Posted by: WhoOdyssey 2nd February 2021, 07:36 PM

Never presumed Riton as being English

Posted by: Bré 2nd February 2021, 11:20 PM

Interesting that there were zero Spanish artists to chart in 2020, but there has already been two in 2021!

(btw Canada should be listed as just 1 in the first list if I am understanding correctly? my nitpicking self also feels the need to point out that you included the diacritics for the other artists who have them but not Tiësto)

Posted by: LewisGT 2nd February 2021, 11:27 PM

I think Pete has just missed out Justin Bieber and the 2 for Canada is correct.

Posted by: Bré 2nd February 2021, 11:41 PM

Ah that would make more sense

Posted by: Bjork 3rd February 2021, 11:22 AM

wait, New Caledonia is not a country, isn't it part of France? pretty sure it's not an independent country

Posted by: Bré 3rd February 2021, 02:12 PM

Puerto Rico also isn't an independent country if you're making that argument.

Posted by: PeteFromLeeds 3rd February 2021, 07:17 PM

That is indeed correct, fixed!


Yeah that was my thinking - I'm pretty sure someone from Puerto Rico wouldn't particularly like being called American so I went with the same logic for New Caledonia, particularly as it's on the other side of the world to France.

Posted by: Bjork 3rd February 2021, 08:19 PM

then we Catalan people don't like being called Spanish, so we are independent now!! about time

Posted by: zenon 5th February 2021, 04:17 AM

Ironically Rosalia happens to be from Barcelona, the Catalan capital!

Possibly the only year with more Top 40 hits from Italy than Australia at the halfway stage *.*
Shouldn't New Zealand be in the 'By Song' list too?

Hopefully the Italy tally could increase further by the time the year is out. 🇮🇹
