What's yours? Can be written for TV or a song adapted as a them tune.

I love the them from Blakes 7, so dramatic!

Not really got one, but I did smile when The Fratellis covered Duffy in the live lounge on Radio 1 yesterday.
They managed to incorporate 'I could be so good for you' (Minder). It was very good lol.

EDIT: Actually I love 'Half the world away' - The Royle Family.

"Hotel Babylon" is probably my absolute fave at the minute - I downloaded it on iTunes and have the ringtone on my phone

Gabriella Cilimi's version of "Echo Beach"

Red Dwarf

Casualty (especially the "sad" version with the piano bit at the start) the same for Eastenders theme when they have a playout

I've always liked "Back with the boys again" and "Get it right"

Neighbours (Every version except current) especially the sad, slow version used for Helen Daniels death, my god, just hearing that makes me well up.
Same with slow EE theme tune, but not so much the regular version.

The OC
Golden Girls (because of the OC I love this, when Rachel and Anna sing it in the Toilets)
Red Dwarf
The Simple Life
FRIENDS!
The Big Bang Theory (That is one amazing theme tune)
Family Guy
The Royle Family
Tru Calling
