Mr Whippy...I need help!

[fitzy's_eyes]

Hey there....I am desperate to find the music that plays in the Mr Whippy Ice Cream van...someone once told me it's called the Happy Wanderer or something.
I need it in MP3 format to download.
Can anyone help...!!!!
It's a challenge for you....

 

[Fishfinger]

You'd have to be "challeged" to want it.
Unfortunately I think I know it. - Greensleeves.

 

[fitzy's_eyes]

Greensleeves... no way, try again!! Anyone else???

Mr Whippy hates our street...as soon as he sees some kids come out of their houses, he speeds up and gets the hell out of there

Beethoven - Fur Elise

Are you sure it's not Greensleeves? Your Mr Whippy is strange.

Haven't seen Mr Whippy for years. The only one I've seen is a broken down rusty one at Mullaloo beach. Not that that helps your cause. I always though it was greensleeves. Why do you need to know so DESPERATELY?

 

[Lethal]

It's Greensleeves. Never heard of it being anything else.

well if the kids are flocking to Mr Whippy...it must be a Wiggles song

 

[sapaul]

It is Greensleeves.

Greensleeves


Here's a midi to see if it IS the song you're looking for, if it is, you should have no probs finding it on mp3

I'm telling you it's Fur Elise.

listen to the sample on this page

The gelati vans here play some annoying noise like music from luna park, maybe it's that. Mr Whippy plays Greensleeves here, maybe try duelling banjoes.

My mistake. I just realised your location is not what I had thought. Fur Elise is probably what you're after, but it's the gelati truck rather than Mr Whippy.

 

[ComicStoreGuy]

Fur Elise in my area.

 

[Bomber Spirit]

Most of them play Greensleeves, but I've heard a couple that play Mein Vater war ein Wandersmann - check this link and is this the song you're looking for?

The originaL Mr Whippy song was definitely "Greensleeves".

 

[fitzy's_eyes]

THANKS TO ALL THOSE THAT SAID GREENSLEEVES!!! Now does anyone know where i can get a version that sounds identical?? All the ones i have listened to sound too classical and slow!! the challenge just doesnt stop!!

 

[Milkman]

Why?

trying to be the new age Pied Piper?...lure the kids away with the music

 

[GoEagles]

I'm sure the Mr Whippys in Perth used to play "Raindrops keep falling on my head". Not sure if that is the same as Greensleeves

Used to always be the Happy Wanderer when I was a kid in Newcastle, but Greensleeves seems to have the Sydney market locked up.
