You can find this song by Carlo Buti on YouTube." Reginella Campiagnola". In America it was known as The Woodpecker song. Another big hit for Carlo was La Piccinnia, in America called The FerryBoat Seranade. Also on YouTube. I have the cd where these songs both are, called "Bella Ragazza"
I think this may have been the Will Glahe' Orchestra recording, released as Glahe' Musette Orchestra on the International series of American ( RCA) Victor.
Don't most countries, or cultures, have their own version of a gemuetlichkeit? Here in the US, nowadays, they don't even bother with the "sweet and enticing."
Rare version, thank you!, and very interesting explanation of the historical framework. One could add that it was a huge success in Italy thanks to the appeal of the music, but also of the lyrics and the voice of the great Carlo Buti (on YT, the year is 1939). The American versions are also nice, e.g. by Glenn Miller, but the charming Reginella is missing and the picks of the woodpecker do not sound as the trot of Butis horse. Good trot here!
Thank you for your very useful comment! I had the name of Carlo Buti in the scrap version of my note and now I see what a shame it had disappeared. Carlo Buti was a great singer and I only wish I had his original recording of "Reginella" in my collection to upload it here some day. I agree, that changing the lovely trot of a little donkey into the sound of a woodpecker was not the most fortunate idea of Glenn Miller's.
Indeed you are right, it was not a horse but a little donkey, the asinello of Carlo Buti. In this period I am variously involved in animal substitution, see the cock and the chicken in Pippo non lo sa by Kramer, another great Italian song, posted in YT by Livschakoff .. :- )
Drag Queen, Fashion for the contemporary SS/Gestapo/GoodGerman...
I don't mean that in a bad way its just the type of society that they had...
For SS and Gestapo if you could get a girl/Women from a fallen or type 3 camp you would get high-heels and stockings and "Time" in the Brothels...
Which is bizarre...

promoting hate crimes & crimes against humanity through glamorizing 'nazi chic' is more than appalling or even more than disgusting.

The familiar sweet and enticing tune. It goes so well with the elegant and appealing fashion. It is all part of Nazi Germany's gemuetlichkeit!

New to me and very interesting. Sounds like donkey-rhythms to me, but I'm a city person...

Seems like ladies' fashions got stuck at 1933 once Uncle Adolf's bully-boys got into power.
