". . . oh no! They have pheasant feathers on their heads!"
"It's folkmusic? A brass band . . . and inexcusible embroidery . . ."
"Really inexcusable embroidery . . ."
"Cut-ogg vests with more inexcusable emroidery . . . that's cutwork on those sleeves . . ."
"and they're singing about Moravian girls . . ."

"is it all like that? Polkas. Dogdamnit."

And then the cat bit me on the chin.

It's here, but if you can't enjoy polka-playing brass bands with inexcusable emroidery and pheasant feathers on their heads, maybe you'd better click on this one instead.

edit: it gets worse (arguably): "Glory, glory Hallelujah" as a light-hearted dance tune. With a conga line. "Eva @ VaĊĦek" do not wear pheasant feathers, but they do adapt American country music in inexplicable ways.

Wekk, the first part that sounds like the tune "she'll be coming round the mountain" has an inexplucable chorus of "singing i-yo yuppie yuppie yo," and the "glory hallelujah" part does talk about Kapitan John Brown, but my Czrch has not advanced to the point that I can tell more than that about it.

I'm probably going to be listening to a lot more of this unfortunate music because they pronounce every syllable excruciatingly clearly and it seems like potentially good comprehension practice.
