The most interesting thing about these "top 10" lists is, that even though some of them got a song or two in the top ten, they often have this one major hit and then sink back to a smaller audience. At the same time, bands like Die Ärzte, Toten Hosen and also Rammstein, bands that have been in the business for decades and are being talked about for decades. Are, household names and almost everyone knows them, barely appear in the top 10s of each year. Let's take one song as example: "Schrei nach Liebe", a song from "Die Ärzte" about racists. That song was written in '93. That song is 30 years old by now. And it is still a a usual at their concerts and a usual playing on the radio. It never went away. It is also not made to be top10 material. Top10 songs are usually seasonal. A lot of "summer-vibe" songs. Songs that everyone listens to for a season because it just fits that year. "Schrei nach Liebe" on the other hand is not seasonal. It had relevance 30 years ago and it still has. Maybe even more. (it actually got upvoted into the top songs of the year the first time the AfD appeared to be open right-wing extremist) But there are other songs, Rammstein songs are usually just too offensive in their design to make the list. "Deutschland" is an interesting one, but Rammstein purposefully hyped that song up before it finally released and then it hit. It hit hard. Thing is, the top10s are full of "one-shots". One major hit and then back to the average audience. And you really would expect to have the popular bands and musicians to have a lot of top-10 hits. But then, we are used to hearing them all the time. And while they are undeniably good at what they do, they are not surprising us with being good. Everyone who knows "Die Ärzte" knows what to expect from them. "M&F", the song from them that was in the top10 lists here, was good but also nothing out of the ordinary for them. Except for being one of the less critical songs. Their usual is to be critical and they are very opposed to the right. They are Punk in ideology and thus openly political. And that's the reason why "Deutschland" from Rammstein is weird in the top10. We usually don't have political songs in those lists. They usually don't make it that far up. And that's not because there's a lack of strong political music.

this was sooo interesting Rosenstolz as 'the German Katy Perry' and 'losing the innocence of the early 2000s' and our music getting bit weird at times were actually such insightful observations - encapsulates German music quite well but also should be noted that streaming has led to music being more representative of younger people these days whereas the early 2010s are more cross-generational radio music

Unfortunately these awesome songs are much too short to appreciate them. I know why this is needed, but it hurts a little bit.

Finaly someone does this! Because of rh 257-ers Holland, haha Love it, warm hug from a stranger from the Netherlands ❤

I miss that time so much man. These songs give me so much nostalgia. I was a kid in the 10's, running around in brazil and german tricots after the WM 2014, playing football and building secret hideouts. We didn't have phones, just school and playtime. These were honestly the best times and the music was amazing...

Fr, Ich vermisse diese Zeit so 🥹

The top 10 changed so much because the way we listen to music changed. Back in the day it were CD/vinyl/cassette sales, downloads and also radio air play. So (except for radio) you bought a song or an album once and it counted towards the charts. It didn't matter how often you would actually listen to it. In the mid 2010s, music streaming became more and more popular. Now, didn't have to invest money before listening to a particular song (which lowered the importance of a catching album cover photo but hightened the importance of the beginning of the song - listen to old songs, they have really long intros. Now, the first few seconds have to catch you so you don't skip the song.) But every time you listen, it counts towards the charts. Who adapts to new tech first? Young people. And young people often have time and passion to listen to their favorite music A LOT. and the young people loved rap of the time. That's why there's such a massive shift.

@@ChRW123 that is a different topic. My point was that before the age of streaming, the youth often either just copied their music to listen to it (cassette, burned CDs etc.) and IF they bought it, their purchase just counted once, just like any purchase. Now, one could argue the charts are more accurate because they portrait the times people actually listen, not the purchases. I was a teen in the 2000s, and the peers I knew also loved rap music. But it wasn't in the charts because it was still the era before streaming.

Simple answer: they don't. In this digital age, the German singles charts naturally also include figures from streaming services such as spotify, deezer and co. A large part of the streaming statistics of these wannabe Tupacs is simply the result of fraud. The streaming numbers required for a chart placement can be easily purchased from service providers. This was all uncovered and documented years ago by a team of young journalists.@@ChRW123

In Germany its important to pay attention to the lyrics ( mostly) . most of the lyrics have a double meaning, or they are a very fine german description about the situation in this song, or they find word about relatet to actual or circumstances in the past from our enterprise

Apart from the fact that the music is getting worse and worse because of the autotune and also in terms of content (especially Pseudo Gangsta rap -Which is of course a matter of taste, because I like things like Mötley Crüe and not everyone likes that either ), the funniest thing is that after a song called "Will you do drugs with me", you say that there are so many songs in US music that are not so good for children 😂

For clarification: 187 Straßenbande paved the way for rap music to become mainstream in germany, with their release of "Palmen aus Plasik" in 2016. The album had more of a club sound and was hence played over and over again in german clubs. Rap music became alot more popular after that. That's why there's such a strong transition into rap after 2016. It is also worth noting that the streams on spotify and other streaming platforms count towards chart positioning since 2014. Thats another reason why rap music is a lot more present in the charts.

