Adele

...The black ones.

JESSIE J,  ADELE AN ED HAVE ALREADY CRACKED THE U.S. MARKET ALL THE OTHERS ARE MANUFACTURED RUBBISH THAT ARE TOTALLY TALENTLESS AND THE ONLY THING GOING FOR THEM IS THERE EGOS AND LOOKS. SO THE AVE NO CHANCE AS THERE TEN A PENNY OVER IN THE STATES. YOU NEED TALENT TO SUCCEED AND NOT JUST LOOKS AS MOST YANKS ARE LIKE THEM

The United States is vast and to make it there even for an American one has to be extraordinary and talented that even Robbie Williams didn't crack it. In the US he's mediocre. Boy bands and girl bands are not something that appeals to the yanks and the days of something extraordinary like the Beach Boys who went on to move away from the boy band image and develop really serious stuff and are still going even individually . Paul McCartney recorded with the Beach Boys and I can't think of any current boy band or even girl band he would record with. It's reported that everytime he hears the Beach Boys song 'God only Knows' it causes him to shed a tear. But then the BB did write and produce their own songs which became international. Most of the silly boy and girl bands of today are talentless wannabes singing bubblegum pop music which is heaviliy marketed and appeals to youngsters. They always have a short shelf life.

Only those with talent would crack the American market....so that counts out One Direction and any other xfactor rubbish!

@ Melvyn Hill

When I wrote of the Beach Boys, I singled them out as the ALL TIME GREAT boy band who had real talent and were at the forefront of early pop/rock and were NOT manufactured unlike the wannabes of today. The multi skills and talent of the BB as songwriters, vocalists, producers and international stars crossed all genres of music. The reason I mention the BB is because on opening this page I was confronted with the picture of a boy band. If we are to look at UK success in the USA certainly Susan Boyle deserves a mention for having beaten all records. But then she can sing and is NOT manufactured.

Adele has more chance than the rest of the list.  I'm not a big fan of her music but she's a cut above the rest of the X-Factor drizzle that dominates the UK music scene.

Apart from Adele none of the others have a hope of cracking the U.S.A  None of them are any different to anything that they have over there so why would they be interested in them. America has enough manufactured pop acts of their own without importing our talent free losers. The British rock bands that have made it over there have all had something unique that their contempories in the good old U.S.of A haven't  making them attractive to their market. Whereas most of our manufactured pop acts are merely pale imitations of American pop acts making them irrelevant.

Probably less than a doz uk acts rated by the usa, as mentioned beatles,stones,fleet​wood mac, ledzep, police,george michael, elton, annie lennox, u2, more recent radiohead, others come and go, even one,s successful here like oasis, blur, robbie, couldnt make it, Adele is good enough to, needs to tour.  All the beatles loved as individuals. They love and adopt the best.  Pity we take some of the usa rubbish acts along with their best.  As for one d, little mix, etc, wont even last here.

 

ermmm...MSN....Adele has definitely made it into the USA...more then any other artist's that you have mentioned!!
