Talk:Mama Lover (song)

Claim of First to Chart Since 'All the Things She Said'
This article makes the claim that this was the first song by a Russian act to chart on a United States Billboard chart since t.A.T.u.'s All the Things She Said, which appears to be incorrect. t.A.T.u's Not Gonna Get Us charted #1 on the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart, and their song All About Us peaked #13 on that same chart. t.A.T.u. member Lena Katina's solo hit Never Forget peaked #1 on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart. All of these charted at times spanning between the success of All the Things She Said and Mama Lover on the US component charts. Therefore, this claim is clearly invalid. I'd desire to see to the removal of that claim from the article, but first I wanted to share my reasoning. SecretName101 (talk) 07:28, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

If I am not incorrect, I do believe they were the second Russian group to chart in the US, and (counting Lena Katina's solo career as a separate entity from her membership in t.A.T.u.) the third overall Russian artists to chart in the USA. Aside from Lena Katina's Lift Me Up, I am not sure if another Russian artist's song had charted since Mama Lover. SecretName101 (talk) 21:15, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

Lena Katina in 2011 also charted on both the US Hot Latin Songs chart (#32) and the US Latin Pop Airplay chart (#2) as a featured artist on the promotional single Tic-Toc" by Belanova. SecretName101 (talk) 17:45, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

I revise that earlier statement. Serebro were the third Russian group to chart in the US, and (counting Lena Katina's solo career as a separate entity from her membership in t.A.T.u.) the fourth overall Russian artists to chart in the USA. Before t.A.T.u. first charted in 2003, the group Gorky Park charted with both their album Gorky Park on the Billboard 200 and single Bang on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1989.
