Oh no, don´t give me that - David is not a big hit in scandinavia :)
Every one my age remember him from the early 80s series "Knight Rider",
but nowadays we´ve forgotten all about it - and we are to sophisticated to
watch Baywatch...

I hear David is a big hit up there in the north country.  Believe it or
not, in the US, most only know him for his role in babewatch.

I couldn´t agree more. My friends bug me all the time, telling me I´m
still
stuck in
5th grade, that´s when I first started preaching about the oil´s. That´s
12
years ago...

Today was the lowest, someone sent me http://www.davidhasselhoff.com
saying, this feels just as fresh as you still listening to Midnight
Oil...

Almost wish Midnight Oil would go mainstream... or maybe not.
