Works indexed as multinational

The following have been listed on multiple Works By Nationality indices. A brief description to helpfully inform the degree of priority. This list is by no means complete.

    Filipino Media 
There is no doubt that media produced in the Philippines, or otherwise by Filipino people qualify. However, unlike the other entries on Works By Nationality, it has a separate section of works by people in the diaspora, and the following are in that latter category.

Professional Wrestling

Western Animation

    Northern Ireland 
The following have been listed under both British Media and Irish Media. Perhaps there should be clarification as to whether the latter category is All-Ireland or refers to the Republic of Ireland.

Music

    Music 
  • America (On British Music and American Music because it was formed by American military brats in England. They recorded a lot of their music on that side of the pond but after the first album was based in California)
  • The Band (most of the band were Canadian and started their careers in Canada; also had American members and operated in Woodstock, New York)
  • Buffalo Springfield (around half the membership were Canadian, based in Los Angeles in its lifetime)
  • Derek and the Dominos (British and American members, based in America)
  • Fleetwood Mac (a British band with American members at its peak, and was based in Los Angeles around the time)
  • Mort Garson (Canadian, embarked on a music career throughout the United States)
  • Jimi Hendrix (unmistakably American, but his best known music is as the frontman of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, an English band. As such both are fitting with all output indexed in American and the Jimi Hendrix Experience under British)
  • Manfred Mann (an interesting case; the man himself did come from South Africa but the band was formed in London after he emigrated from the former. Both could work)
  • My Bloody Valentine (Irish band with British members, including the frontman)
  • The Police (English band with American drummer, so not so high-priority on American Media)
  • Pretenders (English band with American frontwoman, so not so high-priority on American Media)
  • Carlos Santana / Santana (the latter is clearly an American band; Carlos was born and raised in Mexico but made his career in America, and so fits better under both indexes than his band does)
  • System of a Down (listed under Armenian Media and American Music. The members are of Armenian descent and it plays a role in their music, but putting it in Armenian Media is a bit of a stretch)
  • The Traveling Wilburys (high-profile British and American members, based in America)

    Web Animation 

    Web Video 
  • Vinesauce (by virtue of the output of the personalities; can be kept for lack of a creation of pages for said persobalities (eg Vinny, Joel)

    Wrestling 
  • Captain Lou Albano (born to Italian-American parents in Rome, proudly wears his heritage)

    Music/Cloud Nine 1987

"I'll see you there on cloud nine!"

Cloud Nine is the eleventh album by English musician George Harrison, released on 2 November 1987 through Dark Horse Records. After being initially being frustrated with the changing trends in music and suspending recording in the early 80s, he had reemerged in the middle of the decade and approached Jeff Lynne - formerly of the Electric Light Orchestra - to record his first album in five years. The result was a commercial success, inspiring Harrison to create more music, then the following year forming The Traveling Wilburys with Lynne, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty. This was the final album released in his life, with his next and final album Brainwashed released a year after his death.

Cloud Nine is supported with "Got My Mind Set on You" (which hit #1 in the US and the UK), "When We Was Fab" and "This Is Love" as singles, and "Devil's Radio" and "Cloud 9" as promotional tracks.

  5. "Got My Mind Set on You" (3:57)

I got my tropes set on you:

  • Cover Version: "Got My Mind Set on You" is this to a 1962 Soul song by Rudy Clark for James Ray.
  • Special Guest:
    • On top of production work, Jeff Lynne provided much of the instrumentation.
    • Fellow ex-Beatle Ringo Starr played the drums on a few tracks, fittingly including "When We Was Fab".
    • Recurring guest guitarist Eric Clapton is also joined by Elton John on keyboards for "Cloud 9", "Devil's Radio" and "Wreck of the Hesperus". Clapton also played on "That's What It Takes".

    Music/Sweetheart Of The Rodeo 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sweetheartoftherodeo.jpg
"Callin' me home, hickory wind"

Sweetheart of the Rodeo is the sixth album by the American rock band The Byrds, released on August 30, 1968 through Columbia Records. It was the first album without any input from David Crosby, who had been fired midway through the recording of their prior album The Notorious Byrd Brothers. In his place was Gram Parsons, initially recruited to be a jazz pianist before eventually switching to rhythm guitar. The album was conceived to be a double album going over the themes of Americana and incorporating various genres, but along the way only the country music exploration remained, consisting of folk and country covers as well as Parsons' two original compositions.

At the time of release, the album did not perform well commercially among either pop or country audiences, both respectively apprehensive of their vision, and Parsons would leave the band alongside Chris Hillman to form The Flying Burrito Brothers. In spite of this failure, it is seen as a pivotal development in country rock, with several subsequent acts following in its steps.

Released with two singles, "You Ain't Going Nowhere" and "I Am a Pilgrim".
