Mine will be a short enough list...indeed, don't know if I even have a Canadian artist. Worth mentioning, that is.
U.S.: Little Moon - Grant Lee Phillips
U.K.: Chrome - Catherine Wheel
Ireland: Hey Ma - James
Scotland: Tonight: Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
Norway, then: Hunting High and Low - a-Ha
Iceland: Debut - Bjork
Australia: Business As Usual - Men at Work
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. _________________ <(: @ >
