Scour foreign pop charts! Deliver the goods here!

David Fonseca does have a really off-putting voice. It's like Cherie Currie crossed with Brandon Flowers.

This is the Sandy e Junior one on Brazilian Sunday variety TV http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoTFI0MFxrM&mode=related&search= Check out those dance routines!

this is a great idea for a thread.

#16 France Julie Zenatti - Princesse (Tango)The French Gwen Stefani, perhaps?

Meanwhile, this is the charttopper Koxie - Garcon. I don't know what I think about this.

HAHAHA

#7 in Germany: Bushido-Alles verloren

via Wikipedia: Bushido (September 28, 1978 in Bonn, Germany), born Anis Mohamed Youssef Ferchichi, is a German rapper whose style is strongly influenced by American Gangsta rap. He also uses the pseudonym Sonny Black. Bushido sucks!!

AND THE NETHERLANDS! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! Worst taste ever?
1. Guus Meeuwis - Proosten
2. Mika - Relax (Take It Easy)
3. Jeroen van der Boom - Jij bent zo
4. James Blunt - 1973]
5. Gerard Joling & André Hazes - Blijf Bij Mij

And video of the week: #5 in Slovakia, HORKÝŽE SLÍŽE - RnB Soul

ok that 2nd dude's lyrics couldn't possibly warrant his behavior.

the track is good though, could use more of a bridge or something

Booty Luv - Don't Mess With My Man (10/10, puts the original to shame!!!)

I wouldn't say that. How different does it even sound to the Mood II Swing remix on the original release?

Pink's "Dear Mr. President" hit number one in Austria a couple of weeks ago, at least partially because because they show the video with German subtitles in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland -- it's kinda creepy how many Austrians wanted to talk to me about the song when I was there last month, as if it were unimaginable that an actual AMERICAN might actually PUBLICLY OPPOSE the BUSH ADMINISTRATION. At least two folks asked me if anybody in the States realized that Pink was a genius before the single was released. They're always crushed when I tell them she didn't have the guts to release the song as a single in the States.

Booty Luv - Don't Mess With My Man (10/10, puts the original to shame!!!)

as in "you can have my husband but please don't mess with my man"???

#9 in Argentina: Belanova - Cada Que...

It's like Swygart Jr.

Seems as good a place as any to mention this, which we have been running for the last few weeks. There's a few intriguing games up there now. I have been managing Italy, btw.

Namie Amuro - Fast Car, just entered at 37 in Japan
Can't find Youtube, but I also like this a lot: http://vlog.xuite.net/_pub/play.php?media_id=NjRnV3FoLTIzNzM0NTAuZmx2

American charts are foreign, right?
