Coffee addicts go a long way back.
Ton Koopman has been recording Bach cantatas, one of which is "The Coffee Cantata," written in the 1700s (on DVD).
The central character is a girl who can't live without coffee. Her father promises to get her a husband if she would drink wine. She makes the promise, but when she gets the husband, she renigs.
Very enjoyable.
"Schweigt stille, plaudet nicht (Kaffee Kantate)," English subtitles.
