Ever get hooked on a tv song?
I heard the theme from Charmed and was totally taken. Then I heard a song on one of my soaps the other day and I took an hour to track it down. It was Martina McBride's song "Happy Girl". I get hooked on these songs and can't let go of them until I have tracked them down. How about you?

And that Ally McBeal song. haven't seen the show in so long, but I always sung along with it while the credits rolled.

I seem to really like listening to/singing along with themes from the sitcoms from the 80s. I guess they were on tv during my childhood and they bring back good memories.
I got a compilation cd with all the greats; Charles in Charge, Diff'rent Strokes, Growing Pains, Perfect Strangers (love this one!), Golden Girls, Family Ties, etc etc the list goes on
and later I got another volume in the same series (Television's Greatest Hits , released by TVT Records). This volume has newer stuff like My Two Dads, Full House, Mad About You, Twin Peaks etc etc
Objectively I know a lot of these tracks are pretty dumb, but I enjoy them anyway!
Re: Charmed
How Soon Is Now is a great song. It's been covered heaps though (even Tatu have done a cover!).

Meet Cathy who's lived most everywhere
From Zanzibar to Barclay Square
But Patty's only seen the sights
a girl can see from Brooklyn Heights--
What a crazy pair!
Current shows, I like the Futurama theme and Powerpuff Girls, both opening and closing tracks. I don't like the Smallville theme.
And that Tatu cover of How Soon is Now? is just about insulting, IMHO>

I always thought the theme for "The Dead Zone" was cool, and found out it was New Year's Prayer by Jeff Buckley - great song!

I'm going to miss hearing that song on Wednesday nights. I never have tracked it down, but I did hear it playing in the background at LS Ayres recently.

I like the Charmed song--sounds like The Psychodelic Furs to me.
I'm ashamed to say it, but I pretty much love the Digimon song.
tasha
Edit--well I guess it's The Smiths, not the P-furs.

And I defy you to get the theme of the old Spiderman cartoon out of your head once you hear it.

I don't know if this counts of not, but it was on a TV show, so what the hell...
Believe it or not, George isn't at home,
Please leave a message, at the beep.
I must be out, or I'd pick up the phone.
Where could I be?
Believe it or not, I'm not home.
That song never gets old.
