Real Song Theme Tune | comment |
A Theme Tune which already existed as a well-known song. Most often, a cover of the original by an unknown artist is used, though the use of the original is increasingly common. Tends to be more common for dramatic series, though it is not unheard of for the Sitcom. Rarely occurs in children's shows. In some cases, the new version may become better-known than the original. In some rare cases, it might blow the first popular version out of the water, leaving future generations to assume that the song hadn't been all that popular beforehand. See The Lone Ranger below for an example. This entry does not cover cases where the theme music already existed but is not well known in its own right. (Thus, the use of "As Time Goes By" in Casablanca does not count.) Most Anime have J-pop theme tunes that change every season, but that doesn't count, either - Anime Theme Song is its own "trope". See also Repurposed Pop Song for a similar trope in advertising. |

Happy Days used "Rock Around the Clock" by Bill Haley & His Comets before switching to an original theme song. The version of "Rock Around the Clock" the show used wasn't the original 1954 recording either: they had the aging Haley re-record the song. "Rock Around the Clock" was the opening theme for the first two seasons. The original "Happy Days" song ("Sunday, Monday, happy days...") was always the closing theme. For the third season, they started using their own song at the beginning and end, probably to make more money off royalties. The version of "Happy Days" used as the end theme for seasons 1 and 2 was performed by Jimmy Haas, and when it became the main theme, it was replaced by a version from Pratt & McClain (and that version was replaced again for the show's final season with a more modern arrangement from Bobby Arvon). It was also kept for the syndicated rerun version of the series that was circulated while the original series was still on the air. Entitled Happy Days Again, the original 1954 recording of the song by Bill Haley and His Comets was used instead of the 1974 re-recording. |

Mariano Rivera, closing pitcher for the New York Yankees, would leave the bullpen to the sound of "Enter Sandman" by Metallica. It became so identifiable with him that when he retired, some headlines read "Exit Sandman". "Enter Sandman" is also the entrance music for Virginia Tech's football team at home games. Metallica is also used by a team of their area, the San Francisco Bay, as the San Jose Sharks hit the ice to the sound of "Seek & Destroy". |

Soul Train used several real songs as its theme: most famously "TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia)" by MFSB. Though "TSOP" was only used for nine of the show's 28 seasons (six of which used remixed versions), most fans consider it the theme song for the show. TSOP was originally written to be the official song to be named "Soul Train", but it was decided not to closely associate it with the show. Mother Father Sister Brother (MFSB) released it as a single, becoming the first disco song to reach #1 on the Billboard charts. |

Gilmore Girls opens with a version of Carole King's "Where You Lead," which was recorded with her daughter. The lyrics are slightly different than the original, as King had become disillusioned with its anti-feminist undertones and had stopped performing it live. When approached by Amy Sherman-Pallidino to use it as the show's theme, King said she'd rather re-record it, contacting the song's co-writer who helped tweak the lyrics to reflect a mother/daughter relationship. | |

From Channel Awesome we have: Benzaie's Hardcorener uses the arranged version of "Roar of the Twin Dragons" by Kazuhiro Hara and Nobuhito Tanahashi from the album Double Dragon II: The Revenge. All of Brad Jones' current shows use Theme Tunes from 1980s TV shows: The Cinema Snob - "Believe It or Not" from The Greatest American Hero The Pierre Kirby episodes - "Jet Set" by Alphaville Kung Tai Ted - The Master (but not "Master Ninja Theme Song"!) The Big Box - Automan Brad Tries... - Newhart'' 80's Dan - Probably the most obscure of all, this one is from a James D Parriot/Universal cop show called Hawaiian Heat. It ran on ABC in 1984 and flopped horribly. Brad and Jerrid - Bay City Blues, another extremely obscure one, and one of many TV shows from NBC's infamous "no-hitter" year of 1983-84 where none of their new fall shows lasted a full season. Chad Rocco uses the Junkie XL remix of "A Little Less Conversation" for his Familiar Faces show. That Dude in the Suede's theme songs are all Real Song Theme Tunes. They're Having An Evangelion Moment! - Unknown Song. Animénia - How Do You Have Your Tea? by Urbantramper AMV Heaven - Smack My Bitch Up by The Prodigy Fandom Stranger - Return of the Phantom Stranger by Rob Zombie. When it was Anime Weirdness, it used Let’s Fighting Love by DVDA Suede Played has Airbrushed by Anamanaguchi. Film Brain's is "Ready to Roll" by Jet Black Stare. Brows Held High uses the composition "Procession of the Nobles" by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Spoony's theme is "Break Me" by The Irresponsibles. What the Fuck Is Wrong with You?'s theme in both its episodic and live incarnations is "Crazy" by Patsy Cline Nash's other show The Musical Chair has "My Guitar" by Jump, Little Children as its theme. Luke Mochrie and the Inners use the Ouverture from 1981 musical Shock Treatment ... and Obscurus Lupa uses The Supernaturals' Smile for her feature Manic Episodes. Todd in the Shadows opens Pop Song Reviews and One Hit Wonderland with himself playing instrumental versions of the spotlight song on his keyboard. |

