I just learned in the other thread about German music that Scorpions are German (I always assumed they were British or American). Is there any other artist you didn't know was European until very late
Despite the fact that you clearly mentioned music in your title, it took me longer than I'd like to admit to realize you weren't claiming that scorpions were indigenous to Germany
I mean their one song and one video that anyone knows are European as shit. I don't even know if I knew what Europe was yet and I knew they weren't from round these parts
Can't say about musicians, but I remember being surprised a lot when I was young. It's the actors that get me. First time I saw behinds the scenes footage of Black Hawk Down, "They're ALL British?!"

Alphaville, known for "Big in Japan" and "Forever Young," also hail from Germany.
Kraftwerk obviously too.
Well, that's another one I didn't know!
Sugarcubes
I prefer A-Ha
So do I.
My phone's autoincorrect, however....
Too bad there's no way to edit comments
But then none of this makes sense.
Oh, you scamp.
No, it would be even funnier

Ghost. Totally thought ghost was American until I got more into them/him.
I was surprised to find that Robert Palmer was British. I had him down as American.
There's an uncomfortable insinuation about the meaning of "European" lurking in this question.
