Subject: 3SAT epilogue: Bio's Bahnhof
For the linguistic talents:
Kate on Bios Bahnhof
a translation of the German conversation:
B: Kate! Hallo!
Kate you are great!
It's even a rhyme:
Kate you are great!
(To a woman in the audience:) Mylady, you helped me out a little
while ago, can you help me once again?
I have no flowers, maybe you
can give me...
Yes, that's great. So. You're not only a great
music-stand, but also an excellent flowergirl (Rosenfrau). Kate...
K:
Thank you.. very much, thank you.
B: Thank YOU!
Ladies and
gentlemen, isn't she a talent? And in 10 years, maybe in 5, maybe already in 2,
she will perform in New York, in the Carnegie-Hall, in the Madison Square
Garden. 15.000 people will go mad. And then she is going to say: Pssst! All
people will calm down. Do not forget: My very beginning was in the "Depot
der Koeln-Frechen-Benzelrather Eisenbahn"<a disused railway
station/deposit>
(applause)
B: The poor didn't get anything.
(to Kate, now really in English!:) When you will be very big, and I know you will, you will apear in a big hall and you will say: Never forget: My begin was in the Depot...
Can you say that?
K: Ooooh, God, say it...
B: (repeating the words)
K: (rolling her eyes) <<<<I LOVE that!>>>>
Koeln-Frechen-Eichenberger...
B: Do you know any word in german?
K: Nein!
B: Nein, - you should learn "Ja", that's better.
Thank you very much.
END
IMHO Alfred Biolek is a very nice guy. He has still several shows on German TV. We all have to acknowledge his far-sight and this very early realization of Kate's genius. Thank YOU, Alfred!
