Who knew? Apparently, Chris de Burgh, the uber-crooner responsible for "Lady In Red", and, er, other soft-rock ballads in the 1980s, is a big deal in Iran. So much so that's he's set to perform there, despite the Iranian government not allowing the broadcast of much Western music. An aging rocker cashing in or an example of the West's ever-shrewd soft power?
