  • the road is possessed

  • this is really cool :D

  • The 10 people who disliked this are just pissed because they cant drive on it

  • @JVPRCNG They are pissed because they can't drive period.

  • it would be awesome if u were driving down a road and you hear "Imperial March" from Star Wars

  • @KingLewi992 XD not a fan of star wars but that seems awesome.

  • Pray for the people in Japan.

    In the name of ever religion.....please......

    They All Need Your Help.

  • if you like new music. here is U.S. based acoustic instrumental trio that has gained a small following in Japan for structured arrangements, atypical mid song changes and visual imagery painted by the sound. chamber violin floats over, non-chord based acoustic guitar and a soft drummer from a marching band.  created a new sound called "musicbox". they go by "Star FK Radium" search for them on Youtube or Google them. Nice web site with entire debut CD on their music player.

  • did any body else watch the mexican in the cupid suit before watching this?

  • how fantastic only in Japan

  • I dislike these noise.

    My car want to run more silent.

    (From JAPAN)

  • That would freak me out if I was cruising along the road and all of a sudden, some creepy music starts playing from the road itself.

  • it sounds a bit like... wounded wale or sth.

  • I would get out there with a chisel and change the tune to "highway to hell".. :D

  • Nihon <3

  • i swear if i see that pop tart commercial ONE more time i'm gonna loose it! -__-

  • Anime, sushi and musical roads... JAPAN KICKS ASS! :DD

  • soo cool, similar road was built in Lancaster, CA but later paved over because of whiny neighbors.

  • This was tried in one spot in America - Lancaster, California - but complaints from drivers resulted in the musical road being paved back over.

    It wasn't the most melodious version of the William Tell Overture, but it only lasted some 15 seconds! One can't help but feel this is somehow indicative of the American mentality today: a tremendous aversion to anything new or different, especially when it's something that's somehow "imposed" on you.

  • @TroyOi The musical road still exists. I just drove it today.

  • whether one likes or not the idea, it is still very original and shows how Japan is special in so many ways we don't even realize :)

    Warm regards from Israel :) and you are invited to visit my channel about what really goes on in our region but gets too little or wrong exposure sometimes in the media.

    Love you :)

  • @JusticeVSpropaganda Hi Dear, Just Happen to notice yours,

    I am eager to visit you channel, Please

    with warmest regads.

  • @jambu95951 welcome :) there is also another nice channel that may interest you : user/eternaljewishpeople

  • @jessyy19881 Israel has been a recognised country since 1948. Whether you agree with that decision or not, please don't encourage the propagation of this sort of xenophobic ignorance on YouTube.

  • you suck

  • now all we need is a college prank to do this ovenight and make twilight zone music!

  • now all we need is a clllege prank to do this ovenight and make twilight zone music!

  • now all we need is a clllege prank to do this ovenight and make twilight zne music!

  • There are a lot of similar kind of this in japanese highway for anti-sleeping drive. This road may be just for fun.

  • Why is it that it's always Japan that thinks up all the fun stuff? It's just too bad that, like England, Japanese drive on the wrong side of the road.

  • @Kahndawg superior people drive that way

  • why is it so that we never see any dogs and cats in japan...not even in movies

  • the truth is they have but. its not allowed to have pets on the streets

  • Would if you were stoned as hell and didn't know that road made music?

  • nice roads . nice place . nice .

  • When you dont know where you are, that is the scariest thing ever!! At 2 in the morning when you are just driving along, and have never even herd of these, and all of a sudden a humming noise, your just like WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?!!?!?!?!!? ^^ i miss Japan

  • domo harigato mr roboto

  • Yes they do drive on the left, its because the cars are right hand drive, and to EccentricRichard technically no one drives on the rong side when u think about it, in the states and other countrys cars are left hand drive like New Zealand, aus and japan n so on are right hand drive

  • they drive on the left side of the road in Japan.

  • taka shika fuku....what?

  • looool

  • Takashika Fukushira, I think.

  • はいっ

  • It works, It's amazing, but it doesn't sound pretty...

  • I could see the song thriller be a musical road WOO

  • I think it would be awfully annoying if you lived within hearing distance of the road...

  • The one in Lancaster, California actually had to be moved to the outskirts of town for that very reason. XD

  • This would be really disturbing if you didn't realize you were driving on a musical road.

  • indeed @_@

  • very clever

  • This is awesome.

  • Yeah smooth criminal :P

  • they should make a musical rode with one of mj's songs

  • those toyota hybrid synergy drives are so quiet these days drive over them with one of those hybrids and you will hear it as smooth as listing to an mp3.

