My theme song is Django Jive, a number I wrote for one of the GFSA Challenges. I did a bigger arrangement of the number and we use this as our theme song for our band. This is the original recording.

Killer! I don't any of the numbers we've come up with deserve lifetime theme tune status yet but they do fit some of the band members better than others...

+1 to Pete. Thanks for sharing that with us.

I just love this song. Resonates with me on many levels. The words, the melody, the crazy-awesome electric guitar, the chilled acoustic guitar, it's all just so awesome and touches something deep inside my soul ?
Lyrics:
I've been out walking for hours.
I've got something on my mind.
How did we get here? where are we going?
And why is life so hard?
I read the stories, see the photographs.
World's in a crazy space.
I've got to hold on to my dreams;
There's just no other place.
There's just no other place.
Chorus:
I believe
we can change anything.
I believe
we can rise above this.
I believe
there's a reason for everything.
I believe
in my dream.
I've seen the shadows of the living.
Seen them turn and walk away.
And I keep searching for the right words
To send these thoughts away.
There's a picture I like to look at,
A picture of a beautiful face.
And I see something in her eyes,
Sends me to a better place.
Sends me to a better place.
Chorus
I believe
we can change anything.
I believe
in my dream.

Secret life - Leonard Cohen. I could almost have written the lyrics myself.

I see your Satch lyrics and raise you Tea Party lyrics ?
Alone, left here in dust
Amidst my fears and doubts
Life's shattered dreams
I could have done without
Now chthonic life has set its sights
on making me a slave to its ways
I wait for return
until then my soul it burns
and it burns
only for you...
i'll be with you soon...
Night it falls on me endlessly
I search for you in this blindness
A prodigy of lust and loss
'till sleep comes down
I can't explain, but the stain remains
Some treason I can't reason
They left me here for dead my dear
Barely breathing, but I'm still breathing
Now i see a light
I think it's shining from above
i think they've finally come
The halcyon days
and i'll be with you soon...
I'm crawling now
Up towards the sound
Of vengeance moving swiftly
I've conquered fear
I've shed my tears
Now I'm seething, and I'm still breathing
and I'll be with you soon...
Now I see a light
I think its shining from above
I think they've finally come
The halcyon days
Absolutely fantastic song. This song fills me with so much >☹ and ☹ but it leaves me with ?

I have two songs, same album
Forty Deuce - Standing in the rain
Its not a vid, just an audio thing... but the structure is perfect for me, a short solo not to intrude on the songwriting process, and Richie Kotzen just has such an awesome voice (to me)... the lyrics are one aspect... it shines thru for me, although others might find it calls for a minora blade... nonetheless...
Two songs later its countered with Nothing To lose
So to me its a question and answer scenario... making one complete theme for me

Actually this is a pretty hard ask. Here's Homeworld by Yes. It strums different nerves and makes a different set of corpuscles gyrate.
Nothing can take us far enough
Emotion... far enough together
As the light shines so bright
Bright enough to let us in
Nothing can bridge our souls'
Devotion... fast enough together
As the power proves you right
Right enough to let you begin
So many displaced among the future dreamers
Realised their doubles
Took a new step
A question of origin
Only in the recent past
Seeking for to realise
Skyward shone
Like beacons
A question of origin
Ten thousand millions free
To the westward light
The dreamers represent
This arc of peace
As the poets entranced
The anchor redeemed
Secrets of science
The history of the future
Was surely made
Just what keeps us so alive
Just what makes us realise
Our home
Is our world, our life
Home is our world
Nothing can take us far enough
Emotion... far enough together
As the light shines so bright
Bright enough to let us in
Nothing can bridge our souls
Devotion... fast enough together
As the power proves you right
Right enough to let you begin
Speak so fast to the prophets
Of the living
Looking for the signs
Spanning out the centuries'
Search for truth
Ancient ones... they watch
And listen
Carry our wishes
Took upon themselves to guide us
Through the endless skies
Just what keeps us so alive
Just what makes us realise
Our home
Is our world, our life
Our hope is our world, our life
I have seen the passion
That's in the hope that everyone
Will find their way into
The secret of
The home of your heart
Living within the vision
Within the power, beyond belief
We see that hate destroys the soul
Of anyone who tries to teach it
I have seen the dream
That's in your heart
That's in your eyes
To bring you closer to the one
It's what keeps us so alive
It's what makes us realise
Our home is our world, our life
Just what keeps us so alive
Just what makes us realise
Our home
Is our world, our life
Home is our world, our life
Send, ascending to the secrets
All is pure and clear to resolve
Nothing can change us now
Send, ascending to the future
Nothing can ever change us now
We follow the sun
We follow the sun
We follow the sun
Truth is a simple place
Here for us all to see
Reach as it comes to you
As it comes to me
As I will always need you inside my heart
Peace is a word we teach
A place for us all to reach
Sing as it sings to you
As it sings to me
As I will always need you inside my heart

2. It's Electric
[Originally recorded by Diamond Head]
I'm gonna be a rock and roll star
Gotta groove from night to day
Gotta blow my crummy job
Gonna blow my blues away
I'm gonna make a stand
Gonna make a million
Gonna make it with you
I'm gonna be wild my friend
I gotta push it through
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
I stop on red and I leave on amber
Danger paves my way
I'm gonna make it my friend
Gonna make it today
Gonna kick this dust from my heels
Down the highway I go
Gonna get the stars from my route
Make it in a rock and roll show
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
I stop on red and I leave on amber
Danger paves my way
I'm gonna make it my friend
Gonna make it today
Gonna kick this dust from my heels
Down the highway I go
Gonna get the stars from my route
Make it in a rock and roll show
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric

Maybe when you're young "theme" songs tend to be aspirational and optimistic. Later on they're likely to be reflective, more about what happened than what you're hoping for.
Unless of course you make it big, in which case you mind find that 40 years later you're still belting out the anthem that your 20-something self wrote even though you have grandchildren, divorces and several spells in rehab and your doctor has told you that some important internal bit is going to pack in soon unless you live on distilled water and brown rice.

OK I might need therapy after that post.

I find it odd how threatened people can be by someone making their own choices in life. I've been so tempted to drink just to make other people feel better, but it actually turns out I'm quite happy being a selfish person.
