Did I give you enough time to think this one over?
And the answer is 'Mexico'

David Hasselhoff, while known for his appearances on the television shows Baywatch and Kitt in the 80's, his singing never was popular in the United States. In Germany however he had two hits.

While his star rose, fell and rose again in the US, Hasselhoff's popularity remained a little longer in Europe during the end of the 80s. Hasselhoff had one number-one hit in the German pop charts in 1989 ("Looking for Freedom"), which very much resonated with the fall of the Berlin Wall at that time, and two more top-ten hits in 1989 and 1993.(wikipedia)

Alizee has won over Mexico.
Yes, I know there are differences...but it is interesting how some artist just win over certain countries.
