Smallville Theme song

Is it just me, or is the smallville theme song completely annoying, i have most of the first season on my pvr and I watched a few episodes today and I had to fast forward though the whole song most of the time b/c it just rings and rings in my head, just one of thouse songs i guess...

While, I like that bit from "Save Me" from Remy Zero they play for the opening credits, that lead singer's voice is annoying enough that it's hard to listen to the entire song, and most any of their other songs as well.

I kinda like it, even though I don't watch Smallville at all. A WB theme song is how I got turned on to Dido also, with Roswell.

It annoyed me at first but i got used to it. What annoyed me even more was WB's pathetic attempt at synergy by having Remy Zero play at the school's dance in the finale. Not to mention having Pete gushing over 'em.

Jeez guys, I know you really wanna push 'em but c'mon

I was into Dido before Roswell, but i'm glad it helped promote her.

I love the theme song. I guess you guys are not into grunge music. Remy Zero music style reminds me of Nirvana.

I think that Smallville should use the theme from Scrubs.

i don't really hate it that much, it just rings in my head over and over and over... like 3 hours after the show its still in my head... and the way they start the episode before the credits and they break the suspence with "SOMEBODY SAVE ME"...

Umm...grunge?? I never understood the appeal/wasn't that big a fan of Nirvana, but RZ most definitely does not remind me of Nirvana.

...more like the current crop of wannabe TRL rock groups on MTV.

I agree that the episode where they had Pete say that he loved Remy Zero was incredibly lame.

I don't agree that Remy Zero is just some TRL rock group. Maybe it was a bad idea for them to allow their song to be used as the Smallville theme. Once as song fo yours is a TV show theme, everyone just assumes that you are a lame band. Hell, another song of theirs, "perfect memory," was the song that closed out 90210.

I don't think Nirvana is a good comparison either. Their sound is much more mellow than that.

I'm a big Remy Zero fan, long before they had their song on any TV show. Anyone who is interested should pick up their 2nd album, Villa Elaine. There is some great stuff on there.
