What Is Your Favorite Soap Opera Theme Song
This was actually a question I saw on one of the Facebook walls, so thank you to whoever it was that came up with this question! For me, there was a version of the All My Children theme song for a while that ended with a ding at the end of the song. My younger daughter was little at the time and would always "ding" when the song ended. After they changed the theme, for years, we would all "ding" at the end of the theme song at the beginning of the show.
Another memorable theme song was from Days of Our Lives - Like sands through the hourglass...

Omg I also loved the "ding" and as reading your comment, laughing everytime you mention the "ding". After "ding" went away:( I still continued to just "ding" anyway. Thank you for that "dinging" memory;) I do think that the "take me away to another world" got that right.
ReplyDeleteAll My Children is my favorite theme song. I do love that "Like sands through the hourgless..." It takes me wayyyy back to my childhood.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite theme is from OLTL during the most recent 3 years. I never saw the originals but this one really grabs my ears. But I have to also give my respect to Days Of Our Lives because their theme doesn't seem to change no matter what decade it's in. I only caught one listening of it when I was a kid in the 80's.
ReplyDeleteAll My Children has been my favorite for 41+ years.
ReplyDeleteOLTL Theme song. Sung..by anyone. Love that song. Still sing it in my head..even if I don't know the words.
ReplyDeleteThe incomprable Peabo Bryson singing:
ReplyDeleteHere's what you do when you don't find the rainbow's end
This time
Here's where you go when it looks like the rain won't end
Don't cry
There's always tomorrow, where you can have a second chance
And after tomorrow, all that you have to remember
Here's what you do when you think nobody cares
For you
Look in my eyes and see there's an answer there
It's true
We'll find tomorrow, a place for us, I know because...
Time only knows
How long forever's going to last
And we don't even need to ask
Let's live today
And find someone to share it with
'Cause we only have one life to live
Don't cry
I'll give you tomorrow
Let me be the one you share it with
And each day that follows
'Cause we only have one life to live
FIRST PLACE WOULD BE ANOTHER WORLDS THEME SONG SECOND FAVORITE WOULD BE ONE LIFE TO LIVE THEME SONG THIRD PLACE-Days of our lives theme
ReplyDeleteMy very favorite used to be on General Hospital, but they changed it recently, so my favorite is the theme song on One Life To Live and I love to hear Starr sing it!
