Someone desperately wanted to make a negative headline...

So what? I don't know the artist, her fans probably where there to hear that song, terrorists don't deserve to keep influencing the future happiness of people with their actions...

Yeah, there's no controversy or anything even oniony here.

It's her most famous song. It would be way more surprising if she didn't sing it.

its like they think that all of the people directly traumatized by the incident were there on the dance floor lmao

I don't think it was meant to paint anyone in a negative light. The article is written very neutrally and quotes the artist addressing the irony.

Yeah I did not receive it in a negative way for the artist but in a way that highlights the absurdity of the situation.

Banging song tbh, gotta give it a pass based on that alone.

Great boost from the movie at least. Havn't heard it in ages, and then that Saltburn movie drops and the song is fucking everywhere

She should’ve sung “I Need More Allowance” or even “ Banging on a Trash Can”.

Thank goodness no one has found a place that Electric Six can have a controversy about performing “Nuclear War (On the Dance Floor).”

I think she'd have gotten away with it had it also been 70 years between the tragedy and the performance, though...

I was more worried when I misread it as "Blood on the Dancefloor" (the band) which I thought would be a weird they are performing crunkcore to the mainstream.

All kinds of bands perform at the Bataclan, last show I've seen there was Lorna Shore, and the previous one was Alcest.

Yes, the Bataclan hosts A-list band like Metallica, and also much more confidential ones.
