Ireland #2 Good Country

#144
Ireland has been ranked number two on the Good Country index, which collates what a country contributes to global society and what it takes away relative to its size.

The data plots the most played Christmas song (Santa Claus is Coming to Town - all versions), most played specific version (Bing Cosby's White Christmas) and most played performers (Bublé) among other interested facts like plays per time of day and song versions by play count.
