why are australians so bad at music?
it actually takes more luck than anything to break out in australia to an international audience.
north america and europe don't know just how easy they have it
The top 50 of France is the biggest pile of shit on the entire platform
>t. french

>>127167068 (OP)The used all their luck to create Gotye.
>>127167068 (OP)They have a population of only 10 million compared to America's 400 million for one
>>127167283maybe according to /pol/ but irl there are 27m australians (10.5m swedes by comparison)
>>127167346Sweden has its own language so it makes sense they prefer it over languages they can't speak like English. Australia listens to english bands from the US and UK
>>127167068 (OP)Are Australians good at ANYTHING? I think that anybody who lives there is just retarded, indigenous or immigrant. Didn't the UK send criminals from Britain and Ireland there, and it was all just a big jail for centuries? Would explain a lot.
>>127167068 (OP)None of you guys are listening to Brazilian or South African music, don't even pretend
>>127167068 (OP)not sure you understand how to read a chart.
This chart shows that american music is dead thoughbeit.
>>127167357fair enough, still having zero local artist (currently) in the top 50 is weird, Ireland has 15 songs from local artists for example and a 5m population
>>127167413not sure you understand how to read
>>127167465the chart shows that australians don't listen to australian music. not that australian music isn't listened to. australia has a comparatively small population. OP can't into statistics because he is a faggot retard.
>>127167479>the chart shows that australians don't listen to australian music. not that australian music isn't listened to.uh huh, who's listening to australian music then? indians?

seems like they own the gospel market, very cringe
It’s incredible harder for aussie artists to debut at billboard, The Less I Know The Better was a huge hit overseas but it didn’t make it into the billboard charts.
>>127167367Did you know that before australia the criminals got sent to the US?
>>127168067no Avalanches? lots of names I never heard here
Seems inevitable when places like Triple J and 4ZZZ which used to be the homes of upcoming bands were unironically taken over by gays and trannies.
>>127168180Maybe you should try listening to new artists, unc
>>127167496funny how that anon stopped replying to you

>>127167357 Over 80% of swedes are fluent in English tho.
>>127167068 (OP)they spend all their time surfing and fucking bitches
they lack the struggle and neuroticism to create good music
>>127167068 (OP)those local artists in Germany are not german
