I seem to recall the song being illegal to play in Sweden as it was used primarily when people were killing themselves.
I watched the TV show twice. In the first one, one of the patients died and everyone engaged in a cry-fest.
In another episode, a general died and they had a ball stuffing his body here and there, slapstick-style. The blatant hypocrisy was amazing to behold. That was it for me.
I liked Blue Oyster Cult, but hate the way they lied about “Don’t Fear the Reaper” (the cowbell song). That song is absolutely, positively about someone trying with their entire soul to talk the listener into committing suicide. Take Tipper Gore’s stupid warning label about mature content and quit lying to Congress.
