Further down the chart, just missing the top 40 at #42 is former Eurovision winner Lena with "If I Wasn't Your Daughter". It's a quite lovely ballad, nothing what you originally thought the title would mean...

Meanwhile, on the albums chart in the country, indie-rock band Kraftklub take over the #1 spot with Keine Nacht für Niemand ("No Night For Nobody"). It's their third #1 album out of four releases (the odd one out was a live set)...

Roger Waters (originally Pink Floyd's main man) comes in at #3 with Is This The Life We Really Want?. Back in 1992 he went to #4 with Amused To Death; this is his second solo trip to the top ten here...

Hip-hop duo SXTN, from Berlin, enter at #8 with Leben am Limit ("Life At The Limit")...
