Like everyone else, I can barely take the waves of embarrassment that come with watching someone do something so badly.

I had a gig in Sweden. There were thousands of people there, and when I launched into 'I'm Yours,' they were all singing along. It was as if I was singing the Swedish national anthem. I was stunned.
