The British equivalent of Creedence clearwater revival is definitely Stereophonics. Of that there is no doubt.

What about Badly drawn boy for Bruce Springsteen?

The prodigy have no U.S. comparison to my mind. Not that I think they are that special, I just don't think the yanks have ever got close to understanding the originals.
