This week GRR HOT 15 bets on the lucky number 3. Four songs climbed up with three positions and two fell down with the same number. Now, let us take a look.
As a part of his promotion tour in Europe, Eminem sang in Germany for the RTL viewers. He performed his song “We Made You” and drove the studio audience crazy. This song has quickly reached the top of the international charts, including GRR HOT 15, where Eminem is first after climbing up with 3 positions. Following him, on second place are T.I. and Justin Timberlake with their song “Dead and Gone,” who raised with three positions as well. Third in GRR HOT 15 is Kokkina Halia with “Hartaetos.” The group also made a big jump and landed on this prestigious place.
After his disappointment from Eurovision, Sakis Rouvas stepped away from the first place and went down to fourth. His performance on the competition was spectacular and despite the failure, his song “This is our Night” will continue to be just as intriguing and breathtaking.
Fifth place in GRR HOT 15 is reserved for LiLana, Snoop Dog & Big Sha with their song “Dime Piece,” which is quickly going up in the chart. LiLana was the center of ridicule in the American show “The Young Turks” (TYT). The presenters were imitating her, saying that she could not sing and that she has a bad accent. One of the presenters even said that LiLana probably slept with Snoop Dog and he made this video in order to mock her. (You can check out the video here.)OK, enough said. All the rest of us, who live in the real world or do not need to make money at someone else’s expense, in order to make a show, know that this song deserves to be a part of today’s music scene. In addition, it might be understandable why TYT cannot be civil. After all the Turkish singer on Eurovision managed to embarrass herself enough by going on stage with a huge stain on the front of her dress.
This week, number six is Britney Spears with the song “If U Seek Amy.” When the song entered the chart, it climbed up and reached the comfortable number two but not higher. The singer spent $10 million dollars on her “Circus” tour and I guess it was worth it, because she was among the leaders in most charts.
Miro is the first performer to make it to number one in the Big 50 chart of CITY TV, singing in Bulgarian (“Losing Control When…”). We are all very happy that he was recognized, because his music was waiting to be acknowledged. In GRR HOT 15, his song “Avgust e septemvri” was leading the chart for a week and now it is on number 7. Definitely not bad, because many other singers came and left and he is still holding his “GRR” position.
This week Anna Vissi passed over Filippos Pliatsikas, who remains on the same 9th position. Anna climbed up to number eight with her song “Stin Pyra”, with her momentum seeming to last quite long. And while “Stin Pyra” is climbing up, “Balarines Epitreponte” is keeping its last week’s place. The “hippie” song might start falling down, which will not be good for our summer mood, but we can wait and see.
