Töss Valley
The Töss Valley (German: Tösstal) is a valley and a region of the canton of Zürich in Switzerland.
Geography
The valley embraces parts of the Zürcher Oberland including the districts of Hinwil, Pfäffikon and Winterthur, in addition to parts of the Zürcher Unterland (lower Töss valley).
Usually Tösstal is the name of the upper Töss valley, i.e. its narrow, valley-like area in the southeast of the city of Winterthur. The Töss River rises at Tössstock mountain (el. 1,154 m) flows along the valley including the municipalities and villages of Steg, Lipperschwändi and Wellenau (villages of Fischenthal), Bauma, Juckern, Blitterswil, Saland, Tablat, Wila, Turbenthal, Zell, Rikon, Kollbrunn, and Sennhof near Winterthur. The Tösstal is a popular recreation area and well known for hiking tours in the surrounding mountains as Schnebelhorn and Hulftegg pass, and for skating and biking along Töss river.
The lower Töss valley includes the widely flattened parts in the west of Winterthur; it compromises the quarters of Winterthur called Töss and Wülflingen, the municipalities Neftenbach, Pfungen, Dättlikon, Embrach, Rorbas, Freienstein and Teufen where the Töss river joins the Rhine river at Tössegg.

by: Etta JamesNow come here baby, get ready to go
'Cause I'm in the mood to rock and roll
And that's all, I mean to tell you, that's all
All you have to do is rock and roll and that's all
We'll start to rockin', I don't like to stop
You better get ready to rock around the clock
And that's all, I mean to tell you, that's all
All you have to do is rock and roll and that's all

All you have to do is rock and roll and that's all, yeah
You can learn everything they teach you in school
But if you can't rock and roll, you're not a fool
