Arigatou gozaimasu! suki desu!

[anthrodance]

[thomasgotschalk]

@anthrodance > "These Yamanote soundpods can be bought at places like Yamashiroya, Tokyu Hands & Ishimaru" ^_-

[DeMichaelSuperFan]

aww no Ikebukuro? :(

[thomasgotschalk]

@DeMichaelSuperFan > Hey.... naaah sorry, no Ikebukuro - I just bought the songs from the stations I use the most! ^_-

[Morphia]

The music in Komagome is WRONG. That's the reason I stopped buying these.

In Komagome there SHOULD be 'Sakura saku'.

[thomasgotschalk]

@Morphia Thank you for your comment.

Sorry, im not that much into it so I know the actual titles of the songs.

I just love them, so I will continue buying them! ^^

[love1socket422]

OK, I love Meguro and Ebisu! xD

[IoIocaust]

Tokyo hands have a whole section with JR line merchendice. . I got a clock in the Shibuya one

[SonoraMan1]

How much do they cost? How thick are they, do a few of those fit into a big envelope? I might have to ask my sister to get me some of those and mail them to me. They are just great!

[thomasgotschalk]

@SonoraMan1 >>> Hi there. They cost 425 Yen. They have the same size as a small box of matches. You can easily fit 6 - 8 into a size 4 envelope in Japan.

Im glad you like them. ^_-

[jlam2468]

when i listen to these, my heart is desparately tugging me to go back to japan. i miss that place more than anywhere i've ever been. on the plane coming back home, i was crying half the way :[

[thomasgotschalk]

@jlam2468 >>> I know EXACTLY how you feel. What can I say..... Do your best to save up money, go back and have the time of your life!!! ^^

[pepposole]

@thomasgotschalk omg.... me too =*(

[nameusse25]

@jlam2468 Counldn't agree more... Been there twice, and everytime I hear these sounds it reminds me of that special atmosphere I love so much. It may mean nothing to some people, but I treasure it as a secret link between me and Japan. I love that country.

[metallicism]

@thomasgotschalk True, though in the case of Komagome station, the only difference in Sugamo-bound and Tabata-bound melodies is the instrument arrangement. I recommend you take the keychain back for a refund :)

[grakify]

I WANT THIS! XD

[metallicism]

the komagome melody is supposed to be sakura sakura - unless JR changed the melody at the station at the beginning of this year, the chip in the keychain is wrong ^^

[titlecade]

Where did you pick these up at?? どこを買いますか。

[thomasgotschalk]

-At Yamashiroya, Ueno. (but Tokyu hands has them as well.)

[TheOpticalFreak]

aren't these the sounds from the metro stations in japan ?

[thomasgotschalk]

No, theses sounds are from JR stations. (Yamanote line to be specific)

Tokyo Metro is an independent company, and is not a part of JR. (*Japan Railways)

[TheOpticalFreak]

oke, thanks four explaining. ^_^

[thomasgotschalk]

No problem ^_-
