I have the “Piroriparopirirora” sound from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei , a very funny anime series.
The sound for a text message is Meru-chan’s “Mail, mail” sound from the same series.
This may or may not make things clearer.
Yeah, I’m a bit of a fangirl.
The Haunting Torgo Theme.
Me and a coworker both have bananaphone , an under-appreciated classic in my opinion.

Ethel Merman’s disco version of “There’s No Business Like Show Business…”
Nothing like listening to Ethel belt it out to let me know I am getting a call.

Jenaroph:
Doctor Who theme song.
Me too.
My wife has Darth Vader’s theme for her parents’ numbers.
The first few measures of Stevie Wonder’s “Sir Duke.”
I can set different ringtones for different callers, but I hardly ever get calls: my family and friends tend to use emails or text messages. My phone rings so infrequently that it always surprises me – and still makes me happy – to hear those opening horns.
Kenny Loggins - Danger Zone

I currently have the Murloc battle cry from WoW for my ringtone and the baby murloc gurgle for text messages. No, I know it’s not original, thanks.
normal calls - the “5 tones” from Close Encounters
wife - “Wipeout” intro, by the Surfaris
I have the New Super Mario Brothers theme.

That is hilarious. “You’re just a panty shot character. Show your panties already.”
That’s too funny, my daughter uses it for her MIL, actually her future ex-MIL. (wicked witch theme).
Main ringtone - Pictures of You by The Cure
Mom - Mother by The Police
Sibs and friends get songs from bands they like.

For most people it’s the theme from the Muppet Show. I have special ringtones for a few people though.
I use the jazzy theme from the Jeeves & Wooster TV series.
Ain’t No Sunshine By Bill Withers for generic
Realize by Colbie Caillet for my S.O
Push It by Salt n Pepa for my two best girl friends. (I crack UP every time they call cause it starts by basically yelling “Get up on This”)
I have Tune_Eurotrance for my normal ringtone.
Calls from my wife ring with Our House by madness (it was Everthing She Does is Magic for a while, I think I need to change it up again).
When I’m on call, the calls that ring to me have Tune_Down2Business
