Let's show some love for our soap theme songs!
New or old.. good or bad.. there have been some legendary soap theme songs throughout the years! We have had many different arrangements of the main stalwarts that still dominate the schedules today, with others along the way, not so well-known or completely obscure to some that formed a crucial part of the soap landscape! The genre is a little lost and bereft at the moment, so I thought for a bit of fun and nostalgia, what better time than any to celebrate the themes of our childhood/adolescence/adulthood!
So I'm going to kick things off with this absolute gem that I've never even heard before! Inspired by a recent reminiscent conversation with a friend about the legendary Brookside, I give you, DANA! I wouldn't have chosen this to open this thread, but here we are and I look forward to listening to further contributions that I may or may not have heard! Hit it soapies! 🎶

I preferred the original original!
Yes that's one!
Can you provide the links to these? The more original and obscure the better! 🙂
These two. 😎

Another epic theme!
I came to say the same.
I had it as my ringtone back in the day!
I think the OP is doing what a lot of younger? people do these days, confuse tune with song. I even heard Rylan do this on the radio. Same with "floor" and "ground" . Someone quite clearly lying on the grass or a pavement and you hear " lying on the floor", I've hear the Police say that. The latest is "street" for "road", "she got run over by a tractor walking down the street"!
Sitcoms too, such as Not Going Out.
Yes, you're right. Maybe I have misunderstood the OP, but it has been interesting to try to think of some anyway. If they do mean non-singing then the American ones like Dallas, Dynasty and Knots Landing were great.
This too 🌹
Julia's Theme is quite beautiful and when used correctly it makes scenes so memorable.
