Here in the UK, ice cream vans on their rounds play some cheesy music througha really tinny sound system. The other day, it occurred to me that I can only recall ever hearing two or three different tunes, ever! You'd have thought that they'd get some new ones!!! Has anyone else noticed this? And does anyone know why?



Cheers,



Dave.

    The particular music is an integral part of the signal used to detect your televisions.

    Hmm, they play the same crap in the US. They must use it for a reason. Maybe the music has hypnotic qualities that only work on children and fat people.

    well if they used "Ice Cream Man", they'd have to sanitize it for kids...



    original lyrics are quite suggestive.

    Yes, David Lee Roth driving a red, black and white striped ice cream truck and EVH standing on the hood, wailing away.

    I thought that's to sell Pavlov ice cream.

    Is that anything like "Pavlov's Bell Ringin' Meal Time Chow"?
