While I'm at it, a pop group from a non-English-speaking country staying so popular for so long is itself quite an accomplishment; not one group on the charts today will be able to claim relevance in 30 years. Wonder how absurd a price tag would come of a one-off performance similar to Zeppelin's O2 performance in 2007 (Trivia: Led Zeppelin's last studio album, 1979's In Through The Out Door, was recorded at ABBA's Polar Studios. Just thought I'd throw that in there since I'm a monster Zep fan)
Quite a bit of music from indie artists is far more interesting than the vast majority of what gets airplay on the major FM station.
