This is one of the most popular Slovenian folk-pop (Narodnozabavna) waltzes from the 20th century, and is one of Stanka and Boris Kovačič’s most popular songs, recorded in 1966, which has become a Slovenian evergreen. To my knowledge this song has not been widely played in German speaking alpine/folk music ensembles, except occasionally as an instrumental. In the 2000s it was popularised again by one of the earliest female-only alpine/folk music ensembles, Vesele Štajerke. What caught my attention the first time I heard it, was Vital Ahačič’s solo on chromatic button accordion in part B. Ahačič is known for his heartfelt, gentle playing, which perfectly compliments Stanka Kovačič’s vocals.
