French Sweep: April 23, 2013...


Hey gang, it's time again to cross the Atlantic to check out the songs making their first appearance on the top-100 singles in France this week, as rapper Maitre Gims hangs on for a fourth week with "J'me Tire"...

The big debut on the chart at #32 is K-Pop sensation PSY, whose "Gentleman" has racked up over 200 million views on YouTube (probably sending Bill Werde into premature ejack)....

French reggae performer Keen'V  comes in at #64 with "Ca Va Le Faire!" ("Gonna Do"). He took "J'aimerais Trop" to #3 in 2011. This is by "French pick of the Week"...


German dance act Italobrothers (misleading, no?) arrive at #67 with "This Is Nightlife"...


Scottish DJ/producer Calvin Harris enters at #74 with "Drinking From The Bottle". As a lead artist, Calvin has gone top-20 with "Sweet Nothing" and "Feel So Close". Its featured artist, British rapper Tinie Tempah, went to #21 with "Written In The Stars"...(NSFW)

The final entry of the week at #97 is the acoustic version of Justin Bieber's "As Long As You Love Me". The original made it to #48 here last year...
