Question of the week: What is your favorite TV theme song?

[Lyubka]

Hello music lovers! 💃
Hope y'all having a nice weekend! 🌴🌞

It is 'the official lazy season' so I believe most of you spend a lot of time bathing in the sun, pouring drinks, partying all around 🎉 and lastly - watching sitcoms. This never gets old. No matter the season - there's really nothing better than a good television theme song.  Which is your favorite one? 

Here is mine. Anytime I hear this song I feel relaxed, I feel calm, I feel like somebody will always be there for me! This song is a really cool little pop tune!

Because.. 'When it hasn't been my day, my week, my month or even my year... 
They'll be there for me!'

Nice question @Lyubka .

These are always good to listen to because, for me at least, I get caught in the nostalgia and a rollercoaster of emotions.

I'll have to go with

The Office 

by Geek music.

I'll never forget my good ol' friends in Dunder Mifflin.

Let me digress a bit and share another one

It talks about The Office as well even though it's not an official theme song.

Take care 🎧🖤

Good question @Lyubka 

As my favorite TV series is the famous "Twin Peaks" realized by David Lynch, my preferred TV soundtrack is coming from it. I could have chosen different songs but I will stay with the Main Theme composed by Angelo Badalamenti.

Hey @Lyubka,

Very nice question indeed 🙂 Here is my pick - the theme song from the TV series  "La Casa De Papel" a.k.a. "Money Heist".

This isn't a relaxing song by any means, nor is the show..BUT the theme song for Mad Men is paired so darn well with the general mood of the show I just had to share. On top of all that, RJD2 is a DJ I've been following since I was a kid so that's extra cake on the icing (because the cake is the good part, everyone knows that, right?!).

Hi Lyubka!!
Good day! 🌞

Recently my favorite TV series song is the famous "Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode, included in Netflix's Halston soundtrack

Oh God, so freaking many.

If I had to pick just one, it would have to be the Dr. Who theme tune. When I was in high school I'd pretty much listen to that thing and play it on the keyboard 100 times a day, every time somebody online would release a new tweak of one of the 80s  or 70s  versions of the theme. 

Also in the world of sci-fi: The Star Trek TOS and TNG themes, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy  (BBC mini-series) theme

Then in the world of sitcoms: Cheers, The Simpsons, Futurama, How I Met Your Mother, That 70s Show 

and lastly in dramas: Magnum, P.I. (the original), Knight Rider (also the original), & Buffy the Vampire Slayer

For me I think it has to be Keeping Faith, I fell in love with Amy Wadge's voice, the song and the star!

My favourite theme from TV is a complex rhythmic song by none other than Lalo Schifrin:

Thanks Frank, scrolling through your post I spotted Donna Summer so just had to have a blast of I Feel Love, disco favourite !!

[scarletvvitch]

I don't think I have a favorite theme that isn't a song itself. I love the Arcane theme song "Enemy" by Imagine Dragons, and "You're Dead" from What We Do in the Shadows.

[MadmanOnWheels]

Of course it was not recorded specifically for the show, but my favorite show theme song (with lyrics) is this:

https://open.spotify.com/track/28My9WIdK2Qwra6u4ENAcf?si=cBuf3UpeQQ2pLzS1OKjQbA&utm_source=copy-link

If you haven't seen the show, you should definitely check it out, if you like great shows. You'd be wondering why you hadn't, before.
