Oh wow, that's a deep cut. I'm deeply impressed and amused. Almost to the point of yodeling ;)
(For those lucky enough not to be this old and/or German, there once were two sisters called "Gitti & Erika" who made some horrible, yet famous Schlager songs – folksy chansons. Including the title melody of the local dub of the "Heidi" anime, triggering basically every "80s/90s kid".)
- xdennis 4y agoIsn't Erika a nazi song about flowers, bees, and maidens?
- mhd 4y agoI think it's male name -> female name -> flower named after that -> song named after that. I honestly doubt that that's the first thing that comes to mind and thus would besmirch the good name of, erm, git. ;) (Not that I'm suggesting actually naming something after a boomer-level German in-joke in the first place.)
