12 Series Whose Opening Song Lyrics Make Perfect Sense

Many people don’t like to watch the opening of TV series. They prefer to skip this part. But sometimes it’s worth spending a little time watching episodes from the beginning to get to know the songs that open these shows. They can reveal a lot about the content of stories. Want to see only?

we, from awesome.club, we listen to the opening themes of cult series to find out what it’s all about. Admittedly, some lyrics took us by surprise.

‎Friends, 1994–2004

A lot of people just love the show’s opening theme. The song is performed by the American band The Rembrandts, and is called I’ll Be There for You. Who would have thought that a positive melody would combine with rather depressing lyrics?

So no one told you what your life would be like. Your job is a joke, you’re broke, your love life is dead. Like you’re stuck in second gear, It might not be your day, your week, your month or even your year, but.

‎Young Witches, 1998–2006

The opening lyrics of Young Witches are not related to witches or witchcraft. The song, called How Soon Is Now? (How Soon Is It Now?), is about a man who wants love but can’t overcome his own shyness. The first lines of the song are actually a rewritten text of the novel Middlemarch: A Study of Provincial Life, by George Eliot.

I am the son and heir Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar. I am the son and heir Of nothing in particular.

‎Supernatural, 2005–2020

Carry on my wayward son. There will be peace when you’re done. Rest your weary head, Cry no more.

‎Scrubs, 2001–2010

The melancholy song was found by series actor Zach Braff. The producers asked Lazlo Bane to play it at a faster pace. The musicians agreed and hit it off, as I’m no Superman became a hit. Subsequently, Braff even edited a behind-the-scenes video of the series.

I know what I’ve been told: “You have to work to feed your soul.” But I can’t do it all alone. No, I’m no Superman.

Dr. House, 2004–2012

The instrumental part of the song Teardrop, by Massive Attack, based on a simple harpsichord melody, became the theme of one of the most famous series of the 2000s. It was sung by Elizabeth Fraser, from the Cocteau Twins. The band was drawn to the vocalist’s flamboyant style, which gave the song a sense of hopelessness. Initially, Madonna was one of the candidates to perform the song, but Fraser was eventually chosen.

Tear in the fire, Fearless in my breath. Water is my eye, Most faithful mirror.

Hélène et les Garçons, 1992–1994

A girl, So tender and fragile at the same time, Sometimes she can suffer so much For the love of a boy.

‎Tropicaliente, 1994

Brunette who dances in the sea of ​​joy And makes the tribe fall into revelry. It’s getting good, the day… When you face It opens our hearts.

Peaky Blinders, 2013–2021

The opening theme is the song Red Right Hand, which has been used in the X-Files series, the movie Dumb & Dumb and the Scream trilogy. The translation would be something like “Red Right Hand”. This phrase is from John Milton’s poem Paradise Lost and means the punishing hand of God.

Hey man, you know you’ll never come back Across the square, across the bridge, across the factory, over the hill. In the coming storm, a tall, handsome man emerges With a dusty black coat and a red right hand.

The Big Bang Theory, 2007–2019

The opening song was written by the rock band Barenaked Ladies. The group’s leader read a famous book about the “Big Bang” just before a concert and decided to rap about it on stage. Luckily, the show’s writers were present at the concert and asked the musicians to record the soundtrack for their new TV show. Only one verse appears in the series, but a full version of the song was released in 2007.

Our entire universe was in a hot, dense state, and then, nearly 14 billion years ago, the expansion began. Wait…The Earth started to cool, Autotrophs started to drool, Neanderthals developed tools, We built the Wall (we built the pyramids), Math, Science, History, Unraveling the Mysteries, It all started with the Big Bang!

Rebelde Way, 2002–2003

If you can feel too much, you will cry, If you carry your fear, It’s because you are alive. Show your truth, Rebel way.

Vikings, 2013–2020

The first lyrics of the song are dedicated to the conquering spirit of the Vikings. The brutal warriors have not stopped invading neighboring states for more than two centuries in a row. The lyrics convey the behavior of the characters in the series who cannot stifle the desire for revenge, money and power.

This will never end, ’cause I want more, More, give me more, give me more.

‎Slave Isaura, 1976–1977

At the beginning of each episode of Escrava Isaura, there is a song with the strange words “ungazun garunge”. There is a hypothesis that these words come from a language of African peoples, but their meaning is not very clear. The song was based on the song Retirentes by the genius songwriter and singer Dorival Caymmi. In the original, there are no words “ungazun garunge”. They were invented for the series.

My love, I’m leaving, on this earth I’m going to die. One day I won’t see you again, I’ll never see you again.
