In the last 20 years... we've seen some very cool New Wave, most of the biggest dance tunes, the whole electronic music scene from Massive Attack to Zero 7 and, unfortunately, a huge amount of cheesy pop hits.

Not to mention the rock scene is thriving over there. Rock bands coming out of the US these days are real pussies. I don't see many real Rock stars here now. I see guys singing over chords and drums but not many stars. Jack White was the last one to break out recently. But the UK is staying true to the spirit for the most part. It's a great place to be.
