Japanese musicians are honored in the UK in the fields of classical, jazz, house and heavy metal music. Boris, Cornelius, Melt Banana and Shonen Knife have a cult following. It's sad that people don't value pop music, and it's sad that people won't listen to things in a foreign language. SR's music is perfectly accessible... *shrugs* Anyone who met and fell in love with SR without even a prior connection with Japan is impressive as far as I'm concerned.
