Now I know what you're saying to yourselves. Any of you who've seen me before, are saying, "Yawn. This song was left in the setlist, did you hear this one?" And like, you know, nothing personal or anything, but it's a tough act to follow, and it's a tough act to follow with one you didn't write, you know? So, what's the deal with that? You save it up for last, you do your job, you punch the clock, you go home. It's an easy thing to figure out. And here you are, five years down the road, and the entire world has forgotten about the song that climbed to number one in 40 different countries. It was number one in England... It was number one in Belgium... The Blues Explosion was NOT number one in Australia. ACE OF BASE was number one in Australia. Oh yeah! You remember Ace of Base! They got so screwed by a record contract, people'll be talking about it in the industry for years to come. 'Cause they signed this thing, right? It said, "You will make for us, three records." Now, they were all friends at the time, and they enjoyed doing what they did, and in their home town of Gothenburg, they were saying to each other, "Three records?! Shoot! I'll go make thirty!" You know? So, "Gimme that paper! I will sign that paper!" And then, they made the record, those songs that had already been written back when they were teenagers, and they toured, oh yeah, yeah, they hit the road in a small, small vehicle. And they stayed on tour for seven consecutive months, give or take, give or take a couple of months. And they found when they got out of the car, they couldn't stand the sight of one another. So they told the record label, "You know, um, we appreciate it and everything, but, um, well... we've broken up." And the record label says, "Oh no you haven't." So their second album vanishes almost without a trace. Almost without a trace! And if it weren't for me, the entire world would forget about Ace of Base, and go about their business. But I like those people! I like Jenny! I like Joker! I like Linn! I like Buddha! Now, what's funny about this for me is, you know, we started doing this song when it was still on the charts. And we'd go to shows in Boston and New York, and people'd say, "Oh John, I don't-- I don't listen to the radio." And you'd say, "Well, you know, they play it on MTV every ten minutes." And they say, "Oh, no no, I don't-- you know, I don't have a lot of time, and besides, when I do, I don't watch the MTV," you know, guys? And I say to them, "Don't lie to me! Do not lie to me! You know this song! And you want to sing this song! Somewhere deep down within you, there's somebody who would have gone into dance clubs, but, like me, you knew you danced real poopy! And you didn't want strangers telling you! It was bad enough when your friends told you! So you didn't dance, and you didn't sing. Well, no one's gonna tell! And there's no film in that camera!" When I come to the second chorus, if there's a one of you who doesn't sing, I personally will open fire!
