[edit] Oh Good Grief

The famous theme from the third movement appeared in the film Aimez vous Brahms? by Anatole Litvak, the BBC documentary The Century of the Self by Adam Curtis. The melody appears in several works of popular music, including the songs "Baby alone in Babylone"' by Serge Gainsbourg, "Love of My Life" on Carlos Santana's album Supernatural, and in the final instrumental track of the album A Glorious Lethal Euphoria by the surf-rock band The Mermen.

What, exactly does any of this have to do with Brahms, or this symphony? This is inane trivia and much of it is self promotion by the "artists" concerned, or their representatives.

Typical wikiality. Not fit for a real encyclopedia though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.136.48.174 (talk) 18:18, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
