Chartwatch: Who’s leading the charts in Spain, Italy, France, Germany & UK?

Going on holiday? And wondering which tracks you might get bombarded with over the next fourteen days while you’re relaxing near the pool? Well don’t worry any longer, because GloPop is here to give you an overview of what’s currently topping the chart in five of Europe’s biggest music industries.

Spain: Cali & El Dandee feat. David Bisbal – No Hay 2 Sin 3 (Gol) (out Now!)

Alejandro Rengifo (Cali) and Mauricio Rengifo (Dandee), together Cali & Dandee, are a Colombian dance duo who have teamed up with Spain’s most popular singer David Bisbal for an uptempo summer dance anthem entitled ‘No Hay 2 Sin 3 (Gol)’. The song’s been in the Spanish chart for 9 weeks but has only managed to attain the number 1 this week. It’s the second number 1 single for the Colombian duo.

Germany: Lykke Li – I follow Rivers (Out now!)

Swedish songstress Lykke Li will be chuffed. Although her track ‘I follow Rivers’ has been out since 2008, it’s now nearly three four years later proving to be a massive hit at the continent. Belgium, the Netherlands and France have fallen for her mesmerizing indie-pop track last year, and now it’s Germany’s turn to welcome Lykke Li as their number one.

Italy: Gusttavo Lima – balada boa tche tche rere (Out Now!)

22 year old Brazilian pop singer Gusttavo Lima, has followed into the footsteps of country man Michel Teló and is currently conquering many European countries with his summer hit ‘Balada Boa (Tche Tche rere)’. Job done in Italy however, as the man’s steadily holding on to the number 1 position for six full weeks. The whole of Europe has fallen for Brazilian pop so be aware!

France: Carly Rae Jepsen – Call My Name (Out Now!)

Canadian superstar Carly Rae Jepsen, proves to be a strong contender for the end of year charts. Her global debut ‘Call Me Maybe’ has taken its number 1 position back in France after being number 1 for a week in June. The total amount of weeks on number 1 in France comes down to three weeks. Well done Carly!

United Kingdom: Maroon 5 – Payphone ft Wiz Khalifa (Out Now)

Things looked rather grim at first for Maroon 5 latest single ‘Payphone’ when a released cover of their track made it nearly to the top. However good news for the American guys, who managed to take the number 1 last week. Whether they can hold on for another week will be difficult. the Calvin Harris Remix of Florence+ The Machine’s track ‘Spectrum’ seems to be having the number 1 in the bag. We’ll find out tomorrow.

T.G.I.F Oceana ‘Endless Summer’ Video

It’s Friday evening and time for a major weekend. Radio 1 is celebrating it’s big Hackney weekend with loads of superstars taking the stage while England is taking on Italy at tomorrow’s Euro 2012. Yet the weekend kicks off tonight with another important football match; Germany against Greece. So what a better way then have a look at our German friends and what’s reigning in the charts.

Keeping football in mind, and a banger for Friday to kickstart it all left us with this rather infectious track by German singer Oceana. The Wedel-born with Afro-Martiniquais descent is currently scoring a huge hit at home with the official Euro 2012 home track ‘Endless Summer’. Though she’s been active in the music industry since 1998, it’s her first big hit, taken from her new album, which is also out today.

‘Endless Summer’ is as the title says summery, it’s got the instant recognizable dance beat which was previously prominent in the tracks made by Romanian producers and singers like Inna and Alexandra Stan. Based on how those tracks fared, we wouldn’t be surprised to see this going down the same route and be a likely contender to become the European summer hit across the continent. Perfect for our TGIF chapter.

Good news for the fans, the track is already available through iTunes and any other online retailer.