Though it should be obvious, each of the Rock Band games has one of the songs from the game play during the opening cutscene from each iteration. The original Rock Band has "Highway Star" by Deep Purple, Rock Band 2 has a rerecording of "Hello There" by Cheap Trick, and Rock Band 3 has "Break On Through (To the Other Side)" by The Doors. In addition, both Green Day Rock Band and The Beatles Rock Band have mashups of several songs by each respective band, and Lego Rock Band uses "Grace" by Music/Supergrass. | |

Rescue Me, the American firefighter show, also falls under this: it uses "C'mon C'mon" by the Von Bondies. While thematically fitting for a series dealing so heavily with how tough men deal with loss, it is a little weird that such an emphatically New York series would use a song by such an emphatically Detroit band. | |

Apocalypse Now: The Doors' "The End". Also of course "The Ride of the Valkyries" by Richard Wagner during the helicopter attack. Some viewers who weren't into classical music — among them, the inhabitants of the area where the sequence was filmed - assumed that the piece was written for the film. |

Star Trek: Enterprise was the first of the series not to have a symphonic theme tune — it used "Faith of the Heart", performed by Russell Watson. (A more well-known version of the song is performed by Rod Stewart on the soundtrack of Patch Adams.) In the third and fourth seasons, they decided something was missing - a thumping backbeat... in what was essentially a country song. The closing credits music, now known as "Archer's Theme", was originally intended to be the Enterprise theme, and was written by the same man who wrote the theme for Deep Space Nine. Executive Meddling ensued, and it was replaced with "Faith of the Heart". This is what that would have looked like. An even earlier concept, however, was a throwback to other Trek series, including the Opening Narration and footage of the ship. |

Season 1 (Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency): Yes's "Roundabout"; different parts of this eight-minute long jam session were used over the end credits, and in rare occasions the instrumental intro bled into the scene right before a "To Be Continued" freeze-frame, leading to a video meme where dramatic events are cut off right as the screen turns sepia, freeze frames, the iconic "To Be Continued Arrow" appears, and the beginning chords of "Roundabout" begin. | |

House uses an instrumental version of "Teardrop" from Mezzanine by Massive Attack for its theme. In other countries a different song is used called 'House', composed by Scott Donaldson and Richard Nolan for the show. Once you've heard the Massive Attack version of the credits, the other one will really grate, because the cuts in the credits are perfectly timed to fit with "Teardrop", and they are a lot less powerful with a different song. Notably, in one episode a cover of "Teardrop" performed by José González, complete with lyrics, is played at the end. And, on the DVDs (at least the ones available for purchase in the UK), the two songs ("House" and the "Teardrop" instrumental) alternate with each episode. Additionally, the intro for the first episode of Season 6 used "No Surprises" by Radiohead. |

In a rare game show example, the short-lived Mark Goodson-Bill Todman game Now You See It used Quincy Jones' "Chump Change" as the theme on both versions. Bill Cosby also used this same music on The New Bill Cosby Show. Other game shows that used actual recordings as themes: The Price Is Right: From 1956 to 1961, they used "Sixth Finger Tune", which was taken from a stage show called "Six Fingers For A Five-Fingered Glove". Password: Its 1961-1963 theme was called "Holiday Jaunt" and was used as early as 1958. Seven Keys: "Everything's Coming Up Roses". Match Game: From 1962 to 1967, it was "A Swingin' Safari" by Bert Kaempfert. The pilot used the Billy Vaughn arrangement. Eye Guess: For the first two years the theme was Al Hirt's "Sugar Lips". The Face Is Familiar (a short-lived CBS nighttime show from 1966): "Brasilia" by Herb Alpert. The Love Experts, a short lived game show-panel game hybrid hosted by Bill Cullen, used Bebu Silvetti's "Spring Rain". |

