Japan should stop using foreign songs. Creator's intent my arse. Foreign groups just taking advantage. Next thing we know, it'd be Britney Spears.

BBAMAJAM - Sensei Says - FUNiCon 3.0 (Live Blog)
Twitter / FUNimation:
Ah, that's too bad... With words by German school teacher Hans Leip and music by German composer Norbert Schultze and popularized by German singer Lale Andersen, "Lili Marleen" became popular with both German and Allied troops during World War II. This sad song about parted lovers during wartime struck a common chord with soldiers on both sides of the war... Which makes its omission from the North American Region 1 DVD release of Strike Witches all the more unfortunate... One can listen to the insert song and full song versions of "Lili Marleen" sung in Japanese by Rie Tanaka aka Minna Dietlinde Wilcke, as well as in German, English, Italian and a variety of other languages by Lale Andersen, Marlene Dietrich, et al. Just google it. |

I just watched the first 2 episodes streaming on Funi's site, and I didn't hear the Oasis song. They better have not gone through the trouble of getting that opening just to cram it into the extras section, if they really even got it at all...

Hah, you're right. They play some other song instead of "Falling Down".
It would be pretty funny if FUNi announced they could get the song and not even have it playing during the intro. |

according to animenewsnetwork.com/convention/2010/funimation-industry-panel
I guess they started streaming before this was all finalized. I wonder if they'll update the first episode with the Oasis OP later. |

Or maybe they're only allowed to use it on the DVDs/BDs. That whole situation is whacky, so I wouldn't doubt it.

I hope so, if not, I will wait for a later release of the series. |

I'm going to guess that Funimation only has the rights to include it with the first episode on DVD. If you want to hear it, you need to pay for it. If the rights holders are this concerned about including it on the DVDs, they sure as hell aren't going to be happy about streaming it to millions of people for free.
