@Miranda9VM this is probably the most heartbreaking comment on here; i'm austrian-born as well, working & living in the US for a couple of years now; our family histories are full of stories like your grandfather's, we're connected to our country for life, no matter how far we're away. i first watched "the sound of music" over here, because nobody back home knows it, & at this song i just burst out in tears; I know exactly what your grandpa felt. I hope you're doing well, God bless

My grandmother had a little music box that would play this song. It is the only memory left that I have of her. Beautiful.

My grandfather used to sing this song to me a lot, & since I’m part Austrian it meant a lot to him. During WWII he shot a Nazi who demanded he fight for Hitler, & was sent to a concentration camp. He said that when he grew up in the Austrian mountains, they were beautiful, with fields of edelweiss’s right outside his door, & as long as he sang the song he always remembered home. He said that if I ever felt sad or lost , i should just sing this song...and think of home too. But he recently died
