"Research by a team of neuroscientists has revealed that male mice construct complex songs and sing them for minutes at a time when they come across sex pheromones produced by potential mates. The songs are not audible to the human ear because they are too high frequency and although scientists knew mice emitted ultrasonic chirps, recordings of the noises had never been fully analysed."

 

this article has MP3 audio clips which are very nice

 

they are the song of the Mouse shifted down 4 octaves.

Here is the HORNY MOUSE SONG with the pitches shifted down 4 octaves, but with the original tempo---so the phrasing is not slowed down at all.

here is another version of the Horny Mouse Song where the tempo has been slowed down 16-fold----so the individual notes or words of love which the mouse says last 16-times longer. And also the frequencies are brought down 4 octaves, putting them in our audible range.

The mouse sings this song when he sniffs something which a female mouse has peed on, if it has the pheromone that indicates she is feeling romantic.

 

Personally I like to sing and all sorts of smells can help get me into a tuneful mood----but not mouse piss.
