Ramblings, and advice needed

Clearly someone has told Franz of my Doctor Who/Watcher love; at the last gig Bob turned up in a pin-striped suit. Coincidence, I think not. *happy sigh*

eloise_bright keeps trying to suck me into SN by waving various scenes between the Winchesters (from eps I haven't yet seen) and pretty pics (which water or not haven't a patch on Franz on a good day) under my nose. But she did make me waver with her latest fic offering. Lovely case of hinting without being explicit when it comes to family ties. Nothing like a good dose of brother angst and denial to pep you up for the day.

Anyway, moving on. I need music advice. We're buying tracks for family over in South America. The songs/bands that have made it huge over there so far are:
The Beatles
Queen.
U2 - With or Without You
Guns 'n Roses - Sweet Child of Mine/Michelle
Avril Lavigne.
Coldplay - in general, but Yellow especially.
Robbie Williams - Angels and everything else.
James Blunt - Beautiful.
Getting an idea of the trend here? Right. So what other bands is it likely they'd enjoy? Keane? Embrace? Snow Patrol? The Corrs? Mr Blobby?
