Ultratop 50
Ultratop is an organization which generates and publishes the official record charts in Belgium. Ultratop is a non-profit organization, created on the initiative of the Belgian Entertainment Association (BEA), the Belgian member organization of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry. Two parallel sets of charts are concurrently produced and published, one on behalf of Belgium's mainly Dutch-speaking Flanders region, and the other catering to the nation's mainly French-speaking region of Wallonia. Ultratop charts The music charts produced by Ultratop organization are separated along regional-language boundaries, an unusual division that is justified by the cultural differences in Belgium.

The charts are broadcast on several Belgian radio stations, and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Critical reception James Masterton said in his weekly UK chart commentary in Dotmusic, "Now he is back with the followup in pretty much the same vein. Without the novelty value of the first hit it will be interesting to see if this manages to top the Number 3 peak of its predecessor." James Hyman from ''Music Weeks ''RM'' Dance Update wrote, "Currently number one in Germany and hitting hard across the rest of Euro ...
