What's the best TV theme song?
« on: April 27, 2005, 01:09:12 AM »
I'd say Waylon Jennings "Dukes of Hazard" song was one of the best......plus he narrated the series. Just a good song all around.

Others: The "Cheers" song was very good, The Partrige family song was good. The "Friends" song was well known, but sucked.

Anyone have others?

The Happy Days song too. ( it was a song way before Happy Days)

One of my very favorite theme songs would have to be the one for "Welcome back Cotter" written by John Sabatian of The Lovin Spoonful.

Another was the theme song to The Fat Albert Show, and if you don't like it.......Bills gonna teach you a thing or 2!

Favorite soundtrack: the one for "Bladerunner" by Vangelis

another soundtrack: the one for "Superfly" by Curtiss Mayfield

Gixer - we have a new series of Dr. Who and the daleks starting on Saturday. I think I'll record it. If you can read R2 DVD-RAM PAL format, I'll send you a copy.
