STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) — Madonna had considered calling off Saturday’s concert in Stockholm out of respect for the victims of the Paris terrorist attacks on Friday. She told the audience, “Why am I up here dancing and having fun when people are crying over the loss of their loved ones?” She says all the people killed had gone out intending to have fun that night. She decided the show must go on because she won’t let the terrorists stop her and her fans from “enjoying freedom.” Madonna asked the crowd to say a prayer for the victims and said, “Only love will change the world.” She resumed the show with “Like A Prayer.”
