I think the reason that music public in the States does, now mind you
this is a generality, go for the Heavies they generally do have a taste
for "different music". Yes BNH had some exposure in the past and
Jamiroquai has some fame now (I believe it will be short lived). But
they will not reach the fame of Garth Brooks.
