Whenever a theme song from one of my top 5 albums comes up (seriously, i’ve replaced the CD twice, I wore it out so much. The first time was hard because I had to travel from store to store until one dude in a vinyl/CD store was like, “Oh yeah! I love that thing!” and pulled it out for me. The second time was in the age of Amazon, so super easy) Saturday Morning Cartoons Greatest Hits.
I can’t pin a name on it yet but that is a total rip off of someother patriotic/military song. Regardless, as you are a lover of easy jazz themes I’m calling you a liar. Spiderman would win the superhero lyrics award in your self identified music universe.
Ya got me. Although that one line in Captain America beats any one line in Spider-man. And now, since you mentioned another song from my favorite album-- The Ramone’s Spider-Man.
Durarara!!'s first OP, Uragiri no Yuuyake, is brilliant. (The second OP isn’t bad, but it doesn’t come close to UnY.) Once again, the full version is better…though in this case, it’d work as well, aside from being way too long.
For a completely different style (both the series and the OP)…Simoun’s OP, Utsukushikereba Sore De Ii…which, predictably, has a full length version, though I actually prefer the TV size here…the rockier instrumental bit near the end ruins the effect, IMO.
I’m thinking probably because, although it’s a great theme song, it isn’t a TV theme song. Unless one of the cartoons used it. As I remember it, there were two cartoons, Ghostbusters and The Real Ghostbusters. One was regular dumb kids mindless junk and the other one was pretty good. But I don’t remember which was which.
