Last week, I was notified by a friend that Dutch pop music encyclopedia Leo Blokhuis was interviewed from home in a Dutch TV news-program. Here's a screenshot from that interview:

Check the background :-)

I asked him if it's the 4LP edition or the 2CD/2Cassette edition, it's the 4LP one.

(BTW: he's the guy who made this video)

Not really a sighting, but I was listening to Holly Johnson being interviewed (around 1:06:00):

I always get a kick from brief JMJ sightings in videos where I didn't expect such a thing ;)

For example:

Apart from hearing Oxygene part 4 in the 2nd part of "AIDS: the untold stories", I was watching this trailer for a Dutch comedy show. The music in the background sounds a bit like a slowed down version of Velvet Road:

Somewhat rare to find JMJ mentions from American YT videos, but it's a good'n ;)

Not a sighting, but more a hearing: I went to a movie yesterday "Vincent Doit Mourir" (Vincent Must Die), a very entertaining movie by the way. Anyway, in the movie Vincent, the main character, travels by car listening to the news on the radio. And of course, you can hear the JMJ Radiophonie music in the background :-) My girlfriend recognized the music because I use it as the ringtone for my phone.

Bolis Pupul (the son of Kamagurka!) is fantasizing about JMJ:

Part 3 of the Adam Curtis documentary "Russia 1985 -1999" contains an incidental clip of JMJ's music.

Between 27'17" to 27'34 they show a volcano museum in the Kamchatka Peninsula, 6,250 kms from Moscow. Chronologie Part 6 is playing in the background in the volcano museum. This episode is all about the events of 1991 so I assume this footage is from 1993+ and been used in the 'wrong' episode as it were.

All episodes are currently on BBC iPlayer but I suspect they are georestricted.
