This Girl holds onto EBBC top spot for second week

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 second week, with French single This Girl notching up its eighth week in the chart overall. 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 French talent n the upper echelons of the European Border Breakers Chart comes from Jain, whose single Come moves from No.6 to round out the Top 3.

The biggest jump this week though is new entry Beautiful Life by Lost Frequencies feat. Sandro Cavazza. It leaps 139-12 to sit just below another Lost Frequencies track, Are You With Me. Also breaking into the Top 20 is Norway's Seeb with Breathe feat. Neev, the highest new entry at No.8, and re-entries for UK acts Year & Years and Clean Bandit, with Desire and Rather Be feat. Jess Glynne at No.19 and No.20, respectively. 

The UK has six tracks in the Top 20 - more than any other country, with France totalling a close five, and Norway and Belgium three each.
