Acts from the UK and the US dominated the top half of the list, with acts from the European mainland only making up 24% of the total.

The only songs from the mainland in the top 20 were Russian duo Tatu's All the Things She Said at number 13 and Move Your Feet by the Danish group Junior Senior at number 20.
