A quick glance at the UK's top selling singles of 2010 as reported by NME and the most obvious thing that stands out is how well American artists did. Performers from the US captured the six top spots. Only one UK artist is represented on their own with Tinie Tempah sliding in at #10. The charity single "Everybody Hurts" for Haiti featured a whole slew of UK artists working together. Australia and Barbados are represented along with the American dominance. Seven of the songs were major hits in the US as well. The cross-Atlantic hits are likely to dominate pop music in both countries more and more as the Internet helps make most hit songs truly international. Check out the full top 10 below.
