I know, I know, you have heard all you want about Christmas music in addition to actually HEARING the flipping songs all day long. But in the interest of full disclosure, I wanted to share a couple more thoughts about this topic.
I make a huge production of finding just the right song to be ringtones for all the people on my cel phone. Then I make another production of getting a separate default ringtone and finally! one more prodcution for the Caller Tune that you get to listen to while you are waiting for me to answer my damn phone. Not long after Halloween my Caller Tune gets switched to a Christmas song, because why not!
So I went through the list of songs available and I now have the cheesiest songs available for my ring tone and also for the Caller Tune. (Why on earth am I capitalizing Caller Tune? Is there a trademark thing?)
Which songs did I choose? Well, you could call me to find out one of them. Or you could be in the room with me when someone else calls to hear the other. But the fastest way would be for me to just get on with it and TELL YOU!
Caller Tune that you get to listen to when you call me is:
All I Want for Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey - now the ONLY reason I have this one is because of the movie Love, Actually. I adore that movie and really love when that little girl is singing this song. I like this even more than I dislike Mariah Carey, so that's something.
And drum roll . . . . . . . . .
The cheesey song I get to hear when you call me is . . . . . .
Last Christmas by Wham!
Hilarious, is what that is! What on earth could be funnier than George Michael singing Christmas carols?
It's a gorgeous day out there, get out and enjoy it. Finish up your holiday preparations, whether it be card writing, present shopping, gift wrapping and shipping or planning your menu. And sing some Christmas carols while you are doing your thing.
mmm kay, first, they are called ring tones and ringback tones. Caller Tunes, bah!
ReplyDeleteYou must spend an awful lot of cash changing all those songs around little missy.
And can we really call Last Christmas a Christmas Carol? I barely call it a Christmas song, and I like George Michael, that Andrew guy had no talent.
And I'm right with you on Mariah Carey. Do you think she spends all day looking at her reflection in shiny things?
heeheeheeheeheeeheeee
ReplyDelete*gag* Mariah Carey
duffylou,
ReplyDeleteI just looked at the T-Mobile page and yes indeed, they call them Caller Tunes. Maybe that is just a registered T-Mobile thing? I don't know.
They charge me about $1.99 each and they are good for one year. So that's not bad. Regular ringtones I usually get for free, but I have been known to buy one that was irresistable. : )
Mariah Carey is nasty and I just don't care for her.
And you are exactly right, Last Christmas is definitely in the Christmas SONG category, not a CAROL. Thank you!
I plan to do Christmas cards today, all the while listening to Christmas music!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I can't stand Last Christmas by itself as a so-called Christmas song, but as a ringtone...hilarious! I can't stand Mariah Carey, either. Evidently neither can my spell check because it is telling me that's not a real name. An alternative? Mareah. I have never seen Mareah before, but according to spell check it is correct and Mariah is not. Interesting.
ReplyDeleteGreat Christmas song! Probably the only one I like, 'cause I'm cranky during the holidays that way :(
ReplyDeletei love the song!
