At one point, I heard our local ice cream truck playing Wintergatan - Marble Machine. I thought it was cute and kinda refreshing to hear a newer tune like that.
that’s a cracking tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q
this should be the song that all ice trucks play, this is amazing
I was hoping for Adele.
My disapppintment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
I was hoping for Lionel Richie.
Yes, I was in fact looking for ice cream.
That’s the one they play in my area in Michigan, I really hate it
In my hometown they played the entertainer most of the time:
Whatever it is, he’s out at 9:30pm and I’m convinced he’s not selling anything legal.
look at this guy, never bought an icecream at night. You get the best deals that way!
And the best meth…
hah! *slaps shoulder* yeah!
What 'chu want?
Pop Goes the Weasel like this one (not mine)
It only plays a tune when it’s run out of ice cream, or at least that’s what my mother told me 😅
smart woman!
Just dropping by to share the legendary
lmao, actually slapped
LMAO, my man co-opted an old racist tune. You go on with your bad self.
The Entertainer
Mr. Sandman just like this one.
Hush little baby, don’t say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
Must be a benelux thing? Same thing here
Greensleeves boooooriiing
I fuckn love Greensleeves! Greensleeves is my JAM
Yeah, if you’re riding to Canterbury!
Greensleeves is the only ice cream van song I’ve heard in Australia.
The last one I saw here was over a decade ago and it played Ears Hang Low
Ears Hang Low
Someone was raised on Barney, that’s Turkey in the Straw
diddle doo doo doo diddle diddle diddle doo
diddle doo doo doo diddle diddle diddle doo
diddle doo doo doo diddle diddle diddle doo
diddle doo doo doo
The Farmer in the Dell?
Turkey in the Straw.
Mine played the same thing.
all ice cream vans in my country play the same, bespoke song
Hemglassbilen!
There are three.
One plays “Brave Bells of Scotland” with the word “HELLO-O” yelled by a distorted female voice every so often.
One plays chiptune Christmas Carols all year round.
One plays a medley of old songs heavily featuring “Turkey in the Straw”.
“HELLO-O”
Christ that should be illlegal
I had a Nightmare once where I heard a child crying out in the streets. I looked out and it was an Ice-cream-Truck playing screams instead of music.
christ that gave me chills
I live in a weird ice cream van black hole. The last place we live had them and that was only 5 blocks away (as the crow flies). Every year more families with kids move into the neighborhood and every summer I think the vans will expand their territory to cover us, but 10 years in and it hasn’t happened.
I need to start using “as the crow flies” more
