What sound or song is your ring tone?

It’s a song by 50 Cent called “Just a Little Bit.” What happened was I had a new phone that broke. So, I had to go back and use my old phone. I laughed when I realized it was this song that I had had on this thing. My newer phone just had one of the stock rings on it.

I’m kind of embarrassed. It has “Baby, where’d you get your body from” [“I Got It From My Mama”], by Will.i.am. I also have that 50 Cent/Justin Timberlake song “Ayo Technology” when my boyfriend calls. I only have three other different ring tones for the different people that call.

Well, my answer might disappoint you. It’s no crazy sounds or song. It’s just the sound of an old phone ringing. I didn’t want to have music or some loud, obnoxious thing. I went through all the options it had and I thought this one worked best.

I have Thievery Conspiracy on there now. Don’t ask me what song it is, though. It’s been on there for about four months. Before that it was “Punk Rocker” by Iggy Pop and the Teddybears. I’m not sure what song I had before, though. That’s going too far back.

I have Death Cab for Cutie, “When Soul Meets Body.” It’s been on there for two months now. Before that it was the Killers. I get bored and have to switch every four or five months. It’s usually $2.99 a song, which I don’t think is all that bad for a song you have and hear countless times during the day.

It always changes.... My wife never realizes it’s my cell phone. I’ve had our dog barking as the ring tone. She started looking towards the yard. For a few weeks, it was a fart sound. She hated that. Currently, it’s a sexy woman moaning. The other day she said if I don’t get rid of it, it’s going to be the only woman I hear.
