break Free” by Ariana remains at #7, followed by Calvin Harris’ and Ellie Goulding’s “Outside” (5-8). While Indila’s “Love Story” remains at #10, there’s only one new song inside the Top10 compared to last week and it’s not a new new song as that one was inside the Top10 two weeks ago. It’s Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me”, which is up 13-9 this time. So christmas freeze reached the charts...

Selena Gomez’ “The Heart Wants What It Wants” falls out of the Top10 after five weeks (6-11). It’s followed by “Blown Away”, Carrie Underwood’s hit from 2012 which makes a surprising jump (21-12). Her actual single “Something In The Water” is just behind (16-13). The highest new entry of this week makes its debut even lower than the one last week – at #18. It’s “Bed Of Lies”, one of the single releases from Nicki Minaj’s new album “The Pinkprint” and features US-singer Skylar Grey. Nicki also gets another new entry as “Only” featuring Drake, Lil Wayne and Chris Brown starts at #38.

It wasn’t a good week for new entries as apart from the two entries by Nicki there are only two more with “Night Changes” by One Direction (#37) and the new christmas single “Wrapped In Red” by Kelly Clarkson (#34). But, interestingly, there are also four re-entries. Ariana’s christmas hit “Love Is Everything” was the most successful christmas release of last year and went Gold, now it’s back at #23. It’s followed by “Steal My Girl”, the lead single of One Direction’s current album (#24). Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” (#28) and her collaboration with Jessie J and Ariana Grande called “Bang Bang” (#32) are also back.

Carrie Underwood’s “Blown Away” is the biggest climber while Nick Jonas’ “Jealous” falls 27-40 as the biggest loser this week.

• Album Top20

Nicki Minaj’s third album “The Pinkprint” got finally released and debuts on top of the charts, becoming her second chart topper after “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded” did so in 2012 for three non-consecutive weeks. “The Pinkprint” got delayed several times and spawned the two Top3 hits “Pills N Potions” and “Anaconda”.

Carrie Underwood’s “Greatest Hits: Decade #1” becomes her highest entry on the album charts ever by climing one spot (3-2). Jessie J’s “Sweet Talker” falls 1-3 in its tenth week in the Top10.

After four weeks, Within Temptation’s “Let Us Burn” has to leave the Top3 for the first time (2-4). A second new entry makes its way to the charts and it’s the fourth album by One Direction, simply called “FOUR”. It’s their second appearance on the Album Top20 and the first one just made its debut at the beginning of this year. It was their third release “Midnight Memories”, which peaked at #7 in its second week, so “FOUR” already surpassed it with its #5-debut. Fellow UK artist Olly Murs slips 5-6 with “Never Been Better”, followed by Ariana Grande’s “My Everything”. Selena Gomez’ best of “For You” falls 4-8 in its fourth week. Even if it’s just a best of compilation, this performance is rather disappointing so far as all her four studio albums topped the charts for at least four weeks. While Anette Olzon’s “Shine” remains at #9, Sunrise Avenue are back in the Top10 with “Fairytales” (11-10). The record is getting certified with Gold this week, their first release ever (including singles) to do so.

Within Temptation’s “Hydra” is already out of the Top10 (8-11), but it’s getting certified with 3x Platinum this week, which is an impressive certification. David Guetta’s “Listen” (7-12) and Nicole Scherzinger’s “Big Fat Lie” (10-13) leave the Top10 as well, but for their first time.

In only six days it’s already christmas again, and due to that two christmas albums are back on the charts. Ariana Grande’s “Christmas Kisses” EP is back at #15 while Malena Ernman’s “I decembertid” is back at #18. While the latter is more a winter album overall than just a christmas album and because of that it showed some longevity last year, Ariana’s release only charted for four weeks but it topped the charts for one week during the last christmas period.

• Airplay Top10

Nicki Minaj also makes a big impact on the Airplay Top10 with three new entries from her new album “The Pinkprint” making their debuts. The ballad “Grand Piano”, which is also the closer of the standard edition of the album, makes the biggest impact of the week as it enters the charts on top with 35 plays. An even bigger surprise is behind her as Carrie Underwood’s “Blown Away” increases 10-2. Jessie J’s current top hit “Masterpiece” closes the Top3 (3-3).

AronChupa makes his debut on the Airplay Top10 this week as “I’m An Albatraoz” debuts at #4, exactly the same position it sits on the Singles Top40. Within Temptation’s “Candles” is up 9-5 again, and “Edge Of The World” joins it as another entry of the band, back at #10.

Apart from “Grand Piano”, the current leader of the Album Top20 has two more entries with “Get On Your Knees” debuting at #6 and the single “Bed Of Lies” starts at #8. The last two songs on the charts are “Burnin Up” (1-7) and “Sweet Talker” (2-9) by Jessie J.

Two songs by Carrie Underwood just missed the charts: “Something In The Water” got 15 plays, “Little Toy Guns” got 13 plays. Also worth a mention is Sunrise Avenue’s “Nothing Is Over” with 9 plays, enough for the #13 most played song this week.

Plays of the Top10 went down by 21 to 234 (-8.2%) compared to last week.

