The Muppets & John Denver // Twelve Days of Christmas

*cough* Admittedly I chickened out of drawing all the gifts, but I double-checked earlier and yes, everything is in the bag, big promise. ;) Have a good start into the week! *hust* Zugegebenermaßen habe ich mich ein bisschen davor gedrückt, alle Geschenke zu zeichnen, die da jeden Tag eintreffen, aber ich habe vorhin nochmal nachgeschaut. Es sind wirklich alle Dinge im Sack. Hoch und heiliges Ehrenwort. :) Habt einen guten Start in die Woche!

Karel Svoboda // Tři oříšky pro Popelku

This is the soundtrack to »3 Wishes (or better 3 Hazelnuts) for Cinderella«. A Czech movie that became a classic here. We watch it every year at christmas time. Here is a small excerpt where Cinderella (with a small hint by the owl) finds out, that the hazelnuts are more than mere nuts. Love her tights at the end, by the way. Ein Klassiker zum Samstag: Die Filmmusik zu »3 Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel«. Wird jedes Jahr zur Weihnachtszeit geschaut, um dann einen Ohrwurm mit sich herumzutragen. Falls es jemanden geben sollte, dem der Film gar nichts sagt, einfach mal hier klicken und gucken.

Sufjan Stevens // I saw three ships

Today's gif is a little bit bigger than usual. Sorry if this puts someone's computer or internet connection on its limit. I just couldn't get it smaller. Have a wonderful advent weekend! The calendar goes on, of course, during the weekend :)! Heute ist das Gif. ein bisschen größer als gewöhnlich. Ich hoffe, das zwingt keinen Computer oder Internetverbindung in die Knie, falls doch: Entschuldigung! Ich hab's einfach nicht kleiner gekriegt. Euch allen ein schönes Adventswochenende (hui, schon 3 Kerzen)! Der Adventskalender geht hier natürlich auch übers Wochenende ;)
