The song takes me straight back to this kind of scene (view of the houses across the road from our house in Tokyo). |
It is the Tokyo sunset song, the song we hear played over the loudspeakers every night we're in Tokyo. From what I gather, a song is played in most towns across Japan (read the article for the dual reasons), but the song differs from place to place.

In Ichikawa it's "Going Home" and I too found it a bit creepy when I first arrived in Japan. Not as creepy as the music from the "Mysterious Black Trucks" though!
Mysterious Black Trucks?
