What's the WORST TMNT theme song? - Page 2

*plastroncafe* · 03-07-2014, 12:09 PM

I had to go with 2k3's original, because only the theme tripped my Contact Embarrassment trigger, where as the entirety of TNM did.

*Bry* · 03-07-2014, 01:10 PM

Oh man. There are a few truly good theme songs in there (the original 1987 one is a classic, of course, and the 2012 theme is a solid re-imagining).

The 2003 series had some rough ones. The original (and its variations) was kind of obnoxious and grating, but not... terrible? Certainly not good either, but it grew on me a bit over time. The Fast Forward theme is maybe marginally better from a musical standpoint, but the lyrics and character quips are pretty embarrassing. I'd say that Back to the Sewer easily had the best theme song of that run. (But maybe I'm alone on that one?)

But... I think I have to go with The Next Mutation for the worst. It is a mess.

*BabyTurtles* · 03-07-2014, 01:17 PM

had to look up the next mutation theme cause I never heard it...

I take it back....this is the worst theme song......how do I re-vote?

Went Back to the sewers although I'm bias.

Wow. I'm surprised that so many people didn't like the Fast Forward theme song. I thought it was pretty catchy. I expected that Next Mutation would run away with this one. But Fast Forward is right there with it.

No you're not alone, for me BttS had the best song of 2003's series either.

OT / Fred Wolf version is really bad.

BUT: the GERMAN OT HERO TURTLES version is really cool !! Sung by Frank Zander.

Nameless · 03-07-2014, 03:43 PM

i voted next mutation simply cause it is the worst of the bunch that i have heard. OT red sky being a close second.

ps loved the german version of hero turtles that was cool to see

*BabyTurtles* · 03-07-2014, 05:34 PM

Just leave turtlefanforever alone guys...it's just his own opinion

it doesn't make it true for others.

*Cipher* · 03-07-2014, 10:27 PM

Woah, woah. There is nooooo reason why Next Mutation should be running away this this thread. The theme song is the best part of that show.

The only right answers here are the original 4Kids theme or Back to the Sewer. Go home, people. The Fast Foward theme is a low-runner as well, but it fits and is at least catchy. It's pretty painless.

**Jester** · 03-07-2014, 10:35 PM

I still vote for "We're the Turtles"...

Say it for yourself. FF for me it's waaaaaaaay more painful than the original 4Kids theme and BttS.

But that doesn't make them good either.

Technogeek29 · 03-07-2014, 10:45 PM

Not an option but I did like the endind theme to the next mutation

*The Stryker* · 03-07-2014, 11:14 PM

AH LOVE BEING A- AH LOVE BEING A- AH LOVE BEING A-

2k3 theme is the worst. Just for that part alone.

No no, the best part of next Mutation was Bonesteel.

Oh god! It got worse!

*blindturtle02* · 03-08-2014, 03:02 PM

Hmmm... Worst theme song in my opinion would have to be Fast Forward's. The show has actually grown on me. Still can't get into the theme song, however. I tried. I really did. I don't hate it. Just can't get into it. I actually like it without the lyrics, if that makes sense. I've listened to it via the DVD's main menu and the tune itself isn't half bad. The orchestral version played during key moments sounds cool too. So yeah, FF would have to be my least favorite. God, been forever since I watched Next Mutation. Gotta look that song up. It had a different theme for closing creds didn't it? Rap, I wanna say.
