Top 10 Countries With the Best Musicians
America might have its share of revolutionary bands, and canada may have its fair share of overrated pop, but the UK is were everything started. The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Queen, and many other bands literally started the majority of music genres, and they all came from the UK. Radiohead, and Pink Floyd both practically recreated Alternative Rock, and the very Genres that are Metal, Hard rock, and Rock would not exist without the Rolling Stones The Beatles, and Led Zepplin. America might have Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana, and Bob Dylan, but UK is the very basis of practically every genre of music. They influenced music from the beginning of the 1900s, and continue to influence it today. Face it people, without the UK We would just be without certain genres, we would simply be without music.
Who else. For a country so small to influence the world to such a degree. The UK consistently outperforms and leaves a footprint many times greater than its size. Many of the greatest bands of all time, pioneers, and musical influences have come from here. It seems their international and outside perspective on the world uniquely allows them to feed back outside influences: the greats, Beatles, Led Zepp, Rolling stones, etc... took what already existed and was buried and made it into their own flavour. Even today, the UK outperforms any country in nurturing their musical talents and success.
If you take the UK and US out of the global music equation you have nothing. The UK lead the way with America close behind and the world left in their dust. The culture that we have brought is unmeasurable to all who listen to the songs that have given inspiration to this generation of musicians who have who hell of a challenge trying to match up to their predecessors. An impossible task in my opinion.
I mean who was it that managed to combine rock and opera together making it so amazing that no one can even compare? Oh yeah; Queen! Who just happen to come from the UK alongside The Beatles and The Rolling Stones who are still accounted as the best bands in the world even though they have stopped composing. No one can compete.
Everyone here hates my favorite genre of music so much that is pathetic because it is clearly what the world listens to. I'm not even going to name the genre, its obvious. I have no problem with people hating one of my life's passions and an integral part of what gets me by in life, but how dare you suggest that it is not even music.

How about we use the music from today, not 40 to 50 years ago,
Even though the U. S music is trash, every where I go I here it and its like, where is everyone Else's music at. I'm a journalist so it's my job to know theses things.

Nightwish is the only Finish band I know of.
Poets of the fall!
Festivals in Philippines seem to be less about drug distribution and more about the music compared to the UK.
Just Charice, Lea Salonga, Sarah Geronimo, Arnel Pineda and any others. They can beat all of them.
Invented Karaoke! Enough said.
Some of my favorite singers are Ariel Rivera, Rey Valera, Darren Espanto, Iñigo Pascual and his father Piolo Pascual, Raymond Lauchengco, Martin Nievera, Gary Valenciano, Rico J. Puno, Imelda Papin, Sharon Cuneta, Daryl Ong, Charice (now Jake Zyrus), Victor Wood, April Boy, Erik Santos and Angeline Quinto.

There is no other country in the world is as talented as indians in music... I think India would be in the top because united kingdom, USA and others' singing style is like- wave your head and make a chorus, and it will be a music! They think so but the real is that music is a rhythm through which feelings are expressed and Indian music have done it... Indian music has no craziness like UK, USA and others but have the power of expressing real feelings...
If any superstar musician, band artist or singer can sing the Indian classical, Karnataki Sangeet, Dhrupads, bhatiali, vaoiya and many other Indian traditional music then I will never comment in this matter!
The above mentioned singing styles are the toughest of all types off singing! Michael Jackson, Enrique, Akon they will become speechless if they listen or try to sing this types of singing style...
But It was proved that Indians can easily sing the western music... It is not so tough but very easy!
Indian musicians can easily do what Uk:UsA:Canada :Phillipines @and the musicians of any other country can do.. But it would be difficult for them. To catch the Indian Music. So Indian Musicians deseves the first place.
India is the best. India make a music is heart touching music and I love Indian music and I love
I love both India and South Korea when it comes to Music.. Soulful
Norway makes really great music. Its musicians are really talented and not to mention their lovely accent makes their songs even more pleasant to hear.
Country very known for black metal.
Germany is ranked 17th?
Jesus guys, what would be music without Beethoven, Haydn, Mendlesohn, Schubert, Bach and many others? I accept the UK and US they had and have a lot of impressive musicians, but the Phillipines? Are you kidding me?
India and Philippines are just higher because of the bots, other than that most of their music is terrible, but Germany has great music Rammstein is one of my favorite band.
Rammstein, Helloween, Blind Guardian, Edguy, Doro, just to name a few.
Such a small place with so many wonderful bands and singers! I believe that the ratio it's the best among all countries.
Flogging Molly are one of Ireland's many Celt acts.

Music is to be learnt from Pakistan but their musicians own the talent
Sorry to burst your bubble but this so-called country didn't exist more than 70 years ago so forget "2000 years", essentially everything Israel has is slyly claimed from what is actually Palestinian and Arab culture and always will be. Claim all you want, it doesn't make it Israel. But Israel can take liberty of their baby-murdering culture, that's all theirs.
Israel combines Music and Culture from modern day music with music that's more than 2000 years old! Furthermore, many Israeli songs of the 1900s combine the history, emotions, and pleas for peace in the Middle East and really depict the struggles and lifestyles of the formation of Israel.
