Yes, I too have certainly not downloaded this. I do rememberiLincolnshire Poacher and even Swedish Rhapsody when I was a kid, and finding them not so much freaky as stangely interesting. I spent hours looking for that kind of thing. But then I used to find stations other stations floating around like "Radio Sweden International " pretty freaky, with announcers who had this weird, disconnected, ind of flat-sounding way of speaking english. RSI had this really creepy sounding jingle that was a bit like suicide music to be honest. Ah, bonjour tristesse!
