I hate to say it guys, but I think MDL's won the thread. *laughs* I've listened to this song over and over again ...

and as 'odd' as it is. I can 'see' the damn show opening in my head with this theme song playing. It fits so well ... I have no explanation as to why. lol

It is kind of fun... Seems like a fit for an IST/IW crossover.

I think that's actually the theme to the 'Toon' Roleplaying Game.

If you're looking for a twist on an existing theme song, you can't go wrong checking out the Nick Atoms website (www.thenickatoms.org). Their BSG classic theme is rocking and epic and they even manage to make the old Lost in Space theme entertaining.

EDIT: It looks like they even have a version of the SWAT theme song on their site.

Looking more for something that makes sense, not humor/tacky stuff like the "AQUA" song.

On May 23rd, I'm starting 4 to 5 session mini-campaign of INFINITE WORLDS and I wwant something to get my players in the right frame of mind for it.

I'd be inclined to use a song that wasn't already a show's theme song.

I've always thought this Alan Parson's tune was a theme song in need of a show.

There is also a song from NFL films that stands out.

Yeah, if he wants to use an existing theme, that's the obvious choice, although iI prefer this version:

The theme music from the movie Pi is up beat, energetic, has no lyrics, and is not very well known. If you have a copy of the DVD, this might be an option.

The Theme music for DS9 is some of the most moving and majestic star trek music out there, but it is easily recognizeable.

Tales of the GOld Monkey is brief and pretty catchy too.

The theme from Superforce has a little gravitas to it :)

ANy of these in line with what your looking for?