At football games, the team will sing the song and invite the crowd to join in. (Denver himself performed the song at the 1980 opening game for the Mountaineers' current stadium.) | |

Though it's best known as the Looney Tunes theme, "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" was originally a #1 hit in 1937. "Merrily We Roll Along," from a 1935 show of the same title, is best known as the "Merrie Melodies" theme. |

Sharpe uses an extended version the traditional British military song "Over the Hills and Far Away", using the lyrics from George Farquah's 1706 play The Recruiting Officer. Although written during the War of Spanish Succession, they are fortuitously fitting for Sharpe's career, which also took him "to Flanders, Portugal and Spain" (well, actually Waterloo is in Brabant, but that's close enough to Flanders). | |

The Exorcist famously uses "Tubular Bells, Part One" by Mike Oldfield. According to William Friedkin, this was by pure chance - he had scrapped the previous score and sought to replace it. While visiting the office of Atlantic Records president Ahmet Ertegun, Friedkin picked up a record with a white label, put it on Ertegun’s turntable, and instantly decided it should be the theme to his film. Tubular Bells was already a success in Oldfield’s home country of the UK, where it hit the top 10; its use in The Exorcist replicated that success for Oldfield across the pond. | |

In the older times, this trope was frequently used by MTV and VIVA for the various anime they showed in Germany. This had some, well, "interesting" results, like the song "Star" from Nova International (which has the line "I wanna drive a big fat Cadillac" as part of its lyrics), set to the opening of Inuyasha, of all things. They also changed one of the smoothest opening songs (Hellsing's "Logos Naki World") to some random heavy metal song by Keith Flint of the British techno group The Prodigy. Speaking of Hellsing, the ending used the song "Shine" by Mr. Big, a band who was actually quite popular over in Japan. |

Wolfenstein 3-D uses "Horst Wessel Lied", the Nazi national anthem, as its theme tune. Unsurprisngly, this along with countless other Nazi symbols in the game led to it being banned in Germany for a long while. | |

WWE has used several "real" hard-rock and heavy-metal songs as theme tunes for their various programs, including Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People", Papa Roach's "To be Loved", Nickelback's "Burn it to the Ground", Green Day's "Know Your Enemy", or Shinedown's "Enemies." When they don't use a real song, they often use a Thematic Theme Tune recorded by a popular artist such as SmackDown's mid-2000's theme, "Rise Up" recorded by Drowning Pool, and Raw's former theme from Triple H's "Reign of Terror" era, "Across the Nation" by Union Underground. This was pretty much the case for most wrestlers' entrance themes until the music industry started cracking down on "unauthorized use" of copyrighted music and demanding royalties. After that, in all but a few exceptions (Ex. Hulk Hogan shelled out of his own pocket for the rights to "Voodoo Child"), organizations either switched to a Suspiciously Similar Song version of songs (Sting's late run WCW music was Metallica's "Seek and Destroy" with the Serial Numbers Filed Off), original tunes, or public domain ("Macho Man" Randy Savage's use of "Pomp and Circumstance"). Examples in the mid-1980s WWF included Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" for Hogan, Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" for the Junkyard Dog, Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" for Lauper's protege Wendi Richter, and Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" for the U.S. Express (Mike Rotunda and Barry Windham, real-life brothers-in-law). The first few WrestleMania events also used real songs, including Phil Collins and Phillip Bailey's "Easy Lover" for the first WrestleMania, and Aretha Franklin's "Who's Zoomin' Who?" for WrestleMania III. Also, "Ravishing" Rick Rude used "The Stripper" by David Rose as his entrance theme during his "Chippendale" gimmick. The biggest exception would be ECW, who continued to use real songs as entrance themes as part of their image as an "outlaw organization". Even their TNN/SpikeTV theme counted (White Zombie's "More Human Than Human"). A more recent WWE exception was its use of t.A.T.u.'s "All the Things She Said" as Victoria's entrance music from 2002–2004. CM Punk started using "Cult of Personality" by Living Colour during the "Summer of Punk" in Ring of Honor and eventually returned to using that, with people in the industry remarking that since Vince McMahon hates paying music royalties, it meant Punk got exactly what he wanted to re-sign for the company. His first WWE theme, "This Fire Burns" by Killswitch Engage is a subversion; it was originally recorded for WWE's Wreckless Intent compilation album, used for their 2006 Judgment Day and briefly by Randy Orton. It later appeared on the band's album As Daylight Dies under the shortened title "This Fire". |

