This soundtrack is very much like ours in German, same melody and similar lyrics ;). Oh, and it says "Maja" with a "j" in it because that´s how we spell Maya over here, our "j" is like your "y".
it says Maja because the original spelling of this name is MAJA. Maya ist the way you pronounce it and writing 'Maya' is just making it easier for english speaking audience.
Thanks for posting this - we had the same opening version in South Africa. It was a long-running children's programme in the 80's. I've been trying to find this version of the opening titles for ages now - so glad to have found the version my nostalgic self is accustomed to!
hahaha I've not heard this version of the theme since 1986! Thanks so much for posting it. BTV-6 Ballarat in Victoria used to have this show on air in the morning when I'd get home from doing the nightshift on the local radio station 3BA...I was 17 at the time...great memories! Thanks again!
Do you have any episodes of this? There's like two English Maya shows. There's also a American English version of it, but the songs were changed just like this one the soudtracks are not the same as the Japanese one's so there's like three soundtrack versions.
@AustralianTVClassics Can you please tell me how come Maya was spelled with a j like that, I know it clearly say Maya, but with spelled Maya with j sounded like y as the Polish j? Is this Australian English name spelled like that? But how come you never tell me 5 months ago of that and how come on your description you didn't tell why is Maya spelled like that, is that how the English alphabet j was also sounded like that, cause it's a Australian English alphabett?
Oh my, Maja the Bee? The name Maja was spelled just like that in Polish Pszczółka Maja and I check your channel and you live in Australia. Do they really also use the j instead of a y? In the Polish language they use a j sound as y sound, but Polish use a y, but used as the i sound like in.
XD I used to watch this when I was little

It's so weird to listen to the English version now when I grew up hearing Zbigniew Wodecki singing it in Polish.
