Moviefan 1238 Report post Posted January 19, 2013 Do you find yourself humming away to your favorite tv/movie theme song, one of my favorites was always the theme to Mash until last year I always thought it always to be just an instrumental piece. After hearing the lyrics it became one of my all time favorites melodies. I know the topic is dark. What are some of your favorite theme songs? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedriver 6179 Report post Posted January 19, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRni5_8Y3-A&NR=1 The scene from the original movie MASH. It always the first theme song that comes to mind. Additional Comments: The other theme song that I love to sing to myself, even had it as a ring tone for a while. Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show. Always brings a smile to my face.

Mikeyboy 27113 Report post Posted January 19, 2013 Wow. That song brings me back. That had to be one of my favorite shows of all time. So funny, yet so thought provoking and meaningful. Such powerful statements on the futility and uselessness of war, yet with such intense humor that you actually hurt your sides laughing. I didn't actually see the movie until later, but I grew up with the show. The song does bring out a lot of emotion for me, even today. Thanks for that.

Winnipegcub 21293 Report post Posted January 19, 2013 I loved this song and if often stuck in my head. I was a big fan of the show too. And in fact made a stop in the original Bull & Finch pub in Boston that the show is based on and had a few pints. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just turn up the volume and play it again and again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A****y E*e 6175 Report post Posted January 24, 2013 I'm not sure if it's my favourite theme song, but the one that always gets stuck in my head is the song for CSI. It's pretty cool to have The Who sing your theme song :) This is the full version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdLIerfXuZ4 "Whooooo are you? Who who? Who who?"

castle 38816 Report post Posted January 27, 2013 Anything John Williams has come up with is gold to me (Jaws, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, etc). But in particular his Superman theme is probably my all time favorite movie theme. In my opinion it's the best and most recognizable character theme ever conceived. I'm super bummed that the new movie, Man Of Steel, will not feature this music. And on a similar note Danny Elfman's '89 Batman theme would have to come in a close second http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38lWxFNzCas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
