It’s no surprise that your music playlist says a lot about you. The music you enjoy speaks volumes about your personality, emotions, and what’s currently going on in your life.
Another way to express yourself (and your musical tastes) is to set up a ringback tone for your cell phone line.
What exactly is a ringback tone? When someone calls you, they usually hear that monotonous “ring ring.” But a ringback tone treats callers to a song or audio clip instead while they wait for you to answer.
Ringback tones can make your cell phone conversations more interesting before they’ve even started. Based on the song you select as your ringback tone, you can warn your boyfriend you’re still upset or entertain your friends.
(Seriously, who wouldn’t crack a smile after dialing your number and hearing Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” start to play?)
Unsure what song to choose? Be sure to think about your ringback tone personality. Here’s our take on what your musical genre of choice says about you!
Pop – You embrace trends. You stay on top of the latest buzz with Twitter and Facebook, and you’re the people-pleaser of your crowd. You rock out to upbeat tunes like “E.T.” by Katy Perry.
Rock – You’re more creative than most people. A little impetuous, you are decisive but don’t always consider all the consequences. Try a little old-school AC/DC.
Alternative / Punk – You dance to the beat of your own drum. Curious and intellectual, you are sometimes known as the brooding one in your group. Try on “Just Say Yes” by Snow Patrol for size.
Hip-Hop / Rap - You have high self-esteem. Outgoing and energetic, you’re ready to take on all of life’s challenges. Try “Make Me Proud” by Drake.
Country – You’re a hard worker who loves to associate songs with life memories, which is why you’re all about the lyrics. You appreciate the simple things in life. Try out the aptly-named “Hello World” by Lady Antebellum as your ringback tone.
Comedy - You’re a prankster with a light sense of humor. I mean, how would you react if you dialed a number and then heard this? (It’s comedian Katt Williams doing “Hello, I’m Not Even Here”).
