United Kingdom 635,473 560,609 13.4% France 154,469 127,656 21.0% Italy 291,577 236,862 23.1% Azerbaijan 511,339 409,624 24.8% Spain 306,331 251,369 21.9% Germany 480,100 409,309 17.3%

Russia is holding onto that top lead, but they are one of the slowest gainers this time around. Seems like Cyprus is trying to drive it home as they are quickly catching up to Russia! I wonder when they'll be hitting 1 million views. 3rd place is slowly opening up with Azerbaijan making huge gains this week and Turkey and Germany making large gains as well. UK is falling slowly, but their view count is still fairly high. Sweden had a massive gain this week though. They had almost a 40% increase in views! I think this might be due to Sweden's video starting to gain popularity in the states, but we'll see what happens to Sweden and if they can time their peak to coincide with the big competition.