  • A bridge between Mobridge and Wakpala, South Dakota was for years known as the Singing Bridge because the drainage grooves across its concrete surface also made your tires "sing". But unlike the planned, tuned spacing in the case of the tourist attractions, this groove spacing was fairly random and the "music", being an accidental side effect, was very atonal and some of the elders on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation used to joke with young children about the bridge being a home to spirits.

  • You can get info on the road in Lancaster Ca at

    MusicalRoad (dot) net

  • the lancaster CA road was repaved.

  • they moved it i thought?

  • yah i drove it today on Avenue g tuen on it and head left from the highway.

  • we should have musical roads in USA

  • you do lolol

  • we have one in Lancaster, California..check out the videos on youtube

  • see musicalroad (dot) net

  • oh wait this is already youtube lol my bad

  • wow....haha...do the one here in lancaster tell us what mph to drive at...despite different cars...i heard it was 55 mph but is there an actual sign that tells us or something?

  • OMG WATCH OUT HE IS ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE ROAD

    jk its fun to make fun of idiots sometimes

  • you know they aren't idiots right? They drive on the opposite side than we do in the states.

  • im not an idiot, it was a joke

  • In Japan people drive on the left side of the road. Don't panic. :)

  • lol someone finally understands sarcasm on youtube. And no people I was not calling the Japanese idiots but idiots that don't understand cultural differences

  • And, as any Brit or Aussie knows, it is the correct side =)

    You Yanks (and Continental Europeans) just drive on the wrong side!

  • @EccentricRichard you have 2 hands: a RIGHT HAND and a LEFT HAND......so the RIGHT SIDE must logically be THE RIGHT FUCKING SIDE, stupid fuckin left hand drivers.

  • @ROY0666 - WTF? We have two hands, one right, one left, so automatically driving on the right is correct? By the very same yardstick, driving on the left is also correct. Here in the UK, we change gear using our left hand and our left foot (oh, hang on, you Americans don't know what manual gearboxes are - they're these mechanical devices that make our cars lighter, faster, more economical and more fun), and we steer with our right hand the whole time, and the left joins it most of the time.

  • @EccentricRichard right, cuz i said so. im sick of you asshole brits/english/whatever talkin shit about americans, even tho you got beat into submission during war

  • @ROY0666 - you can't just say you're automatically right just because you say so. I'm not an asshole, nor even an arsehole (since ass is actually another word for donkey, albeit now little-used). Also, what war did we ever get beaten into submission in?! If you're talking WWII, we'd already seen off Hitler's attempts to invade us by 1941... you Americans have a habit of turning up to wars two years late!

  • awesome ;p

  • creative!! =)

  • It is indeed amazing.

    When I first drove that road I thought that I forgot to turn off my radio, but then I noticed that is was not on.

    Just be careful with the speed, not faster as advised.

  • Great !

  • cool!

  • Japan is gorgeous how can you think otherwise?

  • are you trying to prove something skdab523 or are you just making an ass of yourself? grow up

  • were you trying to speak intelligently?

  • Ha! Impressive. :)

  • wow! wonderful idea!

  • Thanks for sharing this nice video

  • Japan is the coolest country in the planet

  • @izzy1081 ... that could be Alaska mate

  • @TheEnergyNippleZ Lol, Alaska isn't a country, but i get your point. :D

  • @izzy1081 I do agree! it's such a unique Country. I've been once and I've been impressed by the all crazy things They have, the style and design of trains, art, architecture; food is simply great and people are the nicest I ever met.

  • @izzy1081 on the planet.

  • There is it in the highway.

    To warn doze & speed

    翻訳は出来てるかな?

  • japan is a beautifll country ..i would like to visit it some day

  • I couldn't get the exact location. It is just 100 miles north of Tokio...

    Does anybody know how to get there. I am planing to visit it...

    Thanks a lot.

  • TOKYO! you spelled it like tokio hotel that bugz me

  • Japan is cool

  • Yeah, your real mature Chrisig0..

    " Who ever posts a comment more then 2 sentences needs to get a fucking life " Lol befor you bitch at somebody about posting more then 2 FUCKING sentences try learning how to spell first.. Notice I caplocked FUCKING.. because that is how you spell it.. Loser.

  • Who the fuck cares, stop arguing already ... I may like Japan more, but without South Korea the world wouldn't be the same as we know it ...

  • It's not argument per se. It's one side saying terrible things and the other side acting in self defense of his/her country. The Korean guy/girl never said like "Korea is the best" or anything, it's just that liuguoyu jumped in out of nowhere. But yes, you're right. This is a nice video about something cool so we should all just stfu and enjoy.

  • fuck you korea, if you check my profile you will knowing why japan is number one. You will learning why Korea is number 10000 which is being last place of star world!

