Don't Swede musicians supposedly have a greater knowledge of melody or something and that's why they make good pop music? I think Madonna, Mariah, & Rihanna have the best melodies inpop music and I don't think any worked prominently with Swedes
Wasn't she the new Queen of Japan there? Applause was high up in the top 10 there in its second week of release.
Ariana's sales in Japan didn't make the cut either over there to name her as the new Queen of Japan. I guess Godga will still have that title after her flop era after all.
Xtina & Trailor are probably the most rejected pop girls in France.
On the subject of Xtina, I noticed yesterday when I was collecting data how embarrassing her total album sales are considering she pretty much debuted the same time as Britney. A Katy Perry tea tbh.
Unfortunately one single with impressive longevity can't make you the Queen of Japan. That's like saying Psy is the King of Pop because Gangnam Style is the most culturally impactful song of the past few years.
