Elena Nikolova

Hello everyone! I hope I am finding you in good mood and rested after your holidays! What can I say? Holidays are great but just like everything, they have an end. And thank God for that, because if they didn't, how would we appreciate them for what they are? Yes, you're right...I got a little philosophical on you! So anyway, this week the chart is going to rock you off of your feet and I hope this energy will be enough to give you a nice weekend start!

Number one this week is the Queen of pop music Madonna with her new hit Celebration. The song was written and produced by Madonna, Paul Oakenfold, Ian Green, and Ciaran Gribbin. The album Celebration is the ultimate compilation of Madonna songs and it hit the market on August 2.

Following Madonna on number two is Kiss me thru the phone by Soulja Boy Tell 'Em featuring Sammie. The song made a huge jump of 13 positions since the issue of the last chart. One position down and on number three is rising star of Richard Durand and his song Always the Sun. This song was driving all clubs nuts on all Greek islands and I'm sure we can agree that there is no doubt about why.

On number four this week is the cute funny remake of Katy Perry's song I Kissed a Girl. The remake is sang by Nino & Kokkina Halia and the new name is I Kissed a Boy! Brave move for conservative Greece but then again when I think about it I guess the only conservatives left in Greece are the elderly.

Gaga is back! Well, she never went anywhere but her song Paparazzi finally hit the charts and this week she came to GRR HOT 15. Bold move on Gaga's part about the video...you can check out the extended version here. Sometimes I wonder is this creativity, being in touch with oneself and not minding death or just a way to make money? To be honest - I don't know but nevertheless Lady Gaga entered the chart one more time and this week she is on number 5.

Guess who else is back!? Yes, Britney is back in the house with her song Radar. The name of the song might be appropriate for a recent "accident" that happened at one of Britney's concerts in New York. "Security had to remove three fans from the aisles of the New York City arena after other fans complained that they were dancing too provocatively. Yes, fans complained about risqué dancing," reports THS. I will not go into detail because of some vulgar language but if interested you can read the whole article here. Anyway, Radar is on number six this week.

Number seven in GRR HOT 15 this week is Stereo Love by Edward Maya featuring Vika Jigulina. Both artists are Romanian and pretty "fresh" but this does not stop them from making absolute hits! This song has been rotating on all radio stations in Greece and is making everybody absolutely crazy! I hope you like it.

Seven positions down and on number eight is Despina Vandi with her song Iparhi Zoi. The diva was number one if the last GRR HOT 15 before the BEST 15 issue. Four positions up and on number nine is Love by Inna. The other Romanian which left everybody with their mouths (and ears) open! I guess Romania is attacking the music industry in a good way. It is nice to hear great songs coming from Eastern Europe and I am doing my best of introducing them to you!

Number ten is Sakis Rouvas with a remake of his song This is our night (Eurovision 2009). The remake is called Pio Dinata (Louder). Saki wins over our hearts every time he comes out with a new song and I hope this time will not be different.

Number eleven is reserved for a Bulgarian singer, who is entering the chart this week. This is Galia with her song 3 minuti do show (3 minutes until the show). Great rhythm and nice video! I hope you enjoy it and I hope Galia will surprise us with more great songs!

Black Eyed Peas is back in GRR HOT 15 and this time with their new song I Gotta Feeling. There is not much to say about BEP, because pretty much any new song they come out with, becomes a hit. This is no exception!

This week number 13 is Eleftheria Arvanitaki with her song Den Milo Gia Mia Nyhta Ego. The song went down with 8 positions and I guess the reason is because it couldn't hold off against the strong competition. Still, this track remains one of Eleftheria's best hits!

Number 14 is a song, which will make you sway - Heartbreak by Freemasons featuring Sophie Ellis-Bextor. Actually "sway" might be a mild word...rock? Yes, that's the other extreme but you get my point! Check out the song and the video and I'm sure you'll love it.

Number 15 in GRR HOT 15 is Calvin Harris with his song I'm not alone. Nice slower track, which will calm you down after all the dancing. Well, at least in the beginning of the song, because after that you should prepare yourself for a little kick in!

Well, enjoy this week's chart and don't forget that with our new design you are now able to vote for your favorite song!
