Telephone Songs

By on April 1, 2006

It’s a long time since I posted anything in the Boredom Killer’s category.So here is something you can try when you are really really bored – Composing songs with your Landline telephone set. 🙂

If your phone supports Tone dialing then you can create various sounds by pressing the keys. With some effort you can create recognisable tunes with them too.

Here are some examples :-

Happy Birthday

1 1 2 1 6 3
1 1 2 1 9 6
1 1 # 9 6 3 2
9 6 9 3 6 3

Mary Had a Little Lamb
3 2 1 2 3 3 3
2 2 2 3 9 9
3 2 1 2 3 3 3
3 2 2 3 2 1

Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

1 1 9 9 # # 9
6 6 3 3 2 2 1
9 9 6 6 3 3 2
9 9 6 6 3 3 2
1 1 9 9 # # 9
6 6 3 3 2 2 1

More songs are available over here .

Btw, don’t expect them to be very melodious

    I don’t think I ever sat on the phone and tried to do this. I had some weird drawing and music Mario program on super Nintendo but not never did this.
