[@Anon-mk4ms]

4:11 that place is in the UK, it's called Durdle Door and is on the south coast.

The Sixties, with the Beatles etc., was known as 'The British Invasion' in the US. The Eighties was known as 'The Second British Invasion'.

[@jadebel7006]

One of The reasons british music was less popular in the 90s and 00s would probably be the difference in popular music genres ..the 90s n 00s in the US was mainly hip hop n rnb focused with some grunge n punk where as the UK was mostly 'pop' and dance music and with some brit-rock, hence why artists like oasis n coldplay did well in the US is coz they appealed the few rock fans that still existed in the late 90s early 00s

[@ajbico]

Also Whitney and Mariah are too famous that time.

[@boogieshizzle]

the Tears for fears Shout song was filmed in a place called Durdle Door in Dorset England xx

[@robwright8649]

Elton was at number 1 for 14 weeks because princess Diana died and that song sung at her funeral

[@petershapland81]

The 80s was the best music in the uk too. We sold 25% of all the worlds music back then

merry christmas from uk 😄

[@willswomble7274]

He is in Dorset, UK!

[@robertpetre9378]

My friends band Dramalove did a really good cover of everybody wants to rule the world by Tears for Fears definitely worth checking out

[@jamieandtherandomstuff]

I've just checked it out. A cover that doesn't stray too far from the original but is sufficiently different to make it worth listening to as well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/amPMiqavhM6HjZosi=fFu2xG12u8e5Em_f

[@aimeek9384]

So George Michael/Wham had the most nr 1 hits in total

[@Derry_Aire]

Maybe Phil Collins/Genesis?

[@aimeek9384]

@@Derry_Aire yes!

[@Chuckyplaysgames]

A red head more popular than annie lennox david Bowie.

[@GBURGE55]

Or Adele?

[@jadebel7006]

Idk who makes these original videos but they'd be alot better if it was every top 10 instead of just number 1, some songs that are at 2,3 and 4, one week, can still sell more n be more popular than what's at number 1 the week after

[@OnlyGoodMusic_]

For the 21st century, yes, but if I did that historically, the video would last hours. Between the 60s and 80s, there were at least a thousand British top 10 hits in the USA.

[@jadebel7006]

A popular red head before her? Ermm hello Mary Poppins, well in every role except Mary Poppins lol

[@top.6180]

The peak of british music in US was the 60's.

[@jadebel7006]

Maybe, I'd say 60s n 80s had equally as big and popular artists , ofc the beatles n stones etc were huuuge but quantity wise I feel there were more popular artists in the 80s

[@OnlyGoodMusic_]

@@jadebel7006 That's only referring to singles. I don't think we should ignore the 70s when it comes to albums, considering that the three biggest stars in singles in the USA during the 70s were British (Elton John, Bee Gees, and the Beatles as solo artists). But in albums, the British had an enormous amount of success in the 70s! Led Zeppelin dominated the entire decade, for example. Let's not forget artists like Peter Frampton, who still holds the record for the best-selling live album in US history.

[@advanced_ict]

I don't think anyone in the UK would want to claim Foreigner!

[@sav0001]

Why not? They have so many well recognized songs. Unless I missed some controversy with them

[@advanced_ict]

@sav0001 No controversy, they're just very American and I don't remember anyone listening to them here in the 80s.

[@PUNKinDRUBLIC72]

Did you call George Harrison the fourth Beatle? You obviously know nothing about music!

[@heekamalokilo7194]

They called him that because they couldn't remember his name in Part 1.
