Stromae, also known as Paul van Haver, has the honors of the Download of the Week - with his song 'Alors On Danse'. Stromae is a singer-songwriter of Rwandan-Belgian origin - his father is Rwandan, his mother, Belgian. In 2009 Paul worked as a young trainee at the musical radio station NRJ in Brussels. Vincent Verbelen, Music Manager, was impressed by this song and decided to air it for the first time on NRJ. The response from listeners was one of extreme enthusiasm and Stromae’s career was launched. Sales quickly rose to number one in Belgium in just a matter of weeks. By May 2010 the track had reached number one in France, the Netherlands, Greece, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Denmark, Belgium and the Czech Republic. I love to dance to this song and it's the most played track in my Ipod right now!
