This has bugged me for awhile now. What song did his super-mini-micro-tac cellphone play when it rang? I keep thinking its some classic 80s electronica, but I can’t quite place it. ---

C’mon, nobody knows the answer to this?! Its the scene right after he leaves the coalminer’s bar and is looking at a reflection of himself in a puddle. His agent calls and his tiny cellphone rings… ---

I remember knowing it when I heard it, but I can’t reall the tone now. Got a clip? Probably not…that was a stupid question. ---

This tone was standard on Nokia phones a few years ago (don’t know about now). It’s called “Samba.” The tune sounds like the background music from a vintage video game, but I can’t place it. Donkey Kong Jr, perhaps? ---

The guy who sat next to me for about a year had it on his cell phone…it is forever imbedded into my brain: Doo do do doo do, do doo do doo do… ---

Looks like I’m 12 years late but I just saw the movie and heard the ringtone. I couldn’t place it so I did a google search which lead me to this thread. It came to me while I was reading… it’s from Wonder Boy - when the angel flies with him in and he’s invincible. You’re welcome. ---

This ringtone is from a Latin freestyle music in the 80’s, so part of the music says" you belong to me baby can’t you see, you belong to me" but I have never know the name of the song nor the band that made it. ---

It’s amazing to me that your very first post here is about a song/ringtone from the movie _Zoolander_. Stick around, we don’t bite (unless you ask).
