Which British music export best represents the UK abroad, according to your ears?
From cheeky pop bangers to moody indie anthems, Britain has flooded the world's playlists for decades. Time to rank the acts that basically function as unofficial cultural ambassadors (sorry, Foreign Office).
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
The Rolling Stones
Somehow older than most cathedrals yet louder than a stag do in Prague. Their swagger practically invented the idea of the British rock band abroad.
B
Adele
She single-handedly kept tissue companies profitable throughout the 2010s. Every breakup album since owes her royalties, morally speaking.
C
Arctic Monkeys
From sweaty indie discos to Glastonbury headliners with slicked-back hair and a lounge-lizard drawl. Alex Turner truly did that.
D
Spice Girls
Arguably did more soft-power diplomacy than the entire Foreign Office in 1997. Wannabe is still played at every wedding, whether you like it or not.
E
Ed Sheeran
Cannot be stopped, cannot be reasoned with, will appear on every radio station simultaneously. Statistically, you've hummed one of his songs this week.
