Results: Nostalgia for the 1980s. Sitcom Theme songs.
Published on 05/11/2023
I don't know how many feel the same as me, but I miss the days when shows I loved had catchy theme songs with memorable lyrics and/or melodies that are burned into my brain. I am not sure but for some reason I feel that the show Dawson's Creek was one of the catalysts for the change from original jingles to just using popular songs from established artists. Which of these classic tunes do you love, remember and can instantly recognize from just a few notes or words?
