:: ABOUT THE FANLISTING :: Clean and Bright was adopted by Maria of The FacesGH Network in April 2006. The fanlisting was created by Latisha of Star-Wisher.com. :: ABOUT EDELWEISS :: (Source: Latisha of Star-Wisher.com) "Edelweiss" was the last song ever penned by Rodgers and Hammerstein. By this time, Oscar Hammerstein was dying. In the book The Sound of Music: The Making of America's Favorite Movie, Julia Antopol Hirsch writes: "He knew he was dying when he wrote the number, which makes the simple song about a man's love for his country even more powerful." (30) The word Edelweiss is a combination of the German words "noble" and "white". The Edelweiss flower is generally found in the mountainous regions of Austria and Bavaria, Germany. It is a small, white, wooly flowering plant. Although it was believed to always have grown in this region, new evidence shows that it may have been brought from Asia in the past few centuries. :: EDELWEISS :: Edelweiss, :: WHAT IS A FANLISTING? :: A fanlisting is essentially just a list of fans.
