Top 10 TV show theme songs that will change your life (part 1)
Welcome to part one of a two part series, "Top 10 TV show theme songs that will change your life". Today we will be counting down to number 6. These themes were all voted on by me. This is not a democracy. Swollen Pickles is a dictatorship. All ten of the themes listed here have touched me in a special way. Let's hope they also touch you! So, let's begin...
10. He-Man
He-Man, the most powerful man in the universe. Defending the secrets of Castle Greyskull? Now my memory must be pretty bad, but what exactly were the secrets of Castle Greyskull again? I didn't think the fact that He-Man preferred guys was much of a secret at all. My favorite thing about the theme/intro is that it summarises the He-Man life story in under a minute! What does that tell you? He-Man really needed to get a life!
The He-Man theme is all about empowerment. Run outside, raise your arm in the air and scream "I have the pooooowaaahhrrrr".
9. Silverhawks
The Silverhawks were the gang given metal bodies and hawk wings to stop organized crime in the Limbo galaxy. A classic and kicking theme tune. The hawk sound effect is a nice touch. Very classy. In case you care, the guitar playing guy is country singing Col. Bluegrass, and that's no ordinary guitar! In the 29th century that's what they call a sonic guitar. Awesome.
8. The Care Bears
This theme is a classic for all the right reasons. It is down right irritating. I challenge you to listen to it 20 times in a row and not want to jam a screw driver in your ear at the end of it. It's sooooo cute I just threw up on my shoes. This theme will change your life through giving you a greater appreciation for the sounds of silence.
7. The A-Team
Just like the team themselves this theme is all balls and a worthy number 7. Sgt. Bosco Albert "B.A." Baracus seemed to have a bizarre 1980's case of tourettes. He was one crazy fool. This theme could only be better if Mr T busted some rhymes over the top of it. This one is complete with subtitles, granted, they aren't english subtitles, but they are still subtitles!
6. Thundercats
Snarf Snarf. Even in the 1980's the Thundercats had street cred. There theme proves that they were down with the biatches and ho's from the beginning. Thundercats also taught me that it's ok to have bad hair.
