What does the world think of British music?


Having witnessed Britain's Got Talent runner up Susan Boyle singing Wild Horses on American TV, I was wondering what the world thought of music to come out of the UK?

There are lots of examples of course, ranging from The Rolling Stones to Oasis, the likes of Elton John, who is of course constantly over in Las Vegas performing. Then there was of course, Queen, who had a legendary status over here.

Does British music tend to make it's way over to the US and beyond, or is it all pretty limited to our shores?

Leona Lewis was of course an X-Factor winner a couple of years ago, and seemed to have a bright future ahead of her, and more than likely still does, even though it's gone a bit quite recently, I guess we'll get the usual release at Christmas, as she attempts to be Christmas Number One once again.

But what do you really think of our music, do you like it?

Do you buy or download a lot of British music?

Having tried my hand as a radio presenter in my younger days, I would be interested to hear your views on whether we're on the way up, or on the way down in terms of music popularity across the world.

Does Susan Boyle float your boat?

So, what's your view?
