What's Your Ringtone?

Redirect me if it's been asked before....

Mine is old now - not having a PC at home it's not easy for me to change it without paying. Still makes me smile when it rings though:

Tony Christie - Is this the Way to Amarillo?

I got rid of my cell, but I think a great one would be Lily Tomlin's operator character saying "One ringy dingy. Two ringy dingy..."

I have a couple of different tones. For general incoming, it is Genesis' "Dance on a Volcano" from "Trick of the Tail". When my eldest son calls, it is "The Twilight Zone Theme". When my wife calls, it is "Witchy Woman".

I was just getting into mangling my own MIDI files for ringtones and uploading them with a hacked loader program for my Nextel when we decided to buy a house. I haven't done much of anything for fun since then.

I'm afraid I'm on beep beep beep as well. I was thinking of putting the Bucky Dent home run call on but I figure I'd tire of it soon and go back to beep...

I desperately wish my phone had a (very) simple beep-beep-beep noise. As a general rule, ringtones bug me. But since paying for one bugs me even more, mine is currently "Waltz of the Flowers" from the Nutcracker Suite, the least offensive one that came with the phone.

A cheesy synthesized version of Megadeth's "Angry Again". But it's cool -- it's the entire song, complete with the solo. I hear it so often that when the actual song came on the radio, it weirded me out.

When I take it off my finger and drop it on the desk, it just makes sort of a clicky sound. The silver's too soft I guess.
