Broken Music






 

Broken Music



A few days ago I was minding my own business watching TV here in England, when an ice cream van drove by.

English ice cream vans sounds nothing like the Danish ones, and it is quite possibly the most horrifying sound I have ever heard. In Denmark it's just a bell going DING DING DING. Here it's the sound of broken children's music, like and old scratched record that has been slowed down a bit. :fear:

Thank God, in Finland ice cream vans go just repetitive didididii-sound, which is very happy and joyful and really attracts children.

Better than Für Elise (not on itself; it being used for ice cream).

In Sweden, the ice-cream song´s lyrics are "Now we rip off kids, now we rip off kids, of their allowance"

That's how they sound in the USA too. And it's weird. A few times I've heard them slip Strangers In The Night into their playlist or the theme from Lovestory or something like that.
It also bothers me that the sound carries for MILES so you rush out with a handful of bills to get an ice cream sandwich and they aren't on your street or even in your block and they have no intention of coming anywhere near your block either. TT_TT