  • OK, you are right, but I think that Japan should hate the USA because of atom bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, too. Don't you think? In my opinion, fault is on both sides.

  • So, do you just want the two countries to just hate each other even though they seem to have moved along in their history? I remember reading somewhere that Japanese and American people view each other as closest international friends over almost the rest of the world. Kind of a nice thought we in Europe sometimes seem to miss.

  • @patrycjusz10081992 Its called a war man

  • I can't help but find hilarious the way some people in here reply to some stupid comments with a lot of thought, it's just incredible that someone that smart and well educated cares about what an asshole has to say, that makes him not so smart, let's just enjoy this, it's something good, besides, proudness is for the ignorant, it somehow makes less of everybody else because they didn't achieve something others did. Proud of a nation? It's better to be proud of helping others, now that's good.

  • Very clever words.

  • learn from japan they are already over that, they live in the future and they use electrical cars, f*ck oil lets spend on musical roads

  • lol

    i agree.

    Lets get to work on our own musical roads dangit!

  • we have some.Lancaster

  • they should spend their money in whatever they want,good enviroments are good for people's mood, and if they want a music experience why not?

    haven't USA spend in stupid things also?

    I think we already know the answer...

    they are not the ones who spent millions of dollars on a war,war is stupid not this,I rather enjoy a musical trip than making excuses for oil!

  • if you have the money to do it, go for it. You only have ONE life, anyway. so just enjoy everything that everyone does for others.

    i dont think this is stupid. in my opinion, its creative and clever.

  • And the USA should invest in saving their own economy and their own people from the worst crisis since the Great Depression instead of invading other countries searching for non-existent WMDs.

    I'll quote you here:

    "God! whats wrong with these people?!?! "

  • Well. Japanese car companies are doing much to save the planet. Much more than what most other countries are doing. I'd let them get away with roads, but that's just me.

  • I'm sorry but you must be confused with some other country, actually, Japan makes some of the most fuel efficient cars in the world, and the fact that they are making electric cars, doesn't say anything to you? There's bad things like everywhere else in the world, but they are actually very honorable, and don't need to cause wars to make money, or steal others oil, I can honestly say they are admirable, so are each and every country in the world for at least something they did well.

  • so what came first? this or the civic musical road in the states?

  • hahaha You're funny. South Korean always claim that they are the FIRST country to do something. It's called "Uriginal" or "Koreginal (Korea + original)". Judo, Takeshima, Origami, now Singing Road?

    Get a life.

  • Never say never, but more to the point, never say always. No one ever ALWAYS does anything. I find your perspective on Koreans pedantic at best. I checked out your profile and you're supposed to be some sort of crusader on a mission to fight against racism? HA! Well start with fixing your self.  You are full of hate and bitterness. Unlike Judo or Origami, the origin of the singing highway can be tangibly traced. And Joonsuk is right, you are wrong. Get a life old man

  • South Koreans are the first of everything, and also they are the losers of everything.

  • You're a doodoo face. You're a kaka face. Do those statements mean anything? No. Not unless I provide legitimate support for those claims. Same applies to you. WHY are Koreans losers? Also, even if you could prove that Koreans are "the first of everything", stating that Koreans are losers is a non sequitur. Being first doesn't automatically lead to being a loser. Even if you were being sarcastic, building an argument around sarcasm is a fallacy of its own.

  • The odds of you successfully arguing your way out of this is stacked against you. First and foremost, you must define "loser". Even when you do, you have to justify what makes YOUR definition valid. Then, you must link that term with solid examples to display why it's even worth arguing about. THEN, you have to show how if someone is always claiming to be the first at something, that makes that person a "loser". Perhaps a liar, an embellisher,, but a loser? Wrong

  • Finally, let's suppose you weren't attmepting an argument, and that you were simply shooting off a statement deliberately to offend. What makes you think that your words hold that much significance as to have the impact you imagined it would have? As for me, I AM building an argument against you, not because your words meant so much to me, but because I know that MY words will mean a lot to you. If and when you choose to reply to this, try to bring your A game unless you want to get burned

  • dude, all I can say is "you koreans are sick"! both North and South!But the difference is, the south is sick from civilians to goverenors, in the north, is sick from governors to the civilians! what do you belong to?

  • Owned! That's right, that IS all you can say. I covered all your exits didn't I? Me? What do I "belong" to? LOL My heart and soul belong to my family and my beautiful girl friend whom I intend to marry soon; they also belong to my country- South Korea!

  • oh..belong to your country south korea. mmmmm..ok?! May I ask, where is South Korea?

  • Are you asking me because you don't know?

