Well the silly snodomes are silly enough, it is true,but the Chinese workers
would be unlikely to know which tunes were correct...
Now that I think of it, there are probably a few on the list who never heard
of the first couple of songs you listed :)
When I showed the object to friends the other night they started laughing
at the tackiness BEFORE they heard the music... and said
"What does it play, Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel ??? My apologies if I spelled
that wrong .
This will either peak the interest of others on the list to look at the listing
or thouroughly baffle them ;)
