fixed.

Nope--Elvis was local as hell.
Shania was only global for one era, no idea who Garth Brooks is.
Country + Rock are just as, if not more local than RnB.

I wonder if Disney regrets putting Demi on Frozen and having to pay her. She did nothing for the movie and the movie did nothing for her. I wouldn't even know she was part of it if not for ATRL.

Garth Brooks is not global

I agree!

You're Still the One>>>>My Heart will rot on

Well I think Frozen could have been huge for Demi if she voiced a role in the film.

But just imagine for a minute if Beyonce was in Frozen and sang LIG.

It's really not though.
Let me be real for a second, the only reason I discuss Beyoncé so much is because this place is filled with her stans and I get a good KII out of it. She's popular right now, so getting the BeyHive fuming is easy and fun. Last year it was the same only with Gags and the Little Monsters and sooner or later there'll be another more popular major pop girl to shade and a stanbase to infuriate. All just a bit of fun sweetie .

pop is the only genre that is popular EVERYWHERE lol

i guess rock used to be?

Thanks honey, I'll take it as a compliment .

I knew the banshee shrieks at the end of the film (during the credits) must have been either Demi or Beyonce. So I only needed atrl to clarify.

Elvis was the biggest of his time, in the 50's a lot of markets weren't established yet, and he had heavy demand to tour outside the States but his manager wouldn't allow it because he was an illegal immigrant

Rock is the best-selling genre in the US. Worldwide, I believe rock and pop are pretty close.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...selling_albums
98% of them are rock/pop and there is no pure RNB album in here, they are all assisted by pop songs

They probably thought they needed a more "well-known" and youth-friendly singer to sell the song outside of the movie, on the charts. Little did they know...

Yeah, the only music markets that mattered at all commercially when Elvis debuted were the US and UK.

And Katy being like "Oh, you're a Lamb?" and writing "I stan for you" on his CD
