First I want to say I too am very embarrassed to have been in Philadelphia with all the negativity directed at Chris and the band due to Isobel's illness...selfishness is the biggest pitfall of the popfan, and they really don't owe us anything as they've already given us so much, so just wait patiently for the next time they come around to unload your drooling adoration (you do remember those days, don't you, when you would've died for them??). We're talking about humans here who get ill like we do, not music-performing life-affirming robots (that's Kraftwerk, if there was any confusion, who probably *could* play if someone got sick). Secondly, and to the main point of my message. Tell me I'm not crazy, that at 2:16 of "You Made Me Forget My Dreams" the electric piano break does not sound *exactly* like the beginning of ABBA's "S.O.S."--it's freaky! Another ABBA-Scottish band connection: the beginning of the Cocteau Twins' "Blue Bell Knoll" sounds like the piano break in ABBA's "Money Money Money." Is there a conspiracy afoot? Discuss. Not that there's anything wrong with referring to ABBA, they are gods. And I'm not ashamed to say it.
