nogtastic

And this for the classic early 60's sound

Grange Hill

I just found an old one!! ha ha

[i]Where Eagles Dare[/i]... epic, [i]epic[/i] opening sequence - even just watching it on YouTube makes me feel ten years old.

They don't make 'em like they used to...

You've missed a true great:

and of course, something for all ages

Not ashamed to say that this [i]still[/i] brings me close to tears, no matter how often I hear it. Utterly sublime.

633 squadron

or maybe something by Ennio Morricone

or perhaps this:

Gotta be this, god I feel old.It even has Eddie Van Halen playing the solo ferchrisakes!

Boon.

Quality theme tune... 🙂

hello sailor

The Sopranos theme tune is really good.

As is the 80s-episode-version of the Fringe theme.

Brake-neck - Member

Gotta be this, god I feel old.

Except that's "the Star Fleet Project" rather than the theme tune. You're looking for this,

And the opening credits for good measure,

God, I loved that show as a kid.

Easily (like by a ****ing million miles) the best movie theme ever

ah _tom_ cheers for reminding me, alabama 3 are on tour and playing here in a couple of weeks

Thanks Cougar but after hearing that you can understand why I picked the other one 😉

And anyway, you're all wrong.

Tangerine Dream FTW.

You know, I spotted the SF Project LP at an event last year and didn't have any means of buying the damn thing. I'm still cross about that.

STARFLEET! \o/

I loved the A-Team and Airwolf themes too. Also consider...

Yeah, the theme to Angel was a slow burn, took a while to grow on me. Firefly also. Love them both now, ofc.

I once did this pilgrimage drive over the Grand St Bernard Pass on an Alps climbing trip, whilst playing this music. Unfortunately, it was in a Renault Megane Senic not a Lambo Miura, with 2 other big hairy brit climbers, a girl and a mountain of kit.

Ooh, can't forget the girl cartoons...

Hannah Montana totally ripped off Jem and completely botched the job. -_-

Vangelis - Blade Runner.

Omg space fleet!
How about Jamie and the magic torch or Chorlton and the wheelies?

Omg space fleet!

Star Fleet. *slap*

How about,

RIP, Ewar Woowoo.

Hardcastle and McCormick, Magnum, Jamie and The Magic Torch. Most stuff by Rob Hubbard on the Commodore 64.

HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON!

Make way! Coming through!

Youse are all wrong and I am right so ner.

Can't believe it's not even bin suggested yet.

wot no Waterman??

I've got a softspot for this... Kind of fantastic when the brass comes in.

Or how about some more Final Fantasy

You're all wrong:

Can't beat a bit of the old Tour De France theme from Channel 4. Reminds me of summers as a kid; and so much better than the ITV tune.

Star Fleet for the win!
I got the box set for Christmas and have thoroughly enjoyed watching it all the way through. And singing to the theme tune!!

Hardcastle and McCormick, Magnum, Jamie and The Magic Torch. Most stuff by Rob Hubbard on the Commodore 64.

Hard to argue with that list, TBH.