Wonderful. Many of them I had completely forgotten. Thanks for the reminder.❤❤❤DANKESCHÖN🍺🍺

The trend went to more „hip hop/rap“ and everyone uses autotune. At the end they all sound the same.

ive watched many of ur videos now and i really hope u will visit us in germany one day ;) im sure u will enjoy the beers, food and stuff very much

I love how you stopped vibing once the rap songs became so frequent. I don't listen to rap at all but I like Apache 207 a lot and it says something that you immediately wanted to look him up :D Also thank you for bringing back nostalgia, I'm gonna listen to "Millionen Lichter" again rn. Some songs I can recommend, very niche tho, not popular: Von hier an blind - Wir sind Helden Tanz der Moleküle - Mia. (HUGE recommendation, love her) Gute Laune - RAR Blond - Mia Morgen (Another huge recommendation) Now some more obscure ones, I'm not sure you'd like: Kreislauf - Tropical Ltd Schlachtbank - Eisbrecher

Lieblingsmensch and Astronaut are so nostalgic. I used to love them and listened to them a lot. I still like them because they are pretty much my childhood. Especially Astronaut. I remember in elementary school during PE... The teacher used to play songs like the songs from the first half (cause the others weren't released back than). It just felt so energizing and I really just felt comfortable

they often don't show the best part of the song because they only show it shortly, and they're already a bit older, there's uncountably many

I dont know, I guess I'm just getting old but its just not for me, I cant listen to that without feeling like I'm losing IQ.

Deutschrap has been a genre as the 90s but at least in the past we seemed to have some good artist in the charts. Fettes Brot, Fanta4, Abolute Beginner, Sabrina Setlur (to throw a woman into the mix). Even Rappers like Sido, Bushido or Kool Savage who went more into the edgy/gangster side had some intelligent stuff every now and then, even for a person who isn´t into Rap like myself.

I'm having so much nostalgia right now 🥲 thank you ❤

interesting how I knew way less songs starting at 2016. Everything before that feels so nostalgic!

All of these songs were completely in German. They sometimes sound funny because they are sung in a German dialect or slang that is influenced by Arabic, Turkish, and Eastern European languages. The words are German, but they are sung as if they were from a song in those languages. I'm not a big fan of this style in general, but there are some really great songs that come out of it. And those are the ones that are on this list.

The only song of 2010 which was actually in the overall top 10 most sold songs was Unheilig's "Geboren um zu leben" at no. 4. Ranks 1 to 3 were Israel Kamakawiwo'ole with Over the Rainbow, Shakira with Waka Waka and German singer Lena Meyer-Landrut with her English song Satellite.

this is just so funny watching you reacting to German songs as a German, especially at 12:32 because this song on 9th place is called Benzema and "nine" in german sounds like "nein", wich means "no" so you're saying like isn't that this song standart?! "no, Benzema"😂and the pronounciation of "nine" is insanely accurate to "nein", so it's kind of accent free😅love that, if you'd make a clip out of it, no German would recognize the difference this has actual meme potential😁

The German TikTok songs are Sonne, Fahrradsattel, and that's it. Sonne is about a girl being a sun. Fahrradsattel is about face sitting.

I would appreciate it if you would take a look at the titles with the lyrics. Some of them are very deep. With some you need the context to recognize this. (Loss of friends, etc.) But the melody sometimes doesn't reflect that. That can be confusing. "Geboren um zu leben" by Unheilig, for example, can be seen as a hymn to life, or as a swan song for a friend.

got nostalgia right of the start

"I'm not seeing alot of the same artist", he said after the 3rd cro song lol

Sees Gzuz for the first time, "Whoa this guy is scary!"

The few that do repeat are among the legendary groups/artists like Toten Hosen, Die Ärzte, Ramstein, Seeed and Sido. Some newer are Cro and Sportfreunde Stiller. 2017 and after has a lot of trap or whatever it is called with a lot of 'Eintagsfliegen' (one-hit-wonders)

The guy you looked up with the sunglasses was Apache actually. He is one of the few German artists and especially rapper I listen to. (Also met him once as he lived in my town)

I am from germany and a teenager but know more of the songs from 2010-2017. With most of the other rap songs I had no idea they even existed… 🫣

Props btw for prononcing Sido. Most native english speaker say his name like Dido but with an s but you nailed it

This video made me realize why I have stopped listening to the radio since around 2017/2018 😂 I still like some of the songs from that whole "trap/autotune" trend but overall I fell like everything pretty much sounds the same and you can tell really well by this video 🙈

pretty sure the shift is mostly due to the changes made to how the charts are made in germany. in the mid 10s they started incorporating streaming numbers from spotify etc and young people dont really buy music anymore, but stream instead. so the rap artists who previously wouldnt, now dominate those rankings
