Does anyone else get goosebumps watching the June 1985 Eidophor screen recording?

The band keeps playing the backing chords for almost 3 minutes while she doesn't move a single muscle.
Right at 02:14 in 'Memory Hatch', she stops singing completely and just stares directly into camera 2.

Did anyone in Hamburg actually attend in person? The hall looked completely empty except for camera crews.

I remember watching this on our family's Radiant TV console. The picture tube hummed whenever Nova hit high notes.

I was 14 when that aired in Germany. My dad thought the satellite link had frozen until the drummer started improvising.

Notice the date: June 8, 1985. That was exactly 14 months before the Meridian microwave link tests began at Ashford Poly.

In the Akasaka reel box recovered in Tokyo, there's a handwritten studio note: 'Do not rebroadcast Hamburg segment 09.'
