Comment on Hungary’s Musical Road plays a melody through your car tyres as you drive—an amazing fusion of road design and sound engineering.

  It’s a different song that I don’t recognize, but it does sound correct for whatever it’s trying to be, if that makes sense

    It’s a well known Hungarian song from the 90s, “Route 67”, the joke is it’s painted on the actual route 67.

    This is the original song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE4aAQCghGs

      The original is blocked in the US, but I found this and it seems to work: youtu.be/tDYjZ36IGfE

      Definitely a pretty good representation! You know, as good as you can get when your instrument is grooved asphalt and rubber

      the joke is it’s painted on the actual route 67.

      I couldn’t find it in the linked article either, but unfortunately it’s less jokey, as in, the vocalist that also sang this song passed away tragically early in 2011, and apart from the systemic corruption, it was also made as a tribute to him.
