Has anyone noticed that the theme songs from the sixties and eightes have the same rithym but different lyrics?..

The basic music is the same, but the 80's series has a slightly different arrangement, as well as different lyrics.

The 2003/2004 series is totally diffferent. The Japanese opening theme is sung, but the English theme is instrumental techno music.

Many versions are existing from that opening theme. So far I heard 2 different french openings, 2 different english openings and the original japanese theme from the 80's; but all have got the same melody.

The "astroboy everywhere" theme? you're joking, right? :wacko:
Last time I heard it, it stuck in my head for all the afternoon! A real pain! It is even worse than the 2000s English techno opening sequence compared to the Japanese one <_<

Hey Faf... It's a theme. What? I like it. It's bubblegum Tekno.

I guess tastes is each one's business I'm sure there are many things I love you would hate

LOL, first time I heard both, I thought they sounded alike too. I prefer the 80s theme, even if it IS hard as hell to make out the lyrics if you don't already know them.
