Whilst we are talking about theme tunes, do any of you find that pop songs take on a completely different meaning, depending on what they are used for? Like Stereophonics 'Handbags and Glad rags' for 'The Office'? It always makes me cry!
Which ones do you find memorable or emotional?

Howard's Way music by Simon May initially an instrumental version then as "Always There" sung by Marti Webb, version that entered the charts.
Programme then resorted back to instrumental more upbeat version

If you want emotion in a TV theme tune is has to be the piano tune at the end of 'The Incredible Hulk' where David Banner is thumbing a lift.
Brings a tear to my eye every time.

I always cried at The Incredible Hulk music at the end. Thats the saddest TV music I have heard and as a kid used to walk out the room in tears.

Cool question! I always find that 'Iris' by Goo Goo Dolls from the movie City of Angels makes my hairs stand on end. Excellent song. After seeing them live in SA, stuck in my memeory forever.
