"Zippity-doo-da" would be my idea of a good ringtone. It's bright, distinctive, classic and undeniably Disney.

Or that "whistle" when you put your ticket in the machine at the turnstile.
Ohh. that is a good one. I suggest "Zip-a-dee-do-da", it deffinetly makes you think of Disney, gets your attention quick, not to anoying, and makes you smile. :D
Yes, this is my happy place! Well, when not in my happy place.

It's official, The family is visiting Disneyland in October!

I am using the Epcot Entrance Song right now, it works good and fires up right away.

What I meant about too quiet, most of the songs start off with an intro or soft volume then crank up 30 or 40 seconds into the song. This wont do due (ha ha I said "do due") to the reason that the caller will hang up by the time I actually hear the ring.
spaulo wrote:"Too Quiet" has a lot more to do with the phone itself and the quality of the MP3 you use, than the song itself.
I always edit the song using Audacity and crank up the gain/volume and crop it to the part I want. My phone actually Kicks the MP3s out really loud, but a wimpy part of a song is just too quiet to use.

Sidenote, I was in the grocery store and my phone did the when you wish upon a star song loop and I got some strange looks, like I thought they were going to ask me to decorate thier houses or something....

I suggest Hakuna Matada. The point of DL is to escape the real world and loose your worries. Hakuna Matada does the trick for everyone
Do you think have enough time to go the bathroom before the next show?

It's the monorail for me... "please stand clear of the doors...."

It has been the start of many a great disney holiday and just makes me think of disney. Having said that my (21 year old!) brother just recieved a toaster for his birhtday which plays the Mickey Mouse March, and i must admit that is a very disney defining tune. :D

Call me nuts but the clicking as the boat reaches the top of the lift on Pirates I would love to have as a ring tone. :)

The music played on Main Street. Now that is Disney.

When you wish upon a star, that's the ticket... but Zip-a-dee-doo-da, that also does it... just try whistling it, everyone will associate it with Disney. Now if you want something that only Disney fans will recognize... like your own little club, try something like "Turkey in the Straw." (steamboat willie)

For me, the railroad's bell really gave me the chills when I was a kid... Still does!

The Mickey Mouse club song, that is almost as Disney as you can get.

While not as recognizable for most, I find the TTA and Star Tours chimes are definitely Disney, and might be less grating than ringtones. I know I use them for my IMs at least.

I think "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" is a good one, I love that one on my phone and it sounds pretty good

I'd also have to agree with Grim Grinning Ghosts also provides a good one, but I think that one is only recognizable to people who have been to a Disney park, I think a memorable sound would evocate the image of Disney even if they haven't been to a park.

What about the monorail, "Please stand clear of the doors, Por Favor Mantenganse alejado de las puertas?"
