As the first single with German interpreters, Smiles from Crazy Otto entered the Billboard Hot 100 in 1955. The first number one hit by a German performer came from Bert Kaempfert in 1961 with his Wonderland by Night (English version of Wonderland by Night ). Furthermore, in 1975 Silver Convention with Fly, Robin, Fly / Tiger Baby , in 1989 Milli Vanilli with three different singles in a row and in 2015 Felix Jaehn with Cheerleader (Felix Jaehn Remix) reached the top position. Kaempfert was able to record the most chart successes overall with eleven chart listings. The record for the longest stay on the Billboard Hot 100 goes to Another Night by Real McCoy with 45 chart weeks . The best-selling singles were each awarded a triple platinum award for over three million units sold. These are the singles Clarity ( Zedd feat. Foxes ), Break Free ( Ariana Grande & Zedd) Cheerleader (Felix Jaehn Remix) ( Omi / Felix Jaehn) and Starving ( Hailee Steinfeld & Gray feat. Zedd). Three songs were successful in the original in German: Die kleine Bimmelbahn by Marianne Vasel & Erich Storz (“The Little Train” was just the single label), Autobahn by Kraftwerk and the 99 balloons by Nena .
