A Cowboy Bebop Music Box

Aug 26, 2009 11 Comments by The Big Poobah

Its the middle of the week, and its kind of random, but I thought I’d blog about a particular thing that I really really want to own.

If you’ve ever watched Cowboy Bebop and you remember the very first scene…then you’d remember a very cute tune playing on a music box. Its a music box version of the song Adieu, composed by Yoko Kanno and is called Memory.

So what I want is this…a wind-up music box that can play that tune. You have no idea how indebted I’d be to anyone who finds that for me. I’ve wanted a music box like that ever since I first heard that tune. One day, when I have enough money, I’m certain that I’ll have it custom made.

Anyway, right now, just listening to those haunting plinks and plunks makes me wanna cry :(

    yes, very nostalgic and yesteryear indeed. flashbacks of nursery rhymes and sepia-tinted evenings. rocking horses and tricycles. birthday cards and gift-wrapped boxes :D

    Let me know if you find it! I’ve been considering making a custom order, but I thought surely someone has mass-produced this? But neither Sankyo or Yunshun have it in their catalogs, so…. ):