Rock n' Roll Racing, as the name suggests, used a number of actual classic rock songs: George Thorogood's "Bad to the Bone", Black Sabbath's "Paranoid", Deep Purple's "Highway Star", Henry Mancini's "Peter Gunn" (also used in Spy Hunter), and Steppenwolf's "Born to be Wild". Admittedly, since it is an SNES game, they're instrumental arrangements, but they're arrangements that push the SNES' sound chip to its limits (largely thanks to Tim Follin's sound programming). Even more impressive is that he did this without the manual, and actually did a better job than the people who developed the program Tim used. When Shigeru Miyamoto heard it he wanted to know how it was done. The Genesis version adds Golden Earring's "Radar Love". |

Most famously, TRF's music has made their way into infamy as Pretty Series theme songs, especially in the Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live continuity: "Boy Meets Girl" appears as the first opening and "EZ DO DANCE" appears as the second opening theme. You'll see this song pop up a lot in the rest of the series (especially in King of Prism), but not as a theme song anymore. The former song was also used as the first ending theme of UFO Baby. Speaking of King of Prism, their third installment Shiny Seven Stars has nothing but TRF music as their opening and ending themes. |

The rock band Journey got their own arcade video game during The Golden Age of Video Games, which played several of the band's hits in electronic form. However, the cabinet also contained an actual cassette tape with an edited, looped version of "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)" (not an electronic rendition, but the real song), which the game played through its speakers during the bonus stage. Playable copies of the cassette are a rarity for music collectors, as that version of the song isn't available anywhere else. | |

Omega Boost has this in spades: The Japanese release features "Shade" by Feeder, in US, "Otsegolation" by Static-X, and in Europe, "Fly" by Loudmouth. And this is just the openings. It has three diferent endings as well: "Dip in the pool" by Ismeel (apparently a Japanese Enka), "Dreamer" by Cast, and "The Road" by Loudmouth. The Australian version only seems to use Dreamers, for some reason—plus, it seems to be a recording of the song made specifically for the game. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: The end credits of Iron Man is accompanied by Black Sabbath's "Iron Man", for obvious reasons. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) famously features "Come and Get Your Love" by Redbone over the opening credits, with other classic 60's and 70's songs playing at various points throughout. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 continues this, with "Mr. Blue Sky" by Electric Light Orchestra for the opening. All the MCU Spider-Man films use these: Homecoming uses "Blitzkrieg Bop" by The Ramones, Far From Home has "Vacation" by The Go-Go's, and No Way Home has "The Magic Number" by De La Soul. Thor: Ragnarok has "Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin play during the Batman Cold Open, with a reprise during the finale. The traier for Thor: Love and Thunder features Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child o' Mine", which was also used as the first ending song. Then comes Ronnie James Dio's "Rainbow In The Dark" playing as the extended credits roll. |

CM Punk started using "Cult of Personality" by Living Colour during the "Summer of Punk" in Ring of Honor and eventually returned to using that, with people in the industry remarking that since Vince McMahon hates paying music royalties, it meant Punk got exactly what he wanted to re-sign for the company. His first WWE theme, "This Fire Burns" by Killswitch Engage is a subversion; it was originally recorded for WWE's Wreckless Intent compilation album, used for their 2006 Judgment Day and briefly by Randy Orton. It later appeared on the band's album As Daylight Dies under the shortened title "This Fire". | |

