[NEWS] Big Bang & 2NE1's "Lollipop" #7 on "The 10 Biggest Num 1 singles you’ve never heard of"! (120406)

| Friday, April 6
Hello and welcome to a brand new spin-off from the commercially ignored and critically underrated DiS Does Pop. In the innovatively-titled DiS Does International Pop column we’ll be cocking our ear for a Top 40 smash abroad and shining a light on the biggest hits from foreign lands.

Want a sarcastic view of the Eurovision Song Contest that isn’t written by a Guardian staff writer? Fancy dipping your toes into the hyperactive world of J-Pop? Got a burning desire to discover Azerbaijan's answer to Jedward? We’ll be answering most, if not all, of these questions in the months ahead.
We begin the column with a list of the biggest singles you’ve never heard of. Some are good. Some are excruciatingly bad. One of them is by Shakira.
  1. B’z - Taiyo no Komachi Angel
  2. Fun - We Are Young
  3. Shakira - La Tortura
  4. Marlon Roudette - New Age
  5. Celine Dion - Pour que tu m'aimes encore
  6. Tino Rossi - Petit Papa Noël
  7. Big Bang & 2NE1 - Lollipop
  8. Jedward - Bad Behaviour
  9. Kent - Max 500
  10. Chris Rene - Young Homie
While K-pop is a relatively new phenomenon, its popularity is booming in both South Korea and Europe.

Mark Ronson and Katy B’s Olympics collaboration for Coca Cola has a lot to live up to. Read full article here
