...Grammys earlier this year proved a breakthrough as well. He had done the impossible: he had sung about soccer in Spanish and got Americans to care. What could be harder? A French-language ode to cricket? At the Grammys, Beck stood and clapped. Madonna signed on for a duet. Martin's stateside career was launched.

...chief Mottola sits in the control booth, listening, looking, betting on a hit.
