I moved to Germany in 1989 and rarely heard Alphaville

I assume you will hear AV more often on east german radio stations.

AV in Radio??? In CZ every day, but only songs Jerusalem, SLAM, BIJ, FY, DWM and Jet Set.. I want Iron John als song in Radio, or Ascension day, Sensations, AVOL... AV have very much good songs, what no playing in Radio.

It's funny. When I was going home by bus after my German lesson on Wednesday the driver was listening to the radio station where AV comes up once in a while. And "Forever Young" did come up. Today when I was going home by bus with the other driver he was listening to the other radio station. And this time "Big In Japan" came up. [smile2]

Very good busses they have there![approve]

You should have tried to go somewhere by one of those buses to see how good they are. [laugh]
I was just lucky. Lucky that the drivers were listening to these 2 stations that play AV sometimes. Lucky that I heard the songs. [smile2]

I don't take buses, only when my car is in the garage...

And to hear AV when I drive car I play a cd in my car-radio, so I can say I hear them everytime when I listen to the radio!!!

In our busses you usually don't hear music, probably it's even forbidden [yuck]

That's in the bus that goes 1 hour without stops. Express bus. So the drivers put some radio on for themselves. And the passengers sitting in the first rows can hear that....

@Justus: you don't know how lucky you are... if you knew what can be heard in Mexico City's public transport... [crazy]

...still, there are times when drivers tune an eighties-music station and there is BIJ or FY playing there [smile2]
