My mom didn't know, though she thought she may have heard it before, and she knows a lot about songs. It's probably a German song.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

I think it could be an old song. I will ask in Klickywelt (if it's a german song...).

It sounds more like dialing-sounds for a very long phonenumber...  ::)

...perhaps it is, because of the electronic sound.


In Klickywelt Meermaid (she is Bavarian) posted the (right) answer:

It is the
 »Kuckuckswalzer« (engl. »Cuckoo's waltz«)
of Emanuel Jonasson
of 1918 (a little too late for the 1900 theme).

[HERE you can HEAR the original]

That's a pretty little song. Nice to know the answer!

That's funny. :lol: Maybe there are time travelers in the Victorian theme.

I don't have it but my mom does and I know the song... this won't be helpful  ;) but....
Na NAH Na NAH na Naah na Na na na, Na NAH na NAH na Naah na Na na na,  :lol:
This got me laughing  ;D ;D ;D
Glad I now know it is the Cuckoo waltz though, because once I'd listened to the clip on Youtube (and followed along with the Na NAHs), it was one of those 'argh! I know this! I know this!' type tunes, without actually knowing the name :)

the christmas organ has 3 christmas songs that it cycles through so ... that isnt it  ;)
I figured it would play something Christmasy.


The Cuckoo's Waltz? Cool! Many thanks to Meermaid, and zugpferdchen for posting. I wonder if anyone sells music buttons with this song. It would solve the battery problem.
