Very cool. I don't think I would have ever thought about doing that. Sharpening stone xylophone FTW.
 
I think that phone mic is hilarious. Talk about overcompensation.
 
I hate videos that at first make me feel normal for not being strange enough to think of what they are doing before seeing it, but then make me feel even stranger for watching it...twice....
 
And there I was thinking all stones play the same note (if there was such a musical note that is) - B#!
 
I wonder if that is a well know japanese tune - perhaps a song one might learn in school?

Very well known by Japanese people I think, maybe even before school. It's called "Tulips".

Thanks for confirming my question. "Tulips" is a pretty song and the water stone "trick" seems just a bit cooler somehow - after knowing the song.
 
Given the lyrics are roughly "all lined up, red and white and yellow, they look so pretty to me", one has to wonder if their subconscious motivation for that choice was that they really like their sharpening stones.
 
Or perhaps it is a song they knew everyone would recognize. That songs sounds oddly familiar - like a lot of songs for kids all over the world.
