There are few things quite as satisfying as a good comeback story. We all like to believe that we have it in us to change, that the stories of lives are not yet written, that we may come up with a new chapter that’s as good, or even better, than anything we’ve ever done. When a pop music favorite makes a comeback it’s especially satisfying to their original fan base because it underlines the enduring appeal of the artist – that the quality of their music is not bound to their original era of dominance.
