Favorite Theme Songs
 
Theme songs are a huge part of almost every animated show out there. They are meant to hook us in, and stay with us afterwards. In a lot of these shows, the animation during the opening song is done better than the rest of the show.

What are some of your all time favorite TV show theme songs?


as far a lyrics and go I love the Intro to The Mask:


But when it comes to ambiance and instrumentals, i think its pretty hard to top this:

I also love the theme song from The Mask, for obvious reasons... :D
I also love:

Full version:

and this:

What... I loved the Duck-Universe shows as a kid...and still as an adult.

Shreddhead 04-08-2012 12:37 AM

I figured youd like that one ;)
And my god Ducktales! Some days that song will get into my head and stay there for weeks

The X-Men animated series intro was great. I also liked the techno Spider-Man intro from the 90s.

I forgot to mention the 2nd intro to the Iron Man animated series was awesome. The "I Am Iron Man" theme.

TMNT OT themes; Transformers OT theme song from seasons 3&4; also the Beast Wars theme

I prefer the GI Joe and Transformers movie themese to the TV counterparts.


Shreddhead 04-08-2012 01:50 AM

All such classics! does the Transformers Movie theme count?

Jester 04-08-2012 01:50 AM

Beat ya to it... :P

Shreddhead 04-08-2012 01:55 AM

Haha! ok How about a little Cowboy Bebop?

I like that one better, as well. The television theme was good, but the movie version added some extra energy, especially with that crescendo before the chorus.

Aside from Batman, Ducktales, and Darkwing, I also loved the following themes:




^^ This just screamed 80s.




^^ Can't forget this.



And, of course, the themes from the Ninja Turtles shows (before Fast Forward).

MikeandRaph87 04-08-2012 02:05 PM

I beat you with the Justice League instrumental theme song by 30 seconds! Eat krow! :P Seriously, its nice to see another fan of the show and the theme. Instrumentals go great with superheroes.

Agreed. Justice League was awesome!:tcool:

Shreddhead 04-08-2012 02:27 PM

Oh ya, i do really like the Justice league opening, and the Tick was a lot of fun "Duh Dweee da da da dweee dow!"

A few more to toss into the ring:
Inspector Gadget:


ANY of the MST3K opening themes:


And of course Mighty Morphin Power Rangers:

Any Kid that didnt play air guitar to that had no soul!

Cure 04-08-2012 02:29 PM

Phineas and Ferb.



END OF THREAD.

Jester 04-08-2012 02:29 PM

Here's the GI Joe theme in sync...sorry...:P

The one thing The Tick had that I liked was the Townsend Coleman/Rob Paulsen colalboration!

It may be nostalgia talking in light of learning of Thuy's death but long live the original six Power Rangers! I perferred one of ther action songs "Fight!" over the theme song:



Goes great with the dramatic cut scenes of Star Wars duels!8)

Shreddhead 04-08-2012 02:45 PM

Red Dwarf opening was great.

MikeandRaph87 04-08-2012 07:40 PM

Good ones, Jester. Go Green Ranger,go! is my second favorite PR song and my favorite ranger of all-time. Wish they could have found a way around the footage problem. The 2009 limited edition figure is my favorite non-turtle figure.:D

Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers? My mother has a video of my at the age of four dancing to the intro to black mail me.:oops:
