4 A.M.
In Animal Crossing , the song begins with a strong percussion beat, followed by a bass clarinet. The bass clarinet is later accompanied by a quiet vibraphone. It is very similar to 3 A.M., the only differences are that the tempo and rhythm are somewhat different, and the bassoons, bass clarinets, guitars, xylophones, and metallophones are sometimes played at different points and verses.
At 4 A.M. in Wild World and City Folk , the player can hear a shaker with a crescendoing marimba with slight sounds of an accordion. Overall, it is a bright, but a very repetitive, dry song during the early hours of the morning. There is no drum kit and very few instruments, as mentioned.
In New Leaf , the song is a quiet, unsettling theme, probably meant to represent the tired, groggy people who haven't gone to bed yet and are almost zombie-like. Alternatively, it has been said that it sounds so unsettling because the number four is pronounced the same way as death in the Japanese language, making four an unlucky number there.
