It bothers me that American radio will only play music that's in English. Anybody else ever notice this? I mean, I know there are MANY problems with the radio industry in America, but it bothers me the most radio stations will never play anything that doesn't come from the US or the UK. And when it is from the UK, it's never for very long. Adele managed to break through, but I doubt she'll last very long.
Meanwhile, across the pond in Europe, American and English music blows the charts week to week. Jennifer Lopez is #2 in Germany, and there are only two or three German songs that have a billing. What the Hell?
Why is it that radios don't play Italian, German, French, Japanese, Mexican or otherwise?
Why does Britney Spears sell albums in Japan, but Utada Hikaru nothing more than a small cult-following?
Any thoughts on this?
