Way cool, Jon! Best of luck, you wacky theremin player, you.
A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I'm so excited for you Jon, and am awed by your confidence in situations like that. May the AGT crew realize what they found in you so that America gets to share it.
I have great love for the theme for Greatest American Hero. Believe it or not, I'm walking on air.
I made a spinning (exercise) mix with tv themes and this one is my favorite.
My theory is that I don't end up liking a series if I don't like the theme song...and some theme songs have ended up being my favorite music.

The theme from Taxi is probably one of my favorites, up there with Hawaii 5-0 and Mission Impossible.

I love the Psych theme, Bones, Angel (although the Darling Violetta track has some weird stuff on it that makes it less enjoyable than the theme snippet), H5O, Justified and an obscure reality show called Sons of Guns.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Medical Center had a great theme by Lalo Schifrin. (Who, of course, also did Mission: Impossible.)
The Jonny Quest theme gets my heart pumping, and its horn chart was used as an audition piece in Hollywood for years because it's so difficult.
One of my favorite teasers on Friends was when they all started humming The Odd Couple theme (by Neil Hefti, who also did Batman).
Courageous Cat does a good job stealing the riff from Peter Gunn, and the New York Dolls used to cover it.
Speaking of Rock and Roll covers, the MTM theme was done by both Husker Du and Joan Jett. And The Breeders did the BtvS theme.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The MTM theme was written by Sonny Curtis, from The Crickets.

Thanks, Bonny. The trick is not really caring if i make it. I mean, it'll be a blast if I get to audition in front of Sharon Osbourne, but I won't be crushed if I don't.

Best way to win anything!

Shut up! Really? I have to go find that.
Speaking of soundtracks, but not tv related. I'm still bummed that Saved never got an album. With Stipe as the producer, you'd think that would be a lock. I have never really cared about a missing soundtrack for any other film but that one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think it was originally a b-side? Anyway, I have a copy if you need it. There's also a video, where the Huskers reenact Mary's "toss the hat into the air" thing at the correct location (Nicolette Mall, IIRC).

First White Castle and now this! Be on TV more!