The Beatles cartoon used real Beatles songs throughout the series, including the title sequences. "Can't Buy Me Love" and "Help!" were both used as theme songs, but the one that seems to be the best remembered is "And Your Bird Can Sing," which was used during the last season. A rearrangement of "I Should Have Known Better" was used in the title cards. Actually, that was the King Features Television signature theme. It was used at the end of several features and the end of their other Saturday morning show, Cool McCool. |

It's become somewhat of a tradition in the Borderlands series for each game to have one of these: Borderlands uses Cage the Elephant's "Ain't No Rest For The Wicked" as the game theme in both the opening video and commercial trailers. It fits the setting quite well. Champion's "No Heaven" is also used in one of the trailers and during the end credits. Borderlands 2 uses "Short Change Hero" by The Heavy in its opening, and the same band's other recognizable song, "How You Like Me Now?", in the credits. Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! uses "Black Dragon" by The Vines for its opening and "What Makes A Good Man" by The Heavy for its credits. Each episode of Tales from the Borderlands uses a different song for its opening and credits theme: Zer0 Sum uses "Busy Earnin'" by Jungle. Atlas Shrugged uses "Kiss the Sky" by Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra. Catch a Ride uses "Pieces of the People We Love" by The Rapture. Escape Plan Bravo uses "To the Top" by Twin Shadow. Vault of the Traveler uses "Retrograde" by James Blake for its intro, and "My Silver Lining" by First Aid Kit for its credits. Borderlands 3 uses "Put It On The Line" by The Heavy for its intro and "Girl on Fire" by Alicia Keys for its credits. |

The closing credits music, now known as "Archer's Theme", was originally intended to be the Enterprise theme, and was written by the same man who wrote the theme for Deep Space Nine. Executive Meddling ensued, and it was replaced with "Faith of the Heart". This is what that would have looked like. An even earlier concept, however, was a throwback to other Trek series, including the Opening Narration and footage of the ship. | |

Mass Effect: In an unusual subversion, the first game's use of "M4 (Part II)" from Faunts as its credits theme is what catapulted the group into fame in the first place.

In the Citadel DLC for the game, Shepard and Tali watch Fleet and Flotilla; the romantic theme for the movie is the same tune. From the same DLC, Liara plays "Vigil" from Mass Effect on the piano when she visits Shepard's apartment. Mass Effect: Andromeda uses Aurora's "Under Stars". |

Designing Women used Ray Charles' "Georgia on my Mind". The first 5 seasons used an instrumental that featured Johnny Carson's bandleader, Doc Severinson, on the trumpet. In the 6th season, the opening credits featured Ray Charles himself on the piano, singing, while the Designing Women hung around looking pleased. |

Brazil used several versions of "Aquarela do Brasil" as its theme music. Jeff Muldaur does the comical, yodelling version heard on Sam's car radio; Bachianos Brazil Samba the one on the end credits; and no less than Kate Bush provided a further one which was supposed to be heard over Sam's first flying dream. For some unfathomable reason, the last one was cut, but can be heard on the soundtrack album. | |

Watchmen used Bob Dylan's 'Desolation Row' as the theme over the credits — except that My Chemical Romance covered the rather folksy lyrics as a punk song, which worked surprisingly well. The very memorable title sequence had another Dylan song, though this time his original version — "The Times They Are A-Changin'". | |

All of the canonical Fallout games have this: "Maybe" by the Ink Spots for the original, "A Kiss to Build a Dream On" by Louis Armstrong for Fallout 2, "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" by the Ink Spots for Fallout 3, "Blue Moon" sung by Frank Sinatra (originally by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart) for Fallout: New Vegas, "The Wanderer" by Dion for Fallout 4, and "Take Me Home, Country Roads", originally by John Denver, for Fallout 76. Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas feature radio stations one can listen to; in each, there's a news station that features announcements related to the player's progress through the game, but features real music in-between announcements (in Fallout 3, Galaxy News Radio plays mostly 1940s pop while Enclave Radio plays mainly American patriotic standards; in Fallout: New Vegas, New Vegas Radio plays 1950's songs while Mojave Music and Black Mountain Radio play country/western songs. Old World Blues adds the Mysterious Broadcast, which plays jazz and, you guessed it, blues.) |

Resident Alien uses "Bilgewater" by the defunct and rather obscure band Brown Bird, chosen by the show's creator when searching for songs by by artists he had never heard before.

