Musically, the song came together very quickly in the studio Drummer Pierre van der Linden started playing some two-bar fills, and guitarist Jan Akkerman came in with a tune. Focus frontman Thijs van Leer decided this would be a good time to yodel, something he had never done before. “Everyone considered it a very funny joke,” he said. “But we found ourselves drawn back to the song.” Source: - Songfacts.com #Music #Focus Sun, 10 May 2026 00:55:50 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://www.pixelscope.de https://www.pixelscope.de/client/assets/images/icons/icon-1500x1500.png https://www.pixelscope.de/videos/watch/c3032130-18a0-42dc-8447-9654e5f0f82b All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://www.pixelscope.de/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
