It wasn't just the banks of lasers spraying the audience or cool orb-shaped video screens or super-clever video effects that had the requisite rock attitude.

Experts refer to this phenomenon as "Stuck Song Syndrome" and the songs themselves are called "earworms," because like some musical parasite they burrow into your brain while you are driving or sleeping and force you to repeatedly sing One Tin Soldier (sample lyric: "Listen children, to a story/that was written long ago/'Bout a kingdom on a mountain/And the valley-folk below").

It's the musical equivalent of how you represent a country," he says, "visually with a flag, audibly with an anthem.