  • why dont u just call urself a Japanese just like rest of Koreans? Korea banned Japanese animation till 1998,becasue Japaense animations is too popular that Koreans animation hard to compete!Korea limits Japanese products sales in Korea, why?becasue Japanese products are too good,once allowed free sales,Korean companies go strait down to the hell.come on man,just stay behind the Japanese indetity,that makes u a much better human being!remember,Japanese innovates stuffs Koreans copy the stuffs!

  • Do you know what I did today? I met with my girl friend and we went to see a traditional Korean musical. Afterwards, we drove to Han river and took a nice walk while discussing our plans of the future. I called my parents and congratulated them on their 30th anniversary. My brother, who is a surgeon in New Jersey at the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, called me and announced that his wife is pregnant. I'm going to be an uncle =) Then my gf and I went to drink some yuja cha at a cafe.

  • oh well,looks very nice! shame on you that you did not watch a trational japanese musical;did you drive a japanese car to riverside? did you commicate with your gf in Japanese about ur plan of future? is your brother going to give his baby a japanese name such as "Yamomoto' at end, u should not drink some shit like yuja cha, u should drink Japanese Sake!come on mate,if u r korean,u shud consume everything that is Japanese,becasue you people and your country is the sub-ordinate of japan anyways!

  • I feel sorry for you. Why are you so miserable man? If you can find something to look forward to in your own life, you wouldn't be so caught up on hating people you don't even know. All I can say to you is, I hope one day you will stop the hatred and find peace in your heart. God bless you brother.

  • God bless me? oh dear, if god can bless me, please let him get you out of my face! yes, i will one day find peace in my heart,so as you, please find what yourself turely are!and tell your own countrymen, stop saying "south Korea invents everything"!

  • Dear liuguoyu, please stop talking like that. Most people in Japan don't feel what you said, did you know that? If you want to talk badly about Koreans don't use Japan's name. A true Japanese person with proper manner and background never talks like you. You are either a foreigner, or a low class Japanese.

  • what i should talk or how i should talk isn't the businese you should mind at all. I just try to take off some bullshit ego from someone from some countries and i enjoy doing that. u wanna comment on this video pleae go ahead to do it. is my businese to deal with that freak joonsuk88!!

  • nobody cares. talk about your own country, which is Nepal. and your name not Dante puhahaha!

    My business is what I making my business. youtube is the place nobody cares that is why people like you say whatever you want. i have problem with you since you using Japan's name to talk bad thing about other country. YOU ARE NOT JAPANESE SO DON'T SELL MY COUNTRY NAME. The End.

  • Would you like to know what my point is? I'm happy with my life. Are you? I'll bet you're not.

  • Are you number one Japan guy also me too! We are friendship strong in love! Kill Korea together and we laffing joke of Korea. I am Japan guy number one I honor to meet you. Fuck Korea and other Asian country. China is kill Tibet and also Nepal becuase fuck stupid tibet and nepal is weak! japan is kill China!! and Korea!!!!!!!!!! Fuck bae yong joon! Japan start singing road because engineer Tomoyoshi making good road to the best world which is japan. thank you, you are also number one japan

  • In case you're too stupid Japan hasn't had a military since WW2

  • Wow...call someone else stupid, and you are the one who is WRONG. Japan has a military, they just call it the JSDF (Japan Self-Defense Forces). They are a legitimate military.

  • In Japan's constitution, the Self Defense forces are only a defense oriented force. They cannot be the aggressors. They are pretty restricted by law. So not really legitimate military. More like the Coast Guard.

  • AH SHIT, BITCH BE OWNED

  • really?

  • To liuguoyu:

    one more thing please. i lonely many times. you cry for lonely many times too. you like me because i honest about feel of same you are japan number one guy. but please, i am not the gay sexy time guy. i think maybe you are but it's ok =) i understand. my wife is come back to home soon i hoping... until she coming back to home can you helping me my friend? please send me many messages, we are number one japan together! I love you liuguoyu!

  • wooo,a Korean speaks out in Japanese! u proud of ur nation so speak your own language!im afarid most of koreans are not so proud of their selfs!so many koreans pretend to be Japanese in overseas and even in their own country,u people speak in Japanese,dress like Japanese,name urself in Japanese and many mores!plus,80% of Japanese resterants in overseas are indeed run by the Koreans,why is that?caz Koreans cusines not well known and canot make profits,which Japanese is very popular!

  • so i take it as nobody really knows what came first? but of course, everybody is going to say that they cam first right? the way that honda presents their road makes it seem that they came up with it, but then again its honda and america...

  • Sounds like americans to me.

  • exactly

  • As though anyone could stand to crawl along at just 31 mph on a long, straight, smooth road.

  • who made this?

  • There is one in Lancaster, Ca that plays the a wm tell overture. look that one up also for a listen.....
