And if you aren't that, you can tell it at home. "Big in Japan" meant so much as if you are nothing in your environs, you can be big somewhere else. I bought the album of a British band named Big In Japan. There was a fellow, who sold stuff of independent bands from US and UK. There was the rumor he would be in Berlin for withdrawal treatment in that period. In 1977 I was quite regular in a club in Kreuzberg, the SO36. That's why this place became a venue of the song. Till nowadays Berlin station Zoo is an important meeting place for junkies. They both imagine how great it would be to love without the drug: no steal, no clients, no ice age in the pupil, real emotions, true worlds. 'Big In Japan' tells about a couple of lovers trying to get off Heroin. Bernhard recognized the quality of the song and Andy the ability of its marketing.
In a 1998 interview with the German online magazine Re.flexion, Alphaville lead signer Marian Gold explained: "I must admit the only ones who understood the meaning of the song correctly were Bernhard (Lloyd) and our then publisher Andy Budde. And Holly Johnson, the singer of the band, was the singer of this band "Big in Japan," who I stole the line some years ago, before he came to Frankie Goes To Hollywood." It was strange: as we released the song later, Frankie Goes To Hollywood was the #1 in the charts with "Relax" and we needed some weeks to edge them out. So I used it for the refrain of the song. Anyway that statement fit perfectly to the story of the couple of lovers.
