I always liked the simplicity of the X-Files theme song, myself.

I think I have a shitton of cowboy bebop on my computer somewhere if you want it.

Could be wrong though, I do have a boatload of music I picked up here and there.


Yeah, 60 songs. If you're interested.

On my phone so I can't look up videos, but I'm going to go on record as saying the "Airwolf" theme. And maybe Miami Vice.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9Q3orQhEcAI had only heard this song on Seinfeld before. I can't be the only one, can I?!?

My favorites not yet mentioned:

Lupin the Third (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OOoTQS05eA)
Angel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8g4yJjUSw38)
Justified (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bApqT2dC5Ww)
Batman (the good one) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEx9r5enZsk)
Gargyoles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oORfIQWIwuo)

And I'm really embarrassed to admit I remember this theme as being amazing from when I was 9 years old:

Damn, I'd rep this too. Sweet version. Coming from a guy who used to play flute (decades ago), that's amazing.

Sadly I can remember the lyrics to basically any song I've ever heard about 5 times so I could sing this without even clicking on the link. I have never found a way to make any money off this "skill".

Yeah yeah, old school. Some of the ones that I like these days are innovative.

Like Weeds. I can’t post all the versions of that because they do a new artist every show. The original is by Malvina Reynolds (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_2lGkEU4Xs).

Same thing with the Wire when it ran. Tom Waits - Way Down in the Hole (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xw2MjRcVO4g).

Knight Rider -- This is like if Mute City existed in real life and needed a theme song. Knight Rider is also a documentary, go ask Mr. Feeney. Also, Kitt is a Cylon.

The A-Team. No explanation needed.

...

And the Hiru no Tsuki outro from Outlaw Star.

This from the guy whose initial "contribution" to the thread is the theme song for Community...

That song isn't worth a kernel of corn in the shit that the Thundercats' theme song left on your chest.

As always, shut the fuck up.

It's not really my favorite, but I just realized that I know all the words to the theme from Green Acres. =\ I can't remember what people I met a week ago look like or what their names are, but I remember the theme from a show I haven't watched in almost two decades.
