Scotland: Tonight: Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
Norway, then: Hunting High and Low - a-Ha
Iceland: Debut - Bjork

Sweden: Ace Of Base - yes, I own it.
more or less it. I do have a smattering of other countries represented in my collection, but to be honest I'm not a big fan of any of them. _________________ <(: @ >
