Americans: Do you like British artists and their music? please read the list inside :)?

Question by Tas: Americans: Do you like British artists and their music? please read the list inside :)?
Recently a lot of British artists have tried to change themselves a bit and try to get known in America.
The recent one that i’ve heard of are N-Dubz, they talked a bit about having to change their lyrics a bit i think as they said American people would not understand the British slang in them or something like that (i don’t see why they had to do that as we listen to American bands a lot and we have no trouble understanding them) and i recently read in a magazine that Tulisa who’s the girl in the group was told to change her hair colour from blonde to brown, i have not a clue why, i think she looks a better as a blonde, any ideas why she was told to do it?
Another is Cheryl Cole (though she might go back to her maiden name Tweedy after her football husband was thought of slept with other women) Simon Cowell has apparently had offered Cheryl a chance to be a judge on the American version of the X-Factor and that would help promote her music over there too.
Also Leona Lewis has been snatched up by a American recording company 🙁 which i’m a bit sad about as she won OUR X-Factor and she’s very nice, but she does like spend quite a lot of time back in London and stay in her country 🙂
Alexandra Burke has also made her music to appeal more to the American public.

I’m just very curious what Americans think of our bands as we always hear American bands on the radio etc. and as a lot of our bands are trying to get known in the States, do you think any of them would be successful over there??
Here’s a some British artists and some of their old and recent music, that i know of anyway, sorry if i’ve missed any major ones, i would of added links to all of them but Yahoo Answers would not allow me to so i only kept a few so PLEASE type the name in YouTube.

Sugababes. None of the members are original hehe, i’ve never seen a band change so much.

This song is soooo American lol:

N-Dubz. They are a load of chavs but i think they are good. Dappy and Tulisa are cousins.

Cheryl Cole. She has a northern English accent-she grew up in Newcastle. She has gone solo from Girls Aloud but the group is still together.. for now i think.

Mika. I don’t know much about him but his music seem nice.

The Saturdays. They have sort of replaced Girls Aloud as the new girl band, they are one of my favourite bands. Oh, and Una with the light brown hair is not British but Irish.

Leona Lewis. She my favourite artist. She won the X-Factor in 2006 and , wow can’t believe it was that long ago. in 2007 Leona signed a £5 million ($ 9.7 million) five-album contract in the United States with Clive Davis’s record label, J Records. NOOO Leona come back to us lol.
I love this one 🙂

JLS. (fan scream) oh god these guys are sooo hot lol. I luv Marvin <3. They came as runners up in the X-Factor in 2008 but i'm sure they didn't mind that, they are now the newest boyband that melt all girl's hearts lol. I just got distracted watching them in the first video below i almost forgot to add the URL lol. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJJEZdYQR_s urgh i'm not too sure about the video for this song, they are really trying to appeal to American people here, but oh well 🙂 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuklSZVvpzc Take That. I don't know much about them but i like a couple of their songs. Kaiser Chiefs. I don't know much about them but i like some of their songs and they seem good 🙂 Lily Allen. I really like her music. She has made quite a few songs recently but i read in a mag she's announced she is going to stop for now and settle down i think :S and get married by what i can remember from the mag. She often uses a lot fo swear words in her songs more then most other artists. One of her older songs and one of my favourites >:):

Amy McDonald. I love her voice and style, she’s Scottish and has very recently release another album.
Her newest song:

Pixie Lott. I like her music.

Little Boots. Her music is cool 🙂

Girl’s Can’t Catch. This band is very new. I’m not too sure about their band name but they have nice music.

Daisy Dares You. She is 16 years old and is very new. I quite like her music.

Robbie William. Urgh i can’t really stand him lol he always seem to try too hard and my mum don’t like him because his videos use to a bit sexist and he always seemed to take his clothes off and have sexy women around him etc. the first video is a good example. He has recently made some new songs which are better i guess.

Chipmunk. I really don’t like his type of music but here he is anyway.

Diana Vickers. Diana went out of the semi-final in the The X Factor in 200
