    I haven't heard the entire album, but Kids is a pretty good tune, too.

    It fades out into nothing after the brilliant opening. Unfortunately 'Time To Pretend' is as good as it gets. I was very disappointed.

    Anyway, great choice of tone!

    I had the abridging bit from a remix of Dee Kline's I don't smoke as a ringtone on a previous mobile. Was cool, sounds of a woman making high pitched sexual moans to scratchy electronic music with piano samples.
    DJ Dee Kline - I dont smoke (da reefer).

    Always gets a nice/weird reaction when I leave my phone lying around especially in work.

    Just reminds me of good times thats why I have it. I would post a link but there is a load of versions on youtube and I have no sound in work to find the right one.

    :eek:

    Children of Bodom's cover of Bed of Nails for when the boyfriend rings and Nightwish Bye Bye Beautiful for everyone else.

    Amhrán na bhFiann. Well the first four lines anyway.

    Vibrate only for the past 3+ years.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,111 ✭✭✭MooseJam


    whatever was on it when it came out of the box

    I have "Kyle's Mom is a Bitch" by Cartman from the south park movie for workmates's numbers, 40 Miles by Congress for undesignated caller groups, Demonstrate by UB40 for my best mate, Louder Than a Bomb by Tiga for other mates' numbers and SE's old phone tone for family. All in mp3 format. The only thing I'm slightly ashamed of is using the CTU ringtone from 24 for text alert tone, but I can't find a good short tone to replace it with...

    I am not defined by my ringtones, I just put on music I like with a good intro that suits as a ring tone...sorry if that offends people sensibilities. Additionally death to glomobi. Anyone who pays for tones should be shot.

    Agree completely. I never understood that ... the most cursory examination of the Terms & Conditions, and the outrageous prices for such zany ring-tones as "Crazy Frog belches in the Key of E#" would put any sane person off. (I do like that Bananaphone one though)

    For anyone who gives a hoot my ringtones are currently

    Intro to Miss Dy-na-mit-ee-ee, for mrs trout
    Heigh-Ho song, for family (it's an in-joke).
    Motorbike sound, F1 sound, Guitar solo, or Blue's piano for my close pals (each one makes sense for the caller)
    Generic dogs barking, for my generic mates
    Generic deskphone for workmates
    Meltdown alarm for the on-call phones in work (how apt)

    Old style bell ringing, only because there's no "ring ring" tone on my new phone. I despise musical ring tones, death to all those who make me listen to their bangin' choons when their phone rings. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,980 ✭✭✭trout


    Calm down Grampa Zaph. Don't soil yore shorts. ;)

    I'll make sure the young'uns put their phones on silent, so as not to upset you.
