Currently I'm using the song "Stinkfist" by Tool (surprise surprise) but I usually change my tune every week or so :P

For a long time I was using "Ain't Nuthin' But A G-Thang" by Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg :D

Well, the cell phone I currently use doesn't have any interesting ringtones, but the one I'm currently using is called "Beach".

I also have different rings for certain people. I have my sister programmed as "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" since she's such a Marilyn Monroe fanatic. :) RockandRollFan's is programmed as the "Mexican Hat Dance". He'll understand why. ;D There are a few others, but usually it plays some stupid one that came with the phone.

How 'bout those ringtones.  I use no cel-phone.  Do you know how reg*dd**ndiculously expensive they are where I live?  Nope I will stick to 20th century means of communication.
God lyk!

I use Electronica for my Nokia Cell Phone.See,every shnook on the street has to have a different ring therefore nobody won't be confused as much and they won't be searching to see if it was their phone that rung. ;D

I have a cheap phone that you can't download rings to.  The song is a classical song, but I don't know the name.

I use the plain, as close as you can get to a telephone ring, tone. Boring I know.

I don't have a cell phone.  I'm only 15, so it's not one of the most important things to me right now.  They do come in handy, but most of the time I can just ask a friend to use their cell phone (90% of the people in my class have their own anyway ::) )


AAAAANYWAY, the tone my mom uses on hers is "Nokia", I believe, it annoys the crap outta me, but whateva.

My husband downloaded the call to post, since he's a big horseracing fan.  We alternate that with the intro to Baba O'Reilly.

I used to have the tune 'Jump In My Car', but now I just have a standard telephone ring. The weird thing is, it's now easier to identify my phone ringing from all the other types of tones ! :D

Isn't that so true.  There are so few that use the plain old telephone ring.

We just got a cell phone two weeks ago and we are still learning how to use it. Well, should I say, I am learning how to use it. DC just ask me how to do something. I finally figured out how to set the tone. I was looking forward to having the Turkish Rondo by Mozart (that I hear a lot of times on people's cell phones), but they only have about 4 which are different. I choose one that is called something like bee buzz or something like that. I guess it is a good thing that I don't have the Turkish Rondo because it would get kind of confusing as to who's phone it was-not saying that we take the phone EVERYWHERE with us. Only out on the boat or if we are going on long drives (as in a couple of days away or so). We don't HAVE to talk to anyone while we are going out to eat. If they call, we will just call them back when we get home.

I used to use the plain old telephone ring but I rarely heard it because it was tucked down inside my purse.  I'm hoping the volume of this new ring will make it easier for me to hear calls so hubby won't give me a hard time.  :-[

Why can't everyone have the same ring? Every shnook on the street has to have a different tone. ::)

I use one of the ones that comes standard with the old Nokias - a minuet by Mozart, but I don't know the K number for it.

If I ever upgraded my phone, I was going to use an old "ring ring" telephone ring, but now everyone seems to be doing that so I'll have to think of something else. Maybe a digitised version of some cranky old b*stard yelling, "Answer the d*mn phone!" :D

It's a county song "Speed" by Montgomery Gentry. I'm sure that I will changing it soon. I love to change my ringtone often.

Do I have to say it? You ALL must know what I have for a ringtone!!!!


Whenever anyone calls me, I am alerted to the call by hearing "Stand and Deliver!" play on my phone. YAY!!!!! I am going to get Prince Charming at some point as well, but I like having my Stand and Deliver for right now. Its very original if I do say so myself!

If I get a cell phone, it'd be either just a basic ring or one of those things where you program in your own song. Then it'd be Beck's "Devil's Haircut".

I use the standard "Nokia Song" for my cell. If I ever upgrade to a phone that uses actual recorded tones, I always thought it'd be cool to use the same tone that Austin Powers uses in his Shaguar.

I use "Josh Abrahams - The Joker" for most contacts. The funny ones are improved by the theme of the Benny Hill show. Those who knows the show will now have the song in their head for the rest of the day ;-)

Just great!

Enter Sandman.. It was free and you know immediatley what it is.

I used to have the theme from Rocky, but it really didn't sound all that much like it, so unless i felt my cell vibrating, i would often think it was somebody else's phone.
