"What's in the bag?"

The round of 16 starts today, and at this point we are just about forced to start posting music from countries we've done before. I offer you another soundtrack today, this time the soundtrack for the 1998 German film Lola rennt, released in the USA as Run Lola Run. I think this is a fine choice to represent Germany in the Germany-Sweden match tomorrow, especially because the introduction features the famous quote from former German national team coach Sepp Herberger, "Der Ball ist rund, und das Spiel dauert neunzig Minuten. So viel ist schon mal klar. Alles andere ist Theorie."

Lola rennt is a fun film, basically a 80 minute music video. It is a pounding, pulsing rollercoaster of a film. The music in the film has been described as "techno" by some, but I think that does it a disservice. Quite a bit of it is intended to get your adreneline flowing, but there are slow, easy numbers with nice vocals. The one problem I have with the soundtrack CD is that, in the interest of filling out an full-length CD, several of the tracks are remixes. This bugs me because a) I've already heard those songs, and b) the remixes do sound kind of techno (not that that's necessarily a bad thing.) Actually, I have another problem with the soundtrack. The music is in the wrong order, not the order it appears in the film. The introduction (which features the Sepp Herberger quote) is track 10 for Pete's sake.

In spite of those flaws, I do enjoy listening to this CD, and I think you will too. It helps to have seen the film, but even if you haven't, you might recognize some of the music from a tampon commercial.

Escape Goat informs me that I should really predict a winner in today's match. Under pressure, I feel my prediction will be too cautious, but I say the final score will be
Germany = 1 googol : Sweden < 0.000001

Today's post comes in two sizes. You can download the version ripped at a bitrate of 192, but it's more than 100 Mb, so you must download it in two parts. Alternatively, you can have a version ripped at a bitrate of 160 in a single download. In either case, the password is
Ball ist rund

I'm not sure if you're the same guy, but I will assume you are.
Thanks, It's a great Movie and a great soundtrack. Come back often.

I just dl the 192 kbps (which I recommend over the 160) and had no problem extracting it using, "Ball ist rund" as the Pw. So try again. It should work just dandy.

Escape goat:

Excuse my english.
I am the same guy from both previous posts.
Here in Brazil some guys are trying the same password.
I will check with others, but absolutelly doesn´t work to me.
I´ve tried alternatives like capitalize, underline, etc.....and none.
Anyway I can see both kinds of files were downloaded appropriately (80 to 100 megas).

Anyway, thanks for the chance.

I recomend this Brazilian blog:

I just don't know what to tell you.
I was able to dl
192:
Part 1: http://rapidshare.de/files/23946638/Lola1.rar.html
Part 2: http://rapidshare.de/files/23947734/Lola2.rar.html

and extract them using,
Ball ist rund

Perhaps the program you are using to extract the rar doesn't like spaces in the password?

If you still can't get it I'll try to re-up it using new pass.

I know of http://lagrimapsicodelica.blogspot.com/ it's really good.

Escape goat, I have no idea but it seems it works at some computers and doens´t at other ones.

I would be very pleased if you could upload without password or just change the password.
Only if you have time.

I hear you.
I'll re-up it later today.
Keep in mind it will be the 192 kpbs version so it will be in 2 parts.

I also want to let you know that you don't need to worry about your English here. Say whatever you want.
Your comments are always welcome.

So check back later I'll post the links right here in the comments.

Peace.
