	I think I found a Wikipedia page for British songs that topped the US 
charts. They used to be quite common, but began petering out in the 
90's. Finally, there was an eight year period before the next one.

	Are the cultures diverging? British music becoming crappier? US 
becoming more insular? All of the above?
