Es gibt Situationen im Leben, denen man sich als Zuschauer nie ausgesetzt fühlen möchte: einen Film mit Veronica Ferres bis zum bitteren Ende sehen zu müssen, Angela Merkel mit tiefem Dekolleté bei den Wagner Festspielen oder Maria Furtwängler auf einer Theaterbühne. Und dann gibt es Momente, die einem das Blut in den Adern gefrieren lassen: Uwe Kröger 'singt' ein Lied der britischen Sängerin Adele.

Gleich zu Beginn des 2.Teils der 'größten Musical Hits' (da passt der zitierte Song aber auch sowas von rein).
