And in concert, as I found out last Thursday night when he played Boston.
Interestingly, the ABBA song was the only tune the kind-of-stuffy crowd (my
daughters were the only ones there under 40, easy) didn't respond
particularly well to. Tho they applauded his singing on Prince's "Kiss,"
which was, to be charitable, extremely white. Great concert otherwise.
