I have disc of a different Sardinian Tenores team, and the notes say "the singing is characterized by the sounds of the natural landscape -- sheep bleating, cows bellowing, the wind hissing..." and the music is not written down but passed orally through the generations.
I picked up the disc at a live performance, and, yes, it was stirring and fantastic and hypnotic.

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Oh Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks.

Also on the municipal level, as compared to the Sardinian hillside level, I saw this about "Se Telefonando:"
"The main theme of the song thrills around just three notes, taken from the siren of a police car in Marseilles."
