    If you had to pick a song to be your theme song like a wrestler or a tv show what would you pick or what would it be?

    Mine would be "Nobody does it better" by Carly Simon from the Bond film the spy who loved me.

    Michael Jackson - Billy Jean

    Times like this all a man can do is
    STRUT!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,477 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    The Piano - Michael Nyman is the closest a song has ever come to describing my particular breed of madness.

    But if it had to be something upbeat either Thin Lizzy's Chinatown or Jackson's Beat It.

    three pages in and nobodys mentioned "Shaft" i'm disgusted.

    However after saying that i must say I'd go for the original "Battlestar Galactica" theme.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,070 ✭✭✭hedgetrimmer


    Depending on mood...

    Summer in Dublin, by Bagatelle
    Been a While by Staind

    or for TV theme-tunesness

    The intro from Eye of the Tiger


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 42,361 Mod ✭✭✭✭Beruthiel


    well if we are talking about theme songs which best discribe us then it would have to be

    Where is My Mind
    the Pixes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 286 ✭✭Brerrabbit


    Hmmm... for general walking around; the Pink Panther theme

    For just rocking out and going mental; Feeder, Just a day

    For entering into a wrestling ring; Imperial march from star wars. or Jimmy eat world -Bleed American

    For singing in the shower/ bath/ car/ house/ work/ or whatever; Bohemian rhapsody

    I have a theme song going on in my head at all times, but its mostly whatever crap I heard on the radio last being repeated over and over...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,138 ✭✭✭✭Stark


    "I am body beautiful" for going to the gym :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,308 ✭✭✭✭Bard


    Turn off the lights and set off the pyro explosions for the start of METALLICA - AM I EVIL as I walk on stage. Hell yeah, baby! Slowly raise the lights as I slowly and moodily walk down the ramp, muscles rippling and an evil glint in my eye... and I'm in the ring when the guitar kicks in. More pyro's when the main riff starts.

    That's the way to do it. :)
