Notes about this week's new entries:

4. Cry – Bingo Players
The Bingo Players - Paul Bäumer and Maarten Hoogstraten - have been working as a house/trance DJ duo for several years. Their big break came in 2008 with their international dance/club hit Touch me, followed by a number of high profile collaborations with various world famous DJs. Cry (Just a little) is their first big commercial hit.

7. Mijn laatste lied voor jou (My last song for you) – Los Angeles: The Voices
This all-male vocal group is led by Dutch singer Gordon - also known as an outrageous TV-host, member of campy cabaret act De Toppers and jury member of Holland's Got Talent. However, he’s got his softer side as well – this song is a tribute to his late mother.

8. Bottles – Krystl
Krystl Pullens is a 27-year old singer who studied voice and dance at the Rotterdam Conservatory and one at of the Netherlands’ official Pop Academies. After graduating in 2006, she tried to make a name for herself as a singer/songwriter, resulting in last year’s acclaimed Golden days. Bottles is her second single.
