Artists that were popular worldwide, but not in your country

Nice idea for a thread.   Here are a few that I can think of:

Weezer: For reasons why I don't understand, Weezer only has a niche' following here in Australia. "Beverly Hills" never charted here, and neither did their debut album (which contains their biggest hits, "Buddy Holly" and "Undone (The Sweater Song)". Their highest chart placement on the ARIA Singles Chart is just a pathetic #63, which was a feat achieved by "Undone (The Sweater Song)" back in 1994. 

I don't understand why they have struggled to achieve success down here, because they're not an unknown band. People know who they are. In fact, Triple M (a rock radio station) even plays "Buddy Holly" from time to time. I have even seen "Buddy Holly" and "Undone (The Sweater Song)" played on a music TV channel on the odd occasion. Australia embraced a lot of alternative-rock artists/bands during the '90s, so why have Weezer never really caught on among the Australian public? 

Cardi B:  Cardi B has struggled to develop a strong fan base in Australia. She has tasted some success, sure, but she isn't a household name or a staple on Top-40 radio. "Bodak Yellow" peaked at just #33 last year, which was her lowest chart placement out of all the anglosphere countries (Canada, US, UK, Australia & New Zealand). "I Like It" managed to reach a high of #14, but yet again, it was her lowest chart placement out of the anglosphere countries.

The rest of her singles have all failed to crack the Top-50. "Be Careful" peaked at just #65, her collaboration with Migos and Nicki Minaj ("Motorsport") topped out at #74, "Bartier Cardi" peaked at #77 and her most recent single ("Money") reached a measly peak of #65. Thank goodness the Australian public realise that she is a terrible artist.

Steps - Very big deal during the Y2K era worldwide, but not ONE hit in America.

Atomic Kitten - They showed up on a soundtrack or two, but never had a single American hit. Even “Whole Again” failed to chart here. Blame the dramatic failure of the Spice Girls’ Forever.

Jess Glynne - Why do Americans resist her so much? She’s one of the better pop artists currently working. Ugh.

Texas - They were only briefly a minor thing at the end of the ‘80s in America. Once they made a comeback in 1997 and dropped the last vestiges of their country influences, nobody from America was going to promote a Scottish band called Texas.

Kylie Minogue - She was a total soccer singer in the US except in 1988 and 2002. Her sales would rival Madonna had she not been so unpopular in America.

Robbie Williams - One of the biggest music superstars ever, and yet not a single top 40 hit in America.

Jamiroquai - Out here, they’re mostly just associated with the dance scene in Napoleon Dynamite.

East 17, Boyzone, Take That, Westlife, Blue, and JLS - For the most part, America HATES imported boybands.

Anastacia - Even though she’s from Chicago, it’s mostly just gay men who know her music.

Shakin’ Stevens - I don’t know how much people still remember this guy, but he was a huge hitmaker worldwide in the early 1980s...except in the US, where he had zero top 40 hits.

Many, many, many more to come later.
