I love that I keep seeing more and more posts about Was ist dein Lieblingsfach but I want you to know that the rest of this godawful show that is Hallo aus Berlin is at least as entertaining:

“Am Tag als Conny Kramer starb” by Juliane Werding
This German cover of the Joan Baez song “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” was written by the 15 year old Werding in the 70s as drug use, and in turn drug-related deaths, began to skyrocket in Germany. When her friend, known only as Peter, became the first person to die from drug use in Essen, she composed this song.
The song became a number one hit in Germany and remained in the top ten for 14 weeks. The song also launched Werding’s singing career.
Man is not made for resting.
