    Well, most Americans of different backgrounds, just didn’t care about English people. Remember David Beckham? He was supposed to make the MLS big in the states, he even won the cup his first year. No one gave a fuck 😂

    Wow, I'm actually shocked he wasn't big in america. He was fucking huge in europe.

      He was also big in Asia. His music was everywhere when I was growing up

      It is quite surprising when you look into it.

    You are on point almost entirely. I would make two corrections: Robbie did emulate and identify a pretty important American performer, Frank Sinatra and well all of the rat pack. But I’ll relent on that, in that most younger audiences couldn’t care less about them. So I will go with my gut here (as an American)… the context in which his career was built on. The boyband superstardom, the guy in the band least likely to succeed with the most insecurities. The rawness in which he exposed himself in his music, which only those “in the know” would have gotten. I think British fans (if not the press) were quite literally rooting for the dude, and his success and connection with the audience reflects that. There’s no way American fans would have that context unless they take the time to dive in. I’m thankful that I did, because I can’t think of another artist that has exposed themselves so rawly and regularly. Not even Taylor Swift

    I once read that "Let Me Entertain You" was meant to be the big song in the Glee Pilot, but that was changed to "Don't Stop Believing". Not sure how true that is, but if this had happened, Robbie may have been able to get a foothold in the States.
    Also, here's a suggestion for a similar video: "Why Pink Is So Popular In Australia"
