In Heidelberg (Germany) we visited Wolfgang Schrödl of the band Liquido, to talk about the great one-hit wonder 'Narcotic'. A reportage of Top 2000 a gogo from 2019.

It is such a lovely feeling to find out that the man behind one of your favorite songs is such a likeable and humble guy with a great sense of humor! Cheers, Wolfgang!

ik speel nog maar n jaar piano en ik zei tegen mijn leraar ik wil dit nummer kunnen spelen en 8 weken later had ik m door, ik was dol blij dat het lukte en nu tijdens elk feestje mag ik het begin op piano spelen en neemt de band het verder over krijg er nog altijd kippenvel van. Danke Wolfgang Schrödl

I looked this up because I heard a new song today, and they appear to use this riff, but faster. The song I heard today will not last like this one has. This song still rocks just as hard as ever.- I used to have Narcotic on rotation in the car for so long. glad to have the reminder, and will enjoy it again all over!

Due to random coincidence, speaking of censorship, a direct-opposite illustration is discussed here --> www.mediaite.com/tv/brian-williams-openly-blames-nbc-for-trump-the-apprentice-might-have-been-the-pilot-for-his-presidency/ Censorship is usually viewed negatively, but in terms of badness, it also gets strong competition from Marshall McLuhan's concept that "The Medium Is The Message" to a degree that is usually understated. (The article basically says that the TV series had accelerated the emergence of a Lowest Common Denominator type of medieval culture within the USA)
