My Top 6…TV theme songs

Posted on March 28th, 2007 by Andy

I’m not entirely sure this will make it to six but here goes…

  • Jacky – White Horses
    I remember loving this show although don’t ask me what it was about and maybe I only loved the theme song and one other aspect of the show (young teenage boys think like that). Britta Phillips & Dean Wareham do a lovely version on their new album - and there’s also a French version they’ve recorded as well although I’ve not heard that as yet.
  • Nerf Herder – Buffy the Vampire Slayer Theme
    I’ve watched a hell of a lot of BtVS over the last couple of years - and I mean lots and lots and lots and I still haven’t got bored of drumming on my legs during the theme tune - which I guess means that it’s a tune I’ll never get bored of.
  • Scooby Doo, Where Are You - David Mook
    Timeless - it’s always jarring to catch a Scooby Doo that doesn’t have the classic theme song. I also am quite fond of all those bubblegummy chase scene songs they had.
  • Roobarb Theme - Johhny Hawksworth
    This is just brilliant - it pops into my head at completely random moments and always makes me smile!
  • Quincy Jones – Ironside
    This, rather than being "timeless", is just so beautifully of its time!
  • Futurama Theme - dunno but probably Christopher Tyng
    Another one, like BtVS that I don’t seem to get bored with.

OK - I made it and I’ve missed out plenty…
