Many people believe Friday the 13^th brings bad luck. On the contrary, our music editors believe this is the best day of the year and they have expressed it in this week’s GRR HOT 15. Two British bands – Coldplay and the Prodigy enter the chart in order to shake it to its core! Prodigy’s “Invaders must die” made it to first place in European TOP 100 after pushing back Bruce Springsteen! Such a comeback and song had to enter this week’s chart and make your head rock back and forth! Coldplay on the other hand, will make your “Life in Technicolor” so be careful not to drive your neighbors nuts while listening to those great songs, which are on 14^th and 15^th place respectively.

This week, Alesha Dixon is proudly leading GRR HOT 15 with her great dance hit “The boy does nothing” followed by Lady Gaga and “Just Dance,” which fell to second place. Both songs have been rocking the chart for three weeks in the TOP 5!

The rapper Flo Rida is definitely fixing our moods with his song “Right Round” and he keeps climbing up – this week on number 3! On number 13, his Greek competitors though are not doing so well, which is understandable because Goin’ Through with “Dev Kano Diakopes” has had their fare share in the top positions. On the other hand, the third hip-hop candidate – the Bulgarian Horata ot Getoto with “Az i Ti” (You and I) are chasing Flo Rida but are still far down on number 8.

The Greek Eurovision candidate Sakis Rouvas with “This is our night” is slowly but surely rising in GRR HOT 15 ever since it entered the chart. Illusion by Krasi Avramov fell with two positions and landed on number 5 – right under Sakis! We love both songs and can’t wait to see what Europe has to say about them in Moscow!

The charming and relaxing ballade “Love Lockdown” by Kanye West is taking over our hearts from number 6 this week. It seems that there is too much party going around because this song pushed down the dance hit “Chance to Love You” by JuraTone, which is nervously balancing on the 7^th position.

One position down, on number 9 is “Forbidden” (Apagorevmeno) by Anna Vissi. The song managed to climb up to fifth place before it started falling again but still that doesn’t change the fact that it is one of Anna’s best songs! The name of the song is the same as the album’s name because Anna wanted to play with her fan’s emotions when she said “Let’s name the album “Forbidden,” so that when people buy it, they feel like they are doing something wrong.” And yes, the “forbidden apple” worked and songs from this album are in almost all Greek charts!

“Close my eyes” by Sander Van Doorn and Robbie Williams jumped one position up, in order to land on number 10. Great song and we are sure it will keep rising in GRR HOT 15! The same is certain for Milenita and “Niama”! The amazing rhythm of this song makes everyone’s fingers snap! In today’s competitive music world, this is very hard, so we are sure Milenita is going to be a huge success!

The new Greek song from last week “An Ise Esi” by C:Real is fighting the chart’s competition fiercely and managed to get to number 12 this week but it is certain that such a dancing song will rock our worlds and will reach high!
