From Elsberry:

I`m embarrassed to admit it but I was just watching an awful TV-Talkshow (Bärbel Schäfer) about how fat people could dare to wear bikinis in the summertime - or something of the like - and as an intro-music for one of the guests they actually played "LAST NIGHT I DREAMT THAT SOMEBODY LOVED ME" by the Smiths. URGH!

Considering this was the first time I ever heard a Smiths Song on German Television I was shocked.

"Awful" German TV show? Imagine that! Their stories are old...but they go on.

Oh Nein!!!!! Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, wie du mit offenem Mund da gesessen hast!!! But don't you watch "Verbotene Liebe"??? When Southpaw Grammar came out, they used to play "Reader meets author" in this café "No limits"... They also play regulary Placebo, MSP etc., I always thought about writing to them and ask who's the responsible for the music in this soap, just to say Thank you!!!!

Oh..haha I've actually seen that show before on Satellite when I was browsing through the German channels to catch some porn lol..Barbel Schafer is basically a German clone of Sally Jessy Raphael - she totally rips off her look, same hair, right down to the red rimmed glasses!

"Last night.." seems to be quite popular at the moment. Last Friday its intro was used in French/German show "Tracks" on ARTE!

Well, the interesting thing is that I detected "Last night I dreamt..." was used as background-music in the political German talkshow "Sabine Christiansen" on Sunday, May 6th. The week before (the show is broadcasted once a week) they used "How soon is now".
I wonder who the hyper is.

Well, the only thing I can come up with is me hearing a Smiths song on the radio when I was in a shop... but then again I must say it was mere coincidence cuz I barely listen to radio, and barely happen to be in shops ;)
Anyway guess which song it was - foggeddit. Sorry, but "How Soon Is Now" is just so f***ing STANDARD!!!!!! :(
