Members MichaelGL Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 I did like the closing theme for the Satin sheets opening of OLTL. That's about all I liked about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Saving ATWT Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 ATWT always had bad openings aside from the final two. The music was finally good and I liked the simple retro still shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 This is my favorite soap opening ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8_KfMKarjU&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 My favourite music from the white theme era was the first, used only during the 25th anniversary week in which it debuted. How it started out slow for the first few notes, and then morphed into a rather stripped down more mid tempo version of the one that would be used after. I just always thought the white opening visually looked cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Days22 Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 Other than the Days opening for its longevity, this is my fave also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 I agree with all of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'm not sure if you found it yet, but here it is. I always found the beginning of that opening sequence jarring with the sound effects of the beacon. Again, another so-so opening theme, that has a good closing theme IMO.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 I actually don't mind that opening, but mainly because I love any version of that melody (that one's not my fave by any means...) In fact both it and the 80s theme, in any of its variations, are neck and neck as fave soap theme songs for me, music wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 Yeah, that's the slow, smooth jazz version of Hold on to Love I was talking about. I guess some people call it the Island version? Because of the time I got home from school, I actually thought they'd only changed the closing theme and it was about a week or two before I caught the opening. SOD dissed it and said they were glad the show brought back an uptempo version, but the new uptempo version sounded like pure cheese with that rock guitar and those weird video game frenzied trickling water sounds.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 Yes I hated the new guitar addition. I guess they call it Island theme cuz it kinda has a bosa nova bongo drum thing going? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 It's like THE EDGE OF NIGHT: something that would work as well today as it did back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted September 14, 2011 Members Share Posted September 14, 2011 Not I. The "island version" I'm talking about - which played maybe 5 times and is probably unavailable on YouTube - used Rastafarian (sp?) drums in the background.
