What's this tune playing in the background called and what device is playing it (doorbell, toy, phone ringtone, etc).
Original tune is from a racist 19th century folk song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDbfJDTiuJw&t=33Somewhere along the line it became the tune for ice cream vans, which is what you hear here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axBvlF3G_foThen they made a rap version.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SBN_ikibtgYou can see the ice cream truck that is almost certainly playing it at the end of the video.
>>1568818thank you very much
>>1568821I'm curious how you had no concept of ice cream trucks or their tunes, even just through cultural osmosis.Do they not have them in your country?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZoIHU9Ln_E
>>1568823I've heard the tune many times before on TV/movies but didn't get interested in finding the source until now.Where I live the only tune I've heard ice cream trucks play is Music Box Dancer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BICXTDw3dEY
>>1568824You can find almost any song in this style by searching music box.I've always secretly harbored a desire to be an ice cream man just to play actual tunes instead of the same old cliche shit they usually play.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVUtBMSFUQUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gz-03YKngIshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JuZefe94TI
>>1568818I knew about Turkey in the Straw but this true origin is new to me, thanks for the history lesson
