Love the shoes and the dress! But, am I off the mark in saying that I don't like that Birkin with the outfit? Maybe, if she was wearing turquoise jewelry??? Feel free to slap some sense in me.

I think it is so nice that a cartoon can connect people across borders and evoke fond childhood memories in us. Out of curiosity Mid-: was the song sung in German (can't imagine that)?

Thanks for the info, jula! I youtubed it yesterday and found out that the songs for the German and Japanese versions are totally different. It was/is a lovely cartoon nonetherless.

Megs, it's always nice to have something mysterious left about your hubby, isn't it?

Oh yes indeed, Karel Gott really left his mark; I'm pretty sure that still to this day every kid in Germany knows Biene Maja and the signature tune (for the non-Germans: the song was released in 1977). And I pity every child that has to grow up without Willy, he was my favorite....

I remember this cartoon but ofcourse not in German, it was translated into Arabic and I used to watch it as a kid too! I think it was called 'Zaina the Bee'

Sorry, again OT:

Karel Gott recorded a song with German rapper Bushido, "Für immer jung" using the melody of "Forever Young" by A-Ha. Still has that charming Czech accent.
