Here's GoT to get us started. Not my favorite, but darn good.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Intriguing vocal intro and awesome transition to drum sequence. Hard to beat.

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Sopranos

Good one. Which, for some reason, always makes me think of this one:

I remember when I was a little kid I stayed up just late enough to hear the theme song for Dallas, which I loved. However, I have never watched an episode of Dallas. I would say the best song is the cheers intro. Most distinctive/identifiable for me now are MASH and GOT.

[DooBi]

Greatest American Hero

 

[BelemNole]

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

This one I genuinely love:

 

[HallofFame]

 

[lonestar50]

OK not the best but loved it as a kid

 

[soybean]

 

[jasonrann]

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

More beautiful music:

 

[LuteHawk]

Cheers....."Everybody Knows Your Name"

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Peter Gunn

Definitely in the oldie-but-goody class.

 

[h-hawk]

This was not the original theme song. Well into the run of the series, they hired Jerome Moross who had written the classic score for The Big Country.

 

[SpyderHawk]

 

[FSULongM]

 

[FSULongM]

You just can't beat those horns...what a classic

 

[Titus Andronicus]

I did not know that Johnny Western was still around!

Ballad of Paladin Have Gun Will Travel

 

[FSULongM]

OK for a modern-ish one. . .

 

[CAhawki]

Shameless

 

[SeaPA]

 

[Bonerfarts]

 

[soybean]

 

[Titus Andronicus]

This one might be a little obscure, but I like it anyway:



Everything/everyplace in that show looks so cold. The music seems to add to the mood.

 

[ping72]

Man in the High Castle. Not an original, but chilling version.

 

[Hawk-A-Doodle-Doo]

Spyder took several of Doodle's Top 5. Here's another one.