[JSparksFan]

Yay at my favourite Carrie song soaring this week. Also great to see a handful of Nicki's tracks debut, my favourite of which is "Bed of Lies", though I'm pleased to see "Only" too as that one's a bit underrated. "Wrapped in Red" is a pleasant surprise. It's one of my favourite Christmas songs actually.

[Nackar]

Masterpiece is a great song, so good to see it at the top. Santa Tell Me is a great Christmas track too.

[Alicepotter]

Great to see ME with Platinum now!

not too excited for this Nicki album, but i'm gonna give a spin one day

[vinnie65]

Many great songs in your chart! Nice to see Within Temptation and Sunrise Avenue in the top10!

[Froot]

So much Nicki in your charts! I started listening to her new album and so far the best songs for me are "Pills N Potions" & "Bed Of Lies" which I already knew before. Her duett with Ariana is also very good.

[Tansike]

Awesome debut for The Pink Print. Lovely Album.

Glad you like it

"Wrapped in Red" is a pleasant surprise. It's one of my favourite Christmas songs actually.

...

"Blown Away" is your favorite Carrie song? It's sooo good, deserved to be a worldwide smash hit to be honest
"Only" is definitely underrated, will make a climb this week... and i'm happy you like her entries, same for Kelly's new christmas song and all other songs you quoted

Masterpiece is a great song, so good to see it at the top. Santa Tell Me is a great Christmas track too.

Really good to know you think "Masterpiece" is a great song. Deserves to be a success for her!
And "Santa Tell Me" is really good, could be a christmas 'classic' for me

Great to see ME with Platinum now!

not too excited for this Nicki album, but i'm gonna give a spin one day

Deservedly
Oh not? It's really good, more urban-ish than her last one but much better than expected

Many great songs in your chart! Nice to see Within Temptation and Sunrise Avenue in the top10!

Thanks, glad to know you like their songs

So much Nicki in your charts! I started listening to her new album and so far the best songs for me are "Pills N Potions" & "Bed Of Lies" which I already knew before. Her duett with Ariana is also very good.

Yes, love your picks as these are some of my favorites as well.

thanks so much for all comments

week 52/2014 – 25 december 2014 Merry Christmas everyone! <3

• Singles Top40

First of all, I wish you all a Merry Christmas!

It’s christmas time and so it’s not a big surprise to see some christmas songs back on the charts. The impact isn’t as big as it was last year, but one artist benefits a lot from the season: Ariana Grande. The singer released a christmas EP last year and scored several hits with it, and most of these entries are back in the Top20 this time. The highest one is once again “Love Is Everything” which rises 23-2. It peaked at #2 for two weeks during the last season. Her new single “Santa Tell Me” reaches a new peak this time (9-5), while the EP tracks “Santa Baby” (#12) and “Snow In California” (#18) are back. Only the cover of the legendary “Last Christmas” misses to make an appearance. It peaked at #6 last year.

But back to the Top10. Within Temptation is back on top with their ballad “Edge Of The World”, climbing 2-1. It’s their fourth week on the charts and all of them were inside the Top3. Jessie J’s “Masterpiece” leaves the top spot after one week by falling 1-3. Swedish DJ AronChupa remains surprisingly stable with his viral hit “I’m An Albatraoz” (4-4). There are four new entries on the charts but only one made a high entry: “Winter Wonderland” by Tony Bennett and Lady GaGa. The song is already their third collaboration on the charts after “Anything Goes” (#1) and “I Can’t Give You Anything But Love” (#9) and enters the charts at #6. Jessie J’s “Burnin’ Up” (3-8), Ariana Grande’s “Break Free” (7-9) and Sunrise Avenue’s “Nothing Is Over” (6-10) fill out the Top10.

The most exciting thing in the lower half of the Top20 are four re-entries. Apart from the two already mentioned tracks by Ariana it’s Kelly Clarkson and Malena Ernman who make a little comeback. Kelly’s christmas single “Underneath The Tree” peaked at #9 last year and is back at #14 this time, while Malena Ernman’s #10-peaking “You’ll Never Walk Alone” makes a re-entry at #16.

“Last Night On Earth” by Pegasus (14-21), Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” (17-22), Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space” (16-23), Selena Gomez’ “The Heart Wants What It Wants” (11-24) and David Guetta’s “Dangerous” (19-35) fall out of the Top20 for the first time, with the latter two getting very big drops. As shortly mentionend, there are three more new entries but all of them make their debuts very low. The swiss charity project Migros Ensemble with their christmas hit “Ensemble” are the highest from these three at #34, followed by australian band Sheppard who make their charts debut with “Geronimo” at #37. The final new entry is french DJ The Avener with his big european hit “Fade Out Lines” at #39.

The last thing to mention about this weeks charts – the last weekly charts of 2014 – are several certifications. There are a lot songs that get a new cert this week and much more than most other weeks this year. Lindsey Stirling is the one who has to be the luckiest of all as both “Roundtable Rival” (#19) and “Master Of Tides” (#30) are now certified with Gold while her top hit “Shatter Me” (#27) gets a 2x Platinum plaque.

