When I was young, my uncle used to play this on the piano. I have not heard it in years.

HAHA :D, aber echt, ich woh ganz nah am Unterland,diese Bilder haben damit nix zu tun. Macht nix, ist schon cool so!

[ksm2008]

Hervorragend, dann sind wir uns ja einig. Als gebürtiger Heilbronner hätte ich halt ein paar passende Bilder vorgezogen, aber das ist natürlich überflüssiger Lokalpatriotismus :o).

beste Grüße,

KSM

I know were this song is about, the pictures I have chosen are only figurative.

[ksm2008]

Unfortunately, you're wrong, this song has nothing to do with the mountains or the alps. It is about the WÜRTTEMBERG region of the "UNTERLAND" (around HEILBRONN, in the lower NECKAR valley) and praises its virtues compared to the "OBERLAND" (You could say its the "hymn" of the Unterland).

The division of OBER- and UNTERLAND ist mainly not about the heighth but is a administrative measure of the old duchy of WÜRTTEMBERG (look on a map, there are no big mountains in Württemberg).
