O Zone are Moldovan, but as you say the song is sung in Romanian. They were based in Bucharest for a time too. The cover version, by Haiducii (a Romanian female singer) never troubled the UK charts as far as I can see but was a huge hit in Italy.

That's another one where a nationality could be argued either way and on another day from when I set up their database entry I may well have flagged them up as part Romanian. Michael Cretu was indeed born in Romania, but left as a child and spent time in France before going to college and then settling in Germany. His wife and the other members of Enigma were (as far as I know) fully German.

Deetah is an interesting one, I maybe should have included her as my primary point of reference is usually either where they grew up or (if known) citizenship held. Most of the Wikipedia categories she is in actually take her to be British! Eric Turner was born and raised in the US to an American family, so I've got him as American. He is resident in Sweden now though, so like a number of these cases, "you pays your money..." There are a few cases where things could be interesting, for instance if Tina Turner has another new hit (unlikely but not impossible) do we consider her now as Swiss? Sir Cliff is now a Barbadian national, born in India but I will always mark him as British. I've got Placebo there because of a Swedish member, but where does Brian Molko fit in? British or Belgian? He also spent time during his childhood in Lebanon and Liberia. Allocating someone's nationality can be a minefield even where much of the required information is known. It is even worse when a lot of the pieces of the jigsaw are hard to find, for instance most of those who made "fake" pre-release versions a couple of years ago. I don't pretend to be right every time (or even to be 100% consistent but I think I've done a reasonable job).

Acts from various countries in the UK singles chart
Looking at doing more Nordic countries I have come across an act called "Skandi Girls", who had a Top 40 hit with "Do The Can Can" at Christmas 2004. The last Virgin book says "Swedish/Norwegian/Finnish female vocal group". I am happy with the last three words but can find nothing to corroborate their nationalities or a simple list of members. It might even be a British novelty group posing as Scandis for all I know. Can anyone put any flesh on the bones please?

And it's quite ironic that someone complaining about lack of capitalization in an article subtitles it as being at the "bbc".
