Seconds later, the singer-songwriter reiterated to the Stadion Letzigrund staff, “Help back there please.”

“I’m looking out at this crowd tonight and you’ve decided to come out here in the heat, in the blazing sun and you’re still dancing like crazy,” she said. “Immediate bonus points right off the bat.”
