4. Thanks, Kellanved
It doesn't seem to have made it over here -- it's sad how that works, actually. Everyone seems to know the dreck we produce in the US, regardless of their native language, but we won't even play something unless it's in English (or possibly Spanish, but only Latin American Spanish).

8. well, pretty much the same in Europe as well
Especially as local artists are having a hard time finding a label. The big US companies are currently closing their departments for local artists, they will only sell British and American music in the future. This is bizarre, as the departments in question were all making money and were the fastest growing.
There are some claims, that the statistics of the local departments threatened to destroy the statistics for the case for Strong Copy Protection Laws. (totally weird: we're still paying a re-compensation fee for all recordable media, but are no longer allowed to actually use the media for protected music)

So we're getting US and British mainstream hits warmed over, with very few original titles fighting for their place. I think this particular song - actually pretty boring techno-disco-pop - is available on iTunes.
