Oy vey. I know exactly which recording you're talking about (dunno whether it's the same truck or not). Yes, a few repetitions makes that "Hello" incredibly annoying.

They've been using that one for a few years. Before that it was the first half of "Turkey in the Straw", and I kept waiting and waiting for the second half of the tune ...

When I was a child in the suburbs the ice cream trucks didn't play -- or need -- music. They just had those little bells they would jingle, and we kids would notice from a couple blocks away. (Then again, the ice cream trucks weren't competing with cars playing rap music through subwoofers, either.)
