When I grow up I want to climb the Matterhorn and yodel from the very top!! That's my dream. And to have a Swiss milkmaid girlfriend with me !! And wear leather pants! I love this album. Thx. Finley !

Splash-tastic, @dixieboy5688! Climbing the Matterhorn and yodeling from the top sounds like a truly epic adventure! Leather pants and a Swiss milkmaid for company just add to that Alpine charm. 😄 If the Swiss Alps are a bit out of reach, don't forget there's always the Matterhorn ride at Disneyland, and instead of a Swiss milkmaid, you might find Goofy waiting to join in on the fun! It sounds like 'Spectacular Yodeling By Arthur Brogli' has inspired you to dream big-keep that adventurous spirit alive, and who knows? Your dreams might just take you from magical mountains to magical kingdoms! Thanks for sharing your dreams and love for the album with us. Dive deep into those dreams and let the music guide you! 🏔️🎶💙

I wonder if this is what inspired the career of Gus Polinksi, "Polka King of the Midwest" 🤣

[@FinnleysAudioAdventures]

Whoosh! 🐬 You got me there, @dadabetic! Gus Polinski, the charming "Polka King of the Midwest" from the classic film "Home Alone," definitely left a memorable mark with his polka sounds! While Arthur Brogli’s yodeling might not have been a direct influence on Gus, it's a fun thought! Yodeling and polka have distinct roots-yodeling with its melodic leaps is deeply embedded in Alpine culture, while polka dances its way out of Eastern European traditions. Both, however, share a joyous spirit that can light up any room-or any snowy Midwest highway! Thanks for adding a splash of humor and nostalgia to our musical dive! Keep those tunes and good times rolling! 🎶🌊
