German Sweep: September 2, 2014...


Time to head over the border to see the songs making the official singles chart in Germany this week, as David Guetta spends a second week on top with "Lovers On The Sun"...

The top debut at #22 is from "Mr. Worldwide" himself as Cuban-American rapper Pitbull lands at #22 with "Fireball" featuring John Ryan. It's the first single from his upcoming Globalization album; he had his first #1 in this country as a lead artist with "Timber"...

Dutch electrohouse DJ and producer Oliver Heldens comes in a notch below Pitbull at #23 with "Gecko (Overdrive)" featuring Becky Hill. The single had already topped the British singles chart...


Usher gets his first hit in Germany in two years with "She Came To Give It To You" featuring Nicki Minaj at #30. Ten years ago he went to #1 here with "Yeah!"...


will.i.am enlisted newbie Cody Wise on another British #1 to debut on the German chart this week, "It's My Birthday", which enters at #41...


Taylor Swift moves in at #48 with "Shake It Off". Her success has been sparse in this country, landing only three top-40 hits so far, with one top tenner ("I Knew You Were Trouble" went to #9)...


I'm not sure of the reason behind this, but "Cry", a Rihanna track that was a bonus on some of the international versions of her 2007 Good Girl Gone Bad album, arrives on the chart at #64...


French indie-rock artist Talisco enters at #69 with "Your Wish"...


Austrian rapper Chakuza is in at #80 with "Off". Back in 2007 he went to #25 with "Eure Kinder"...


Katy Perry comes in at #88 with "This Is How We Do", the fifth single from her Prism album. The first, "Roar", climbed to #2 in Germany last year...


American ingenue Meghan Trainor takes her self-worth anthem "All About That Bass" to #91 here...


Teesy moves in at #94 with "Keine Rosen" ("NO Roses"), and the retro-style swayer is my "German Pick of the Week"...


Lastly, at #95, is from Texas native Brandon Beal with "Twerk It Like Miley" feautring Christopher. The track has already topped the chart in neighboring Denmark...
