Bono speaks
I didn't know that Bono of premier band U2 is also a fan of ABBA.
In a few sentences (plus his concert tribute), the eloquent lead singer sums up much of what this blog is about. Please see the embedded You Tube video below.
Well said. But be aware: C.M. Palm in his definitive ABBA biography "Bright Lights, Dark Shadows" has a different take on Bono's recorded appearance here. (Page 521 in that book.)
Another YT link to more from that U2 1992 Stockholm concert: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kT2WpKZCSmE
As a commenter on You Tube summed it up: "beautifully bizarre".
