5 Overlooked Ennio Morricone Songs to Turn into Ringtones
More proof that we live in a post-sellout culture: LG is planning to offer ten film songs from legendary composer Ennio Morricone as cell phone ringtones along with fifteen tracks that he is composing exclusively for LG. So, soon we'll have to get used to the fact that his legendary wahhh wahhh wahhhhh from The Good the Bad and the Ugly doesn't necessarily signal a showdown, and might in fact just be someone's mother calling. Apparently they are choosing 10 of his "best known" themes to convert into ringtones. Sadly though, "best known" is the just tip of the iceberg with Morricone, so take a second to listen to five amazing tracks from his more overlooked film scores that would all make killer ringtones. Then petition LG!
[As always, feel free to suggest your own - there are hundreds to choose from!]
"Driving Decoys" from Danger Diabolik
When your phone rings, your friends will immediately bust out into a funky 60's dance party...until the crazy sax and distortion comes in and blows all of their minds.
"Titilo" from Four Flies on Grey Velvet
Fine! Go ahead and have your funky 60's dance party! No crazy sax here.

How can you leave off Magic and Ecstasy from Exorcist 2: The Heretic?
It's the only song I will tolerate ruining a movie with because you were too stupid to not pay attention to the 20 things before the movie asking you to turn off your phone.
Oh, gosh, I've got to add "Magic and Ecstasy" from Exorcist II. It's Morricone at his most rocking. So good it was covered by the Residents and Snakefinger.
I was going for overlooked ones, not what is universally acknowledged as the best Morricone work of all time.
No, it's actually a really good call, I've watched the trailer many many times because it's probably the best use of music in any trailer, ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFspymGVZLY
But they're including the 1994 Love Affair, so I thought there was actually a pretty good chance that an Excorcist 2 cut would make it...We shall see.
See above
I always choose ringtones that are based on classical melodies. .
