I mean, I guess it's cool that a large swath of the world seems to like listening to my country's music, but I was really hoping for something distinctly Australian or Irish or English or Icelandic or South African or what have you, and yet in all those cases it was the exact same song.

I do wonder if expanding the site to show, say, the top 5 instead of just the absolute top song would be a better indicator; as it stands, it feels like Rammstein was right: "We're all living in Amerika".




The anglophone charts are pretty global; if the chart-topper is American this week in the US it will probably be the same in other anglophone countries. If it's English, ditto (including in the US).
