The sound of SNCF

Friday, February 25th, 2011 at 11:50 | categories: General mumbling, Travel

If you happen to travel France by train, you will hear a lot of announcements–and every single one starts with the strangely jazzy SNCF jingle. First it will amuse you, then it will make you lose your nerves only to amuse you again. In the end you’ll just hum the tune in your sleep, whether you like it or not.

Here’s a little YouTube clip, a whole song inspired by the jingle. Enjoy. Sort of.

    Haha, yeah, I am wondering who came up with that jingle. It’s horrible and completely random 😛 Its a sound you will never forget at least 😀

    The clip isn’t that bad, however 😀

    HAHAH!
    That’s so true, but I though I hated it untill i had to stick to Italy’s “well well well” jingle!
