Do small independent countries make better music?
This is just a musing thinking about how U2 and ABBA became massive international successes. Also a stat I read in the Guinness book of hit singles that Jamaica has had the most number 1s in the UK per million population of any country.
And then you think of all the fabulous artists like Altered Images. Rod Stewart and Big Country that made it to the medium time, but not to the big time. Heck, Big Country have a much better song book than U2 but one of them only plays Carling/O2 Academies and the other talks to the pope and only plays when they feel like buying a forest. You can't help feeling that an invisible force has hindered the best scottish bands.
So will music be better if the vote is for 'Yes' or is it better if part of the Union Kingdom?
