Apple has posted a list of the top 10 songs purchased from its growing list of country iTunes stores. Even if you don’t use iTunes, you can view the list at www.apple.com/euro/itunes/charts/top10songs.html.
“You’re Beautiful” by James Blunt is number one in France, Germany, Switzerland, and elsewhere but, oddly, not in the UK. I say oddly because the song is in English and the singer is from the UK.
Pop music can be funny that way…