Peaky Blinders uses "Red Right Hand" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (in keeping with the series' anachronistic love of using rock for the interwar setting). The series mostly uses the original version by Cave but starting in Series 3 covers by various (mostly English) artists are heard (including Arctic Monkeys and Laura Marling). The song itself is quite fitting, since it details a mysterious person doing acts of kindness for mysterious and possibly nefarious reasons (much like Tommy Shelby). (Also, for a series focused so much on "Irish business", it's sure convenient that a red right hand is a symbol of Ulster...). | |

When he became Daniel Bryan in WWE, he used "Ride of the Valkyries" for his first year in the company, and switched to a rock orientation of the song afterwards.

Each season of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure uses a new licensed ending theme song to pay homage to author Hirohiko Araki's allusions to rock, prog rock, and pop music. They have included: Season 1 (Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency): Yes's "Roundabout"; different parts of this eight-minute long jam session were used over the end credits, and in rare occasions the instrumental intro bled into the scene right before a "To Be Continued" freeze-frame, leading to a video meme where dramatic events are cut off right as the screen turns sepia, freeze frames, the iconic "To Be Continued Arrow" appears, and the beginning chords of "Roundabout" begin. Season 2 (Stardust Crusaders): the first 24 episodes use The Bangles' "Walk Like an Egyptian", while episodes 25-48 use Pat Metheny Group's "Last Train Home" Season 3 (Diamond is Unbreakable): Savage Garden's "I Want You" Season 4 (Golden Wind): episodes 1-19 use Jodeci's "Freek'n You"note Try to keep a straight face when the 90s R&B bass line starts and then goes immediately into the lyrics "Every time I close my eyes / I wake up feeling so horny", while episodes 22-39 use Enigma's "Modern Crusaders". Season 5 (Stone Ocean): episodes 1-37 use Duffy's "Distant Dreamer", while episode 38 uses Yes's "Roundabout". |

The Transformers films seem to have this strange obsession with Linkin Park's music and managed to utilize this with What I've Done playing in the credits of the first filmnote it was also played in the background of another scene. Then it got subverted with New Divide being recorded specifically for Revenge of the Fallen, and was mixed into the film's actual score at various points. Dark of The Moon continued the tradition by having the song Iridescent as its theme, though slightly re-recorded to better fit with the film's grim mood. There's also the liberal use of Green Day's "21 Guns" in Revenge of the Fallen. Bumblebee meanwhile, ends up using bits from The Cars' "Drive", Player's "Baby Come Back", Rick James' "Superfreak" and the Pointer Sisters' "I'm So Excited" at different points in the films as part of his speech. |

2001: A Space Odyssey uses a climactic fanfare that comes from Richard Strauss' Also sprach Zarathustra, written in 1896. The work wasn't that popular in the English-speaking world at the time, so it's understandable that many viewers assume it was written especially for the movie. Ironically, the classical standards (including both "Zarathustra" and "The Blue Danube") were actually filler music used for test viewings while Stanley Kubrick was waiting for a score to be done - but when it came back, he realized he liked the classical music better, and it stayed in. |

The Brian & Jill Show: It uses the song "I Want to Singa", originally from a Looney Tunes cartoon (though most today would know it from the first episode of South Park), as the theme song for their first week. The plan had been to choose different theme song each week but instead had a listener or someone in the show's crew choose a new theme song each day. Their trivia game, "No Apparent Reason," gets the William Tell Overture while their "What's News" segment gets What's New Pussycat by Tom Jones. |

Soul Man (and possibly another show) used, appropriately enough, "Soul Man". Doubly appropriate as the lead actor is also one of The Blues Brothers. Hangin' with Mr. Cooper used "Soul Man" for its second season before changing to an original theme song. |

A Prairie Home Companion uses a version of "Tishomingo Blues" with rewritten lyrics. Nobody really seems to remember the original. The original 1970s-80s run of the show opened with Garrison Keillor singing Hank Snow's "Hello Love", a #1 country hit in 1974. |

