@BruTube No I can't, especially now that there is only 5 soaps left on TV. "GH" and "OLTL" theme song doesn't seem to fit in as a soap opera type theme song. They are more into the rock n roll type theme. Only "DOOL" and "Y&R" has stayed true to their themes. I which I could say the same for their storylines.
@coolwafferman Amen to that. Electric guitars and electronic drums have no place in a soap theme. I never liked when a classic theme was replaced by music with a rock-edge to it. Thanks for your reply.
Well done,especially mixing the instrumental version of the theme with the vocal version. As far as I can tell it's the only place that you can find that version on all of youtube.
Yeah kinda rush to put this one out back some months ago.
If you look off to the side you noticed what I put down Alexander by mistake but no mistake with Joan Collins, playing her. It's what I wanted. And yes Stuart Damon is or was on GH but I heard they was considering him for the role once. I thought I would add it. Boy oh boy a lot of people sure do get upset over that.
This is my favorite music of all the Guiding Light themes--"Ritournelle". This makes me very nostalgic b/c it was the theme that was used when I first started watching GL when I was a little kid who had no right to be looking at such a program! I don't remember the background vocals though, but had heard that there was a verson with vocals. Nice to hear it finally.
WOW..I had never heard that 'chant' before......So that is what it sounded like back in the day (pre-1977)? When I started watching back in 1977-1978, that 'chant' wasn't there...Loved this music though VERY MUCH
This is wonderful too. Could you imagine hearing something so elegant and delicate as a soap theme today?

Some interesting casting choices here. I like the return of Bea Reardon, but is the implication that she married Mike Bauer?

It was the female chant used on GL until 1977 replaced by strings! Remember the "sunlight through the leaves" opening from 1975-1981?
