Theme Time: A Mix
I could not think of a picture to go with this post, so here's this.
I was driving towards a coffeeshop on Friday when Home’s “Variations On I-Max Theme” popped up on my mp3 player. This got me thinking about other bands who have covered themes of any sort. Once home, I searched my hard drive for songs with the word ‘theme’ in them, then got to (very quick) work on the following.
Sometimes, it’s just that simple.
This is mostly instrumental, so apologies if you like words and stuff. I’m book-ending it with two live tracks by The Divine Comedy and Pulp.
Enjoy or something:
The Divine Comedy – Charlie Brown Theme (Live)
1) Pavement – Space Ghost Theme, Part One
2) Ben Tramer – Halloween Theme
3) The Wedding Present – Theme From Shaft
4) Lambchop – Theme From The Television Show Dallas
5) Spiritualized – The X-Files Theme
6) Home – Variations On I-Max Theme
Pulp – Theme From Peter Gunn (Live)
I’m sure there are many more out there – feel free to suggest some in the comments.
And in case you don’t know, Ben Tramer is everyone’s favorite sweary Scot, Aidan Moffat.

I didn’t know you were into home I heard they are good.
I’d have gone with the Twin Peaks theme from the Weddoes, but oh well.