Local TV newscasts have used real songs, often instrumentals, on occasion. Perhaps the most famous use would be Gonna Fly Now being the theme to the ground-breaking CityPulse in Toronto from 1977 into the 2000s (with various rearrangements and new themes with the same melody being used until then). Brazilian broadcaster TV Globo has used "Freedom of Speech", an instrumental from the soundtrack of the 1971 film Vanishing Point, as the theme music for its newsmagazine Globo Repórter for decades. The same network uses "The Fuzz" by American composer Frank de Vol, an instrumental from the 1967 film The Happening, for its main newscast Jornal Nacional. |

The voice actors of the three female leads of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day did a cover of "Secret Base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~ (10 Years After Ver.)," which was sung beforehand by Scandal. The song itself was a revival of the song "Secret Base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~," which was originally sung by Zone—and this version was covered by the cast of Kyou no Go no Ni, two and a half years before AnoHana! Since the lyrics were essentially the same, this means that the song has been used in at least two shows! | |

Crüe Ball features three Mötley Crüe songs; "Dr. Feelgood" plays during the title screen and bonus level, "Live Wire" plays in a cutscene before the demo gameplay, and "Home Sweet Home" plays when you beat the game. The rest of the in-game music consists of cycled PCMs by arcade Pinball composer Brian Schmidt. The Motley Crüe license was attached to the game very late in development, so it's likely there wasnt much room for more than just three Crüe songs. | |

The Wire uses Tom Waits' "Way Down in the Hole". Each season is done by a different artist - season one was by The Blind Boys of Alabama, season two was Waits' original version and season three was by The Neville Brothers. Season four's version was a specially recorded R'n'B version to represent the show's shift in focus to children on the streets. Season five was sung by Steve Earle, who plays Walon in the show. | |

Monty Python's Flying Circus uses John Phillip Sousa's "Liberty Bell" march as theme music, and such was their influence they've effectively made it their own. The original, like most Sousa marches, goes into a different melody which is nowhere near as well-known. The original also has no razzberries. | |

CSI: Each show in the franchise takes its Theme Tune from a song by The Who: "Who Are You" for the original, "Won't Get Fooled Again" for CSI: Miami, "Baba O'Riley" for CSI: NY, and "I Can See For Miles" for CSI: Cyber. As TIME Magazine said, "[the fact the album Who's Next has only eight tracks] provides the only natural curb on the expansion of the C.S.I. franchise." It was lampshaded in an episode of Two and a Half Men, featuring a CSI parody which, for its Theme Tune, used The Who's wildly inappropriate "Squeeze Box". |

The theme song for most The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy media is "Journey of the Sorcerer" by the Eagles. It appeared as the opening theme for the television and radio programs and appears in the scene introducing the titular guide in the 2005 film adaptation. According to The Other Wiki, the reason "Journey of the Sorcerer" was chosen was because Douglas Adams wanted a theme song that was both futuristic-sounding and suggestive of a traveler at the same time. Adams felt that the banjo gave it an "on the road, hitchhiker-esque feel". |

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb: For its opening theme tune, the film uses a lush arrangement of the old standard "Try a Little Tenderness" over B-52 aerial refueling footage, turning it into machine porn. Closing the film with stock footage of nuclear explosions overlaid with Vera Lynn singing "We'll Meet Again" is also quite memorable. |

NCIS: New Orleans has the John Lee Hooker song "Boom Boom" as performed by Big Head Todd and the Monsters as the opening theme. This makes it the Oddball in the Series, since it's the only show in the franchise (of NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, and JAG) that uses a Real Song Theme Tune. Or to even have a theme song with lyrics. | |

The Lone Ranger: The opera William Tell reached the pinnacle of its popularity in The '30s. Everyone had heard of it, and more importantly everyone knew the overture by heart. Unfortunately, the use of the final movement of the overture as the theme song for The Lone Ranger associated it so strongly with the Western genre that the opera basically became unstageable in America. Because of this, some might assume the song doesn't fit the trope because the opera isn't popular now. In any case, it's also an example of Public Domain Soundtrack. Lampshaded in a commercial for Jeno's Pizza Rolls, which itself was a spoof of a cigarette commercial that used the music. A man with a pack of cigarettes taps the shoulder of the announcer, saying, "I'd like to talk to you about that music you're using", whereupon Clayton Moore, dressed as The Lone Ranger, claps a hand on the shoulder of the second man, and says, "That's funny, I've been meaning to speak to you people about the same thing." Next to him is Jay Silverheels as Tonto, who asks, "Have a pizza roll, kemosabe?" and helps himself to quite a few of them. Watch it here. |

