So Hikaru Utada comes to mind, uh, maybe a couple others.
Tobias BiekerHOST
Um, was, were they not seen as signs of like, oh, maybe there's a market? You, you explain how they saw no, we have the biggest market, why even bother? But when organically some of these songs get picked up overseas and you see that interest, um, in, in, in, in, in the US, in Europe and such, does it not make some people wanna try more to, to develop some artists, uh, or to work with some artists for an international market?
Alex KarlssonGUEST
Absolutely.
