Favourite theme tunes (which have lyrics) Page 2

Ulysses, Ulysses
Flying through all the galaxies,
In search of Earth, flying into the night.

Ulyse-ee-ee-ee-es
No one else can do the things you do.

Ulyse-ee-ee-ee-es
Always flying in the purple blue

Ulyse-ee-ee-ee-es
Always fighting all the evil forces, bringing peace and justice to all.

It's me No No, small robot you know, friend of Ule-es-es
(repeat)

But I think my favourite is The Double Deckers theme tune.

Fresh Prince, innit.

Batman, I truly believe that counts as words.

Ulysses was very good. He looked a little like Eric Clapton.

Haha

I've definitely sang that one from time to time when no'ones been looking.

And I might be humming it right now, butthat's my business

Sons and Daughters
Love and Laughter
Tears of sadness and happiness
We will find out our Sons and Daughters
Are what we two were once about

Can anyone tell me what that was all about?

Minder.

Minder.

Nuff said.
It's the theme song that all others aspire to.

Why? Dinner's an acceptable word the lyricist was obviously hungry.

Some:
Maid Marian And Her Merry Men.
The Goodies (second version).
Bump The Elephant.

And The Vicar Of Dibley sets the tone for the show perfectly as well.

Maid Marian was such an all round classy show.

Knite Rider

The Royle Family
Birds Of A Feather
Game On

Cheers is brilliant. I never fast forward as it sets the mood perfectly.

that was one of the first theme tunes I learned to play on the piano. I still play it now.

Quote: Fred Sunshine @ July 13 2009, 9:01 PM BST

We've got some half-price cracked ice
And miles and miles of carpet tiles,
TVs, deep freeze, and David Bowie LPs,
Ball games, gold chains, whassa-names, and at a push,
Some Trevor Francis track suits from a mush in Shepherds Bush,
Bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush….
No income tax, no V.A.T.
No money back, no guarantee,
Black or white, rich or broke,
We'll cut prices at a stroke.
God bless Hooky Street,
Viva Hooky Street,
Long live Hooky Street,
C'est magnifique, Hooky Street,
Magnifique, Hooky Street,
Hooky Street — Hooky Street — Hooky Street.

Fantastic...never read those lyrics before and certainly never heard them correctly in the show.

Best intro ever: (One for the over-thirties)

MUSIC:
Funky, High energy seventies.

LIONEL STANDER: (VO)
This is my boss, Johnathan Hart. A self-made millionaire. He's quite a guy. This is Mrs H...she's gorgeous. She's one lady who knows how to take care of herself. By the way my name is Max. I take care of both of 'em. Which ain't easy, 'cause when they met...it was moider.
