Members DRW50 Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 Love this. It's so VERY VERY VERY 80s, everything that was good about that decade. Kim Carnes eat your heart out. Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 I think I prefer this more classically arranged version: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/J2LlUzOH4fE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beebs Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 My fave was the 92-95 Loving theme. Y&RWorldTurner, you're absolutely not alone in loving that one. I also loved OLTL's 1995-04 theme, though I find it decidedly too urban for a soap not set in a big city like NYC or something. I always thought it'dve been better off being saved for The City, or if RH had continued on, use it for that show. But that's just me. I also really liked AW's 81-86 theme. it struck me as a good update of the original interlocking rings theme, and though I grew up with it, would've been better in the long haul than the 87-96 cheese.

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 Easily one of my top five soap themes. There's actually a version of it on iTunes. And yes, I have it . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-53s_1bdC5k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 And screw the haters, the Jazzy EastEnders theme is wonderful. It may not fit the show itself, but I love it. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Sw09kRP0xLk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/txW7l78yLB0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I thought the final season theme was too brassy and mariachi and out of touch with the times. That strong drum beat of the original they brought back for the Back to the Cul-de-sac opening, now I loved that! http://youtu.be/ogBNjimAAQk?t=2m10s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted August 20, 2012 Webmaster Share Posted August 20, 2012 Although I like the shows current theme, I don't mind this one. Sounds more current than the year it represents, ironically, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Here's a longer SB theme. VERY 80s midsection here . http://www.80stvthemes.com/ra/SANTABARBARA.ra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 That's great too - I can see why you prefer that. Speaking of Edge - I love the closing music to the Edge of Night in the late 70s and their 80-83 videos. saynotoursoap made some awesome videos I've watched so many times. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8uaKNjgS6E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtWRlF0Me4M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beebs Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Please register in order to view this content Love this version of SFT's theme as well. Wish they'd kept this theme when they updated the visuals a year later, as the latin "magical title in the sky" theme was god-awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I have no idea why this one was so short-lived. I think it's awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB4ZwnYkrQw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I like jazzy Eastenders too. I LOVED this opening and theme, my favorite part is the breakdown at :18. Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Susan Hunter Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 I think the Days of our Lives theme is beautiful and holds up after almost 50 years. I prefer the original before they redid it in the 90s, but it is still incredibly beautiful. The orchestrated version of the original Another World theme is another favorite of mine. I loved the theme they used in the closing credits during the final years of The Doctors. Sunset Beach's original theme is another favorite of mine. Loved the sax.

Members SFK Posted August 20, 2012 Members Share Posted August 20, 2012 Oh, I loved this one! I used to get gome mid show so I first heard the closing and I couldn't wait to hear what they'd probably done to the opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
