Lo&Leduc with all-time chart record
With the catchy tune "079", the Bernese duo Lo & Leduc set an all-time record. The song has now been at the top of the Official Swiss Singles Chart for 21 weeks.
The duo thus overtook Ed Sheeran's "Perfect" and Luis Fonsi's "Despacito", which each topped the ranking 20 times. Back in the spring, "079" had already surpassed the Swiss best by DJ Bobo ("Chihuahua") and the Minstrels ("Grüezi wohl, Frau Stirnimaa!"). Both hits spent ten weeks at number one.
In the meantime, "079" has sold over 90,000 copies (downloads and streams included), which is equivalent to quadruple platinum. In Germany, "079" has been streamed almost one million times to date.
The Swiss Hit Parade is compiled by GfK Entertainment on behalf of IFPI Switzerland. It is part of GfK, one of the world's largest market research companies.