Justified, since it was originally going to be an Urusei Yatsura gamenote It was eventually released on the Nintendo Famicom (the original Japanese version of the NES) as Urusei Yatsura: Lum no Wedding Bell, where the song choice makes a lot more sense. | |

Spy Hunter (1983) has the theme from Peter Gunn as its theme, which was then updated into "The Spy Hunter Theme" by Saliva for the PS2/XBOX installment. The sequel to the PS2/XBOX game has "Dark Carnival", a Bond-esque tune by Vanessa Carlton. | |

Primeval uses "All Sparks" by Editors for its ending theme. Unless you're not in the UK. It recycles the opening theme for the ending theme in overseas broadcasts (at least in Australia it does). "All Sparks" was only used for the televised broadcast of the show's first season. When season 1 was released on DVD, the credits used the opening theme. |

They also changed one of the smoothest opening songs (Hellsing's "Logos Naki World") to some random heavy metal song by Keith Flint of the British techno group The Prodigy. Speaking of Hellsing, the ending used the song "Shine" by Mr. Big, a band who was actually quite popular over in Japan. |

Transformers: Beast Machines used Leftfield's "Phat Planet" for its theme, spiced up with animal noises. The music in the series itself modeled itself off the theme. And it's even kept intact in the Japanese dub too when the show was renamed as Beast Wars Returns... except in the recap episode (due to the cast talking over it on the opening). | |

Another 1982 Sega arcade game, Super Locomotive, uses the 1979 song "Rydeen" by Yellow Magic Orchestra. This tune has also gone on to appear in several other computer games, such as Stryker's Run and Daley Thompson's Decathlon. A later port of Super Locomotive, for the Sega Genesis Mini 2, swaps out the song for "Ryzeen" by the tribute band Oriental Magnetic Yellow. | |

The Need for Speed series has had many theme songs. The first time a theme song was used was in Hot Pursuit 2 with two songs by Hot Action Cop: "Goin' Down on It" and "Fever for the Flava", both bowdlerised for the game. Underground 1 uses "Get Low" by Lil' Jon and The Eastside Boyz and Ying Yang Twins as its theme song. Underground 2 uses "Riders on the Storm (Fredwreck Remix)" by Snoop Dogg and The Doors as its theme song. Most Wanted 2005 has two theme songs: "Nine Thou (Grant Mohrman Superstars Remix)" by Styles of Beyond, and a specifically-made song, "Shapeshifter" by Celldweller and Styles of Beyond. Carbon has "Hard Drivers" by Ekstrak as its theme song. ProStreet doesn't have a specific theme song, but many of the most recognizable songs in the game were made by Dutch musician Junkie XL. The most known of these songs is "Castellated Nut", as it has an appearance in World, thanks to the Mitsubishi Eclipse ELITE. Undercover, like ProStreet, doesn't have a specific theme song, but by far the most recognizable songs of the soundtrack are Combichrist's remix of "Never Wanted to Dance" by Mindless Self Indulgence and "The Mark Has Been Made" by Nine Inch Nails. Shift has as its theme song "Kalemba Wegue Wegue" by Buraka Som Sistema and Pongolove. Nitro has as its theme song "Code of the Road" by Danko Jones. Hot Pursuit (2010) has "Edge of the Earth" by Thirty Seconds to Mars. Shift 2: Unleashed has "Night of the Hunter", also by Thirty Seconds to Mars, as its theme song. Most Wanted (2012) has "Butterflies and Hurricanes" by Muse, though only in the opening sequence. Rivals has "Troublemaker" by Haezer, and "Lootin' in London" by RDGLDGRN. the 2015 reboot has "Night Riders" by Major Lazer, Travi$ Scott, 2 Chainz, Pusha T, and Mad Cobra. Unbound makes use of A$AP Rocky's involvement and uses an original song from him titled "Shittin' Me". |

According to The Other Wiki, the reason "Journey of the Sorcerer" was chosen was because Douglas Adams wanted a theme song that was both futuristic-sounding and suggestive of a traveler at the same time. Adams felt that the banjo gave it an "on the road, hitchhiker-esque feel". | |
