I'd love the track Neukoln to be about Neukolln, since I live here! But I don't think it is -- if you could locate that interview reference I'd be very interested.

When Philip Glass came to do his Heroes Symphony (http://www.amazon.com/Bowie-Meet-Glass-Heroes-Symphonies/dp/B0000AGWOC), the title was split into two words, becoming Neu Koln, which seems to suggest that it was a deliberate reference to the band Neu, who were from Koln. And we learn here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_(David_Bowie_song)) that the title of the album came from a 1975 track by Neu called Hero.