Ariana Grande’s “Love Is Everything” is the biggest climber while David Guetta’s “Dangerous” is the biggest loser.

• Album Top20

Nicki Minaj remains on top with “The Pinkprint”, getting a second week there. Her previous record “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded” also spent its first two weeks on top, so it will be interesting to see if “The Pinkprint” can beat that next week. Even if it’s christmas time now, the christmas albums aren’t that strong this week except Ariana Grande’s “Christmas Kisses” EP. This was Nicki’s biggest competition as it’s rising 15-2.

Within Temptation are back in the Top3 with “Let Us Burn”, up 4-3. The album is getting certified with Gold this week. Carrie Underwood’s “Greatest Hits: Decade #1” is down 2-4 in its third week, followed by “Cheek To Cheek”. The duet album by jazz legend Tony Bennett and pop mastermind Lady GaGa soars back into the Top10 (14-5) after it debuted atop of the Album Top20 earlier this year. With its new Gold certification this week, it becomes GaGa’s fifth consecutive release with a certification, and Tony’s first one. Jessie J’s “Sweet Talker” leaves the Top3 again (3-6) while Ariana Grande’s “My Everything” remains stable at #7. Olly Murs’ “Never Been Better” slips 6-8, Within Temptation’s “Hydra” is back up 11-9 while One Direction’s “FOUR” closes the Top10 (5-10).

Kelly Clarkson got one of the biggest christmas albums in 2013 and since her two singles are doing well it’s not a big surprise to see “Wrapped In Red” back at #11. Malena Ernman’s winter release “I decembertid” climbs 18-13, which is actually pretty disappointing as it was the most successful christmas related album of the last season.

Anette Olzon’s “Shine” (9-12), Sunrise Avenue’s “Fairytales” (10-14) and Selena Gomez’ “For You” (8-15) are out of the Top10, with the latter one doing so for the first time since its debut. French singer Indila was surely one of the biggest newcomer of 2014 and so it’s nice to see her debut album “Mini World” back at #16 in the last week of the year.

• Airplay Top10

It’s christmas time! And the airplay charts is full of christmas songs this time, with Ariana Grande taking the lead as “Love Is Everything” re-enters the charts at #1 with 65 plays. Its closest rival was Nicki Minaj’s “Grand Piano” which slips 1-2 despite having much more plays than last week.

Ariana’s christmas EP makes the biggest impact this time, as “Santa Baby” (#3), “Santa Tell Me” (#4) and “Snow In California” (#5) are back on the charts and the first two even reach new peaks. Kelly Clarkson’s “Underneath The Tree” is back at #6, while her newly released single “Wrapped In Red” makes a debut at #10. Swedish singer Malena Ernman also has two re-entries with “I Väntan På Julen (Greensleeves)” at #8 and the single “You’ll Never Walk Alone” at #9. Her biggest airplay hit of last year – “Counting Miracles” – just missed the Top10 as it got 20 plays, which is two less than the number ten of the charts this week.

There’s one last song on the charts and it’s a new entry. The Queen Of Pop Madonna is ready for her comeback and plans to release her upcoming album “Rebel Heart” in march 2015. After lots of tracks got leaked, she decided to release some of them, and “Devil Pray” was one of them and debuts at #7 on the airplay charts. Be ready for her slayage in 2015...

Plays of the Top10 went up by 128 to 362 (+54.7%) compared to last week.

Really good to know you think "Masterpiece" is a great song. Deserves to be a success for her!
And "Santa Tell Me" is really good, could be a christmas 'classic' for me

I agree, same for me - at the very least one of my favourite recent Christmas tracks. I think it beat Underneath the Tree, which I thought would be impossible

As for this week's chart, woah at the Love is Everything rise! I still hadn't checked out her other Christmas tracks, but I will now.

I should also listen to Nicki's record - how would you rate it compared to her previous two records?

(Also, yes @ Cheek to Cheek).

Well, i really liked "Underneath The Tree" last year but already back then it was Ariana who slayed me with her christmas releases.
They are all pretty strong if you ask me. Her cover of "Last Christmas" is the weakest though.

It's her best one so far. I never got into "Pink Friday", but i thought "Roman Reloaded" was great. On her second one there were some fantastic tracks (really adored the dance songs), while there's no huge hit on "The Pinkprint" but as a whole album the new one flows perfectly, RR didn't.
Did you like "Pills N Potions" and "Only"? That's how the album sounds, not like "Anaconda"

Nice to see Nicki staying #1 on the album chart

Glad you like her

[Alicepotter]

STM is amazing, mu fave x-mas xong this year, it should be in #1.

STM is amazing, mu fave x-mas xong this year, it should be in #1.

It's definitely a great song, and a new christmas classic for me, but i still prefer "Love Is Everything". Do you like that song as well?

[Storyteller]

Great to see Arian’s Christmas songs charting They’re all brilliant, Santa Tell Me & Snow In California especially.

I hope Carrie rises next week

Glad you like them, "Snow In California" is really good! "Love Is Everything" remains my favorite though

It doesn't looks likely... expect a bigger drop
