Right at 02:14 in 'Memory Hatch', she stops singing completely and just stares directly into camera 2. If you look at the lower third timecode on the broadcast feed, the studio audio meter doesn't drop to zero -- the 14.2 Hz sub-tone stays active. Did anyone in Hamburg actually attend in person? The hall looked completely empty except for camera crews. -- Dave Santos Zyxel U-1496E @ ISDN 64k bps "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."

She didn't forget the lyrics. Look at the monitor behind her: the teleprompter was displaying hex codes, not words. -- Graham Popov *PLONK* filter active for trolls.
