I just downloaded a few songs. I got Cars by Gary Neuman, Back In Black by AC/DC, Moving In Stereo by the Cars and the creepy Exorcist piano theme song... What about you guys?

I have what sounds like a Muzak version of "Helter Skelter" by an old group called the Beatles. It's so bad that I've started answering my phone withing three notes just to cut down on the embarassment. My buddy has one of the phones that allow actual songs. He uses "Wild Summer Nights" from Eddie & The Cruisers.

Devolution here,
Cindy, the name of that song is Tubular Bells. My ringtone is "I don't like Monday's" by the Boomtown Rats. On older phones I had a few different things. The Transformers theme. The HeMan theme.
WE are DEVO

I never even heard of such a thing??
What is it?? Where do you get it? How does it work, cause it sounds cool.
Our phone plays some goofy sounding stuff when it rings. But not a song.... Posted by PaulShrimpton (Member # 1022) on :
I've got possibly the only 80s song that sounds OK on a monotone phone - The Model by Kraftwerk.
Posted by deathbystereo80 (Member # 2005) on :
The problem I have with using songs as ringtones is that I very often I miss the phone ringing, because it just blends in with the surroundings (except when walking in a forest with no people around you). So I've gone back to using a very "telephonish" typical sound.

I have like a virgin as my ringtone at the moment, but i also have material girl love cats and especially for you.
Posted by ValleyCat (Member # 1322) on :
My phone plays Soothing Beach Music and everyone is like that is such an awesome ring.
If I could pick a song to make my ring, it would probably be "If You Were Here" from Sixteen Candles.

Which site is the best to obtain info on downloading ringtones?
Posted by ValleyCat (Member # 1322) on :
JLP there are places to download ringtones all over the internet, however my cell phone is from cingular and you can just go to there website. Pick your new ringtone for like $1.99 and they will download it to your phone number. I just checked it out and wow, they have some cool 80's movie choices.
Danger Zone - Top Gun What A Feeling - Flashdance Ghostbusters - Ghostbusters I'm Alright - Caddyshack Peter Gunn - Sixteen Candles Pretty In Pink
I've got sweet child of mine on my phone as well as thunderstruck!

Wow I just got a new cingular phone today and I went to Valley's post above about 80s ringtones, I am torn between Girls Just Want to Have fun, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, and Ghostbusters!!!! I am going to have to do a little thinking on this one.!!
Posted by ERIC 31 (Member # 1793) on :

Posted by kat27 (Member # 3979) on :
I decided to go for the ultimate: ask the brits about this one but I have the 'Eastenders' theme.

I have Talk Dirty To Me by Poison DR Feelgood by Motley Crue & Lay It Down by Ratt
Posted by StevenHW (Member # 509) on :
I would never put an 80's song --- or ANY song that I like --- into my cellphone as a ringtone!
I think it tends to trivialize and degrades my love for a certain song. So, I don't use them.

I think Steven has seen one too many Burger King Commercials. Can you tell I'm still miffed about "Melt With You" getting turned into an ad for a cheeseburger. I haven't eaten at Burger King since that commercial came out.
Posted by Missie (Member # 2186) on :
I used to have Lips Like Sugar, Do They Know It's Christmas, and Tales From The Crypt, but that was when I was with AT&T. Now I'm with Cingular, and they only have the Tales theme, but it sounds like crud.
Cingular has the Bond theme and I want to get it, but just I haven't DL'd it yet.
I would love to have some old Duran Duran, something OTHER than Rio or Hungry Like A Wolf.
Ooohh...I bet there are some cool Depeche ring tones...

I have polyphonic ringtones, which sound more like the originals. I've got two of the best 80s instrumentals on my phone. My favorites:
Dynasty by Bill Conti Masters of the Universe by Shuki Levy and Haim Saban
