    Utah Saints - What Can You Do For Me







    Way too repetitive. With a 6 minute runtime a song needs to be more diverse than doo doo dah dah on loop to hold my attention. SKIP.

    its-on-like-donkey-kong.gif



    Ok seeing as you're such good sports I'm going to do a double round reveal tomorrow starting from 7pm...

    So that's our TV Themes and Our Driving Miss Walrus Rounds....


    Will post the TV Themes that would have done well shortly and then that's it from me tonight!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    OMG kinda wishing I spent more time on some of my other categories now, wondering what else I submitted :confused::eek:... Well like any good SHEEP if you peak early the only way is down... :pac:


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Funnily enough the best TV themes for me are (mainly) for kids TV shows. They’re like the old TV ad jingles, get stuck in your head and remain there forever… surprisingly, very few of you went down this route…

















    So did you go for something like the above? Or down a different road....


    See y'all at 7pm tomorrow!!!

    Electric Nitwit

    Drive it Like You Stole it - Sing Street



    This is a cracking entry, would you believe I hadn’t seen Sing Street :eek: This entry basically changed that – what a CRACKING movie. Loved it. Anyways I just loved this a little bit more than the others in the top 3 which allowed it to pinch the win in this category.

    (Werewolf players may understand what my rambling about it on Sunday evening last was now finally :pac: )
    9f90df7a1cc7b96410a34527bdecbe00.gif

    WHOO-HOO!! :D
    Double win if you hadn't seen the film and enjoyed that too

    What a round to win, I'm not a big one for musicals :p
    I love Sing Street though, class film and this song is a cracker

    Oh, another round coming? 90s, my speciality...

    Faithless – Salva Mea

    Faithless are unequivocally 90s, no doubt about that. This tune is an absolute banger in parts… I do feel the runtime is unnecessary though, there’s an awful lot of faffing around to get to the meat of the product. Enjoyable, but just a little bit too long.
    Ha ha, and back down to earth :p

    Like you say, very 90s. It was between this and another for Kol's late 90s dance so I've had this on a lot recently. I love this song, think it's Faithless' best by a mile. The run time was always a gamble but the shorter single edit is nowhere near as good, it deserves the full ten minutes for me, I love the slow build and the ebbs and flows :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,485 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Will Firefly fly high tonight if entered :p


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro

    TV Themes coming your way at 7pm!

    In 13th place with 4 points


    The purple tin


    Tangerine Dream - La Parc LA (Streethawk theme)






    Little bit too generic for me, with no big payoff or anything. It’s decent, but not brilliant imo.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    In 12th place with 5 points

    Sawduck


    Total Drama Island - Theme Song







    Never heard of this show, it’s a decent theme mind.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    In 11th place with 6 points

    Irish Aris


    The Dandy Warhols - We Used To Be Friends (Veronica Mars)







    Never watched Veronica Mars but did recognise the song. It’s grand, a little bit underwhelming for a theme imo but not bad at the same time.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    Back driving this week... any chance of a late revision??? ;)

    :D

    It's interesting, when I entered I struggled to think of driving songs, but being in the car again (for 10+ hours) this week after not driving for 7+ weeks I suddenly have a host of better (IMO) inspiration... Will be curious how my original choice did.

    Natasha Bedingfield – Unwritten (The Hills)







    A nice little track, I do like some of Natasha’s stuff. Never seen The Hills mind but a good choice for a theme.

    Barna77


    Neon Genesis Evangelion Intro







    Some nice anime action up next. Haven’t heard of this show. Dragonball Z has a cracking theme too, as do a lot of the anime shows in fairness….


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,485 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Do Natasha and Daniel Bedingfield make music anymore?

    I am a fan of both, some great catchy tunes

    The Racoons - Closing theme







    Nice 80s classic next, good call pushing on the nostalgia there. I do remember being hooked watching the ending credits of this show which is quite rare these days.

    You should check it out. I'm no expert in anime but I found it gripping. It is a complete and utter mindfúck, though.....but in a good way (mostly).

    Pratt & McClain - Happy Days







    Sunday Monday Happy Days! Tuesday Wednesday Happy Days! Ah you get the point. I’m intrigued that you sent a different version to the theme but it’s still great obviously. Familiarity again an obvious issue. But still worthy of a higher ranking imo.

    I had another song lined up and this was a last minute change.

    Watching Dragon Ball super and it has a catchy intro too, but man Evangelion has the catchiest song ever. Happy song for a "depressing" show.

    I didn't know it was so popular in Japan, like even their army band has performed it :D

    Two great soundtrack albums for a great quirky show, RDJ (Ironman) can sing

    I thought it was getting a reboot set around Ally's daughter

    Angel Opening Theme








    Short, sweet and to the point. Does exactly what is necessary very well though, I do enjoy this theme a lot. Angel is great, again a very under-rated show.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    And that brings us to our remaining 6….


    ShaneU - he likes to live dangerously, you see ;)

    fixXxer - another walk on the wild side for fix.. is it a good walk or is he walking the plank though?

    Necrina - second appearance here for Necrina, will this one be as joyful as her first round appearance?


    Deja Boo - second time in a row for Deja, will she fare better here... or worse?


    JP Liz V1 - same for Liz, better, worse... or the same as before?



    And….



    Electric Nitwit - previously won the musical category, will it be a second victory? Will he ever be online at the same time as the reveal to find out? :pac::pac:

    Glad you likes, I'd already used Cold Case on Rikand and CSI NY somewhere else so this was next to come to mind :pac:
    I love this show and have always had a soft spot for the theme, even more so than the Buffy one. I did a full in order rewatch of both these shows... was it last year??? And I still love them :D
