    Ahhh, Japan…where even the traffic lights sing!

    Most larger crossings in Japan play this electronic tune, called Toryanse (通りゃんせ ) when it’s safe to cross.

    That song Toryanse literally means “Please Let Me Pass” in Japanese. It’s really just plain kimoi—creepy in its melancholic minor key….especially so when you think about the words:

    Going is easy / Coming back is fearful / Although I feel fearful, please let me pass / Please let me pass
