Title: What is your mobile / cell phone ring tone?
Post by: Trevor on December 29, 2010, 09:21:42 AM
HappyGilmore once wrote that his ringtone was Memories by Weezer, so therefore this thread.  :teddyr:

I'll say it: I hate cell phones ~ the only reason I have one is to get hold of my mom and my work insists that I have one as well so I have two of the things. If anyone wants either of these two numbers, PM me and I will give them to you. My work cell phone has the song Don't You Just Know It from the film Snatch and my personal phone has the An Eye For An Eye theme which I stole off of my review on here.  :teddyr:

To be honest, I haven't taken my cell phone anywhere in a long time. I believe the ringtone is still the Doctor Who theme. Prior to that, it was the Benny Hill theme.

My ring tone is the theme to the PC game Quest for Glory.

I don't like cell phones either.  I only have one because I was pressured to get one from my mom and so I can call/text my friend for free since we have the same service and she doesn't have a home phone and refuses to use e-mail.  I have also discovered the added benefit of always being equipped to take photos of things in places and at times one usually wouldn't bring a camera.  I don't use it for lengthy conversations.  If I'm in a place where I don't have a normal phone then I'm not in a place to catch up with Aunt Maude.  I just use it for quick calls and questions like - What size underpants did you need me to buy?

Generic ring. I'm not into expressing myself through my ringtone, but then again I'm a curmudgeon in those types of respects.

I do occasionally appreciate a ringtone I hear once in a while though. Some gray-haired repair guy came to the house the other day to look at the dishwasher and see if the home warranty would cover the repair. His phone went off and it was "The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly" theme. That made me smile.

Mine's the intro theme music for the TV series Monkey.  The extended actual song version is too excellent!

I wish I could change my sms tone to be something else as its a boring ding sound, stupid iphones...

My general ringtone is Torgo's theme from Manos: The Hands of Fate.  I have Homer's 32 D'ohs set up as my ringtone for my supervisor's phone numbers, and the Imperial March as the ringtone for the computer room numbers.  During the Christmas season my ringtone is the audio of Cousin Eddie emptying his toilet into the sewer with Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer playing minus him saying that his s--ter was full.

Call ringtone: Aquarius from the film/stage show Hair.

 Voicemail and Text message tone: Siberian Khatru - Yes

Picture/Voice message tone: Xanadu from the stage show of the same name.

None of these are the full song, but that's generally the case.

I got a great cell phone (my first nice one and second overall) the day before yesterday.

I wanted to purchase the sound of monks creepily chanting from The Omen, but no good selections were available. That is why my main ringtone is now Tubular Bells (The theme song to The Exorcist)

Got a new phone and I'm using an excerpt from Peter Gabriel's Intruder.

The section is from about the 0:42-1:01 mark.

The main actual orchestral Indiana Jones theme from Raiders of the Lost Ark is my main ring tone for my cell phone.

During Christmas, I change it to Christmas with the Devil by Spinal Tap, during the fall it's the synthesized Halloween theme from the 1981 film Halloween 2.

I've also got this great and uber annoying Mexican polka that I put on my phone the week or so prior to Cinco De Mayo.  :twirl:

Sounds like an old rotary phone can't remember the name.  (Take that 1950's society.)  I'm exceedingly lazy with cell phones.  I can remember forgetting it a dozen times in the past month.

Mine is The Sound of Silence.  No, not the Simon and Garfunkel song, just complete silence:  I don't have a cell phone. :teddyr:

Neither do I, which makes two of us. I have been told I'm smart for  not having a cellphone, even though I'm in the minority, as I think up to 80% of the people in the U.S. not own a cellphone.

As for the song "Sound of Silence," I think it's a great song by a great musical duo and one of my all time favorite songs.

I've updated some of my notifications...

Ring tone - Metal Gear Solid's Incoming codec call.
Text message - Captain's log (sounds like a Star Trek cpu sound)
New Email - Transformers transforming sound (80's ver)

I'm still undecided on my daily alarm and my reminder sounds.
