I used to have the FF7 battle music as my ring tone. Because phone calls were random encounters. Certain ones got the boss battle music instead.

Hearing that randomly in public from someone else’s phone would have made me excited to see a kindred spirit. Closest I ever did see was someone using the victory music, but that would have been more appropriate as a hang up tone.

I should do that again. It’s funny because I think it was moving to a new phone and not wanting to figure out how to set custom ring tones that made me put it off until I forgot it, even though the phone that had it was a flip phone that I had to use a special connector to even hook it up to my PC and had to find a program to encode the song in the arcane format used by dumb phones and the phone that replaced it probably just needed me to drop the songs into the right folder or find out how to browse the file system when setting ring tone.
