The melody comes from Gran Vals, a solo guitar piece by Spanish composer Francisco Tárrega from 1902, with a short phrase later adopted by Nokia in 1994 as its default ringtone. Because early Nokia handsets were everywhere, that phrase became one of the most heard ringtones in the world during the mobile boom. This version returns the tune to guitar, its original instrument, which makes the cover feel both familiar and fitting for retro phone jokes and nostalgia edits online.
