ITALY ROCKS !!

For the first time, Italy has leaped ahead of the UK and Sweden as our #1 country in Europe and our #3 country worldwide. The UK, Sweden and France are battling in the #4, #5 and #6 spots. There is only a 21 "hit" differential between them. In cities worldwide, Milan - Italy also leads London - England by 33 "hits". Rome - Italy is also in our Top 25. Go Italy!!
