The school bells in Kanon play the same melody as the bells at my university. Is it a common tune or a weird coincidence?

Unless the one you're talking about is different, (every Anime I've seen's school bells are the same so I think its safe to assume) It's a mimic of Big Ben, isn't it? My university plays the same bells.

...but why are you asking /c/?

Because /a/ would have saged it into oblivion.
They're too busy arguing over Lucky Star and chimeing "Nice Boat" and other retarded memes over and over to be bothered by unique content.

I think you mean the Westminster Quarters? Four measures with four notes each? I'm at work so I can't pull up my copy of Kanon to double check, but it should be the most popular clock tower chime. So yea, common tune.

iirc:
Oh lord our god
Be thou our guide
That by thy help
No foot may slide

Neat, thanks for the info. I had never thought about where my school's hourly tune came from, so I was a little spooked when I heard it in Kanon.
