Who wants some GALLIC BROODING, the Balkans' most aggressively pop nation of the 00s, and WHATEVER IRELAND IS this decade? YES! YOU do! Votes by PM to me by Sunday 31 October 2pm (GMT)!
France
The French built themselves a nifty little brand of rousing power ballads over the first half of the decade, but after it started running into difficulties realised around the middle of the decade that they had to switch things up. Alas, pretty much everything else they tried ended up doing just as badly. A return to core brand values at the end of the decade restored national pride a little, and notched up a decent little score of 3 out of 10 for top tens over the 00s.
2000: Sofia Mestari - On aura le ciel
2001: Natasha St-Pier - Je n'ai que mon âme
2002: Sandrine François - Il faut du temps
2003: Louisa Baïleche - Monts et merveilles
2004: Jonatan Cerrada - À chaque pas
2005: Ortal - Chacun pense à soi
2006: Virginie Pouchain - Il était temps
2007: Les Fatals Picards - L'amour à la française
2008: Sébastien Tellier - Divine
2009: Patricia Kaas - Et s'il fallait le faire
