The latest European Border Breakers Chart is out.
An unchanging Top 2 in the chart sees Kungs vs Cookin' On 3 Burners at No.1 for a third week, with French single This Girl notching up its ninth week in the chart overall and airplay in 18 countries. It knocked Alan Walker's Faded off the top spot, where it had been sitting comfortably since February - the Norway-via-Northampton producer now holds on to the No.2 position.
Further Norway talent rounds out the Top 3, with Breath by Seeb feat. Neev moving 8-3, while the only track to move into the Top 10 come from the French DJ Snake, whose Middle feat. Bipolar Sunshine moves 17-10.
The youngest tracks in the Top 10 are all on their sixth weeks in the chart: Dua Lipa's Hotter Than Hell, which at No.6 sits just below the singer's other track, Be The One (coincidentally one of the oldest tracks in the chart); Sweden's Frans, falling 10-15 with If I Were Sorry; and a new entry, Thorsteinn Einarsson's Kryptonite, which moves 25-18.
Other new entries come from Frances (Don't Worry About Me, 37-17) and Spain's Sofia by Alvaro Soler (39-20).
