Especially when the singer in question was a victim of a massacre.

That person should be deeply ashamed of themselves.

Videos from the audience show otherwise fortunately

Because this sub forum is for serious debates AND for news. It’s not just serious debates.

Although now it could be argued we’re having a debate about it.

They've been in for DECADES.

Murder on the dance floor?

Not that one It's funny, normally the more "mainstream" sound, if that gets it across, we don't typically get from outside the US. If we get a European-only artist, sometimes it's through a niche style we hear their music for the first time, but a one off. I would've heard of her more through Dance channels/playlists in the past. Those genres tend to be more multicultural. That said...

Sophie Ellis-Bextor relishes 'extraordinary' success in the US
https://www.femalefirst.co.uk/music/...s-1392475.html

The 44-year-old singer has seen her 2001 hit single, 'Murder On The Dancefloor', climb up the charts in recent weeks, after it featured in the psychological thriller film 'Saltburn', and Sophie has been wowed by her unlikely success in the US.

She told NME: "That’s what’s been quite extraordinary. To them it’s a new song, and that’s bonkers.

"It didn’t do anything there the first time around, and I’m fine with that. If I’ve learned anything along the way it’s that you’ve got to go where the momentum is."

This is why I go more international with my tastes, I think. We live in a bubble. The Eurovision week introduced me to some new acts/styles of current music, which I appreciate.

It's strange, even regionally music can trend very differently in the US. For example, lots of Latin-style pop and more dance music in the Southern parts of the US. Oh and lots more R&B/Hip hop and generally our urban music is much more energetic. But there's also pop-ish/rock songs I'm very familiar with from my childhood that my husband has never heard about. He's from the Northeast.

The Homos for Hamas Brigade are usually naive rather than malicious tbh.
