this wobble anthem on a label (Wicky Lindows) hailed by Leaving Earth reminded me of this movie I once saw on TV -- can't remember the title (perhaps an East European cinema buff can identify it ) but some scenes from it have always stuck in my memory. Czech, possibly... made in the Nineties but set in the Fifties or early Sixties -- there's a school and this rebellious boy, who's into rock'n'roll and all things American, and at some point he manages to take over the school tannoy system, i think ... and declaims a bunch of insurrectionary nonsense, including the rallying cry "LONG LIVE THE IDIOT".
