Henry Mancini - Nadia's Theme

[jprc03]

For Nadia Comaneci.......The Olympic World Champion gymnast a stupid vsoap opera just happened to use it.

[Travilluminati]

stay tune for the young and the restless

[neptunesism]

That's from Mary J Blige's No More Drama

[foxyroxstar]

@neptunesism very excellent that Mary J did incorporate this famous work with hers but it's not from "her" song 'No More Drama but it's why I'm here!..to Search and to Find!...Henry Mancini the Greatest.....(I wouldn't turn down Mary J. Blige to Love MY friends in Pocomoke City, Maryland for a free concert yea!)..Rock n Roll!

[Helena17066]

I love you mami and I will miss you :C

[roryfitzpatric]

Im taking a dump to this.

[spudone1000]

@roryfitzpatric Dump You!!!!!

[roryfitzpatric]

dubstep this.

[bigdanbear]

Its like love, finding it, losing and then the wisdom that comes from it.

[MiniNinjaKittyofLove]

They played this song for a 9/11 video that I watched of people who were up close to the towers collapsing.... Now I can't help but think about the video clips whenever I hear this.

[nawdeeuhx]

My name is Nadia :)

[BigBobber19]

This song is timeless...it should be the new national anthem...then maybe the country could chill for awhile...OWS included!

[cocoagirl]

didn't realize the ending of the song is like a cliffhanger

[poidog44]

Did no one see Bless The Beast and The Children? Screw Y & R.

[BigBobber19]

Liz gets it.

[BigBobber19]

Do not confuse sex with love...that's the trouble with today's sense of morality.

[tedsler]

What does sexuality have to do with liking this song or not?

[BigBobber19]

One of the most beautiful compositions ever...I have written lyrics to it and subtitled it The Other Side of Midnight (with apologies to author Sydney Sheldon)...A love stirs to be free but is stymied by fear until the lovers learn that where midnight ends, love begins. Midnight of course being the lines drawn in the sand by the dictates of others.In the end, love conquers all. My compliments to composers DeVorzon and Botkin for their musical genius.

[rubio22d]

A buen entendedor con pocas palabras le basta...HENRY MANCINI(o)RICHARD CLAIDERMAN,el tribut al AMOR /LA VIDA/LA GENTE....atrabes de su musica...BENDECIDOS POR DIOS.

[hidalgo699]

This is so good for my ears

[SS4Xanatos]

Never seen the show itself - and I am not a soap opera fan so I don't plan to (no offense to those who like them) - but I love this piece! It is SO beautiful, soothing, calming. It is simple yet complex at the same time. Lol. :-)

[Mocaluos]

The Young And The Restless

[wlt777]

@Mocaluos Truly the most "Beautiful & Memorable" opening theme for a soap opera. :)

[tinaemek]

I have always loved this.. as a young child I played this on my flute <3

[ABALLAM3]

Five people do not understand great music when they hear it.

[wlt777]

Truly "The Best & Most Beautiful" theme songs of "All Time." :)

[TheMenon49]

MMMMMM! WHAT A BEEEEAUTIFUL PIECE! HENRY MANCINI AFTER ALL!

[Mrmetal10100]

5 faggots .l.

[7jpt]

@Mrmetal10100 No Mrmetal, gay men would love this song. We don't know who the 5 fools are.

[Mrmetal10100]

@7jpt and??

[Mrmetal10100]

@7jpt i love this song , and im not gay

[tedsler]

@7jpt what does sexuality have to do with this?

[DomBellicini]

@7jpt im straight and i love this song.

[shelbielynnVEVO]

5 people don't watch soap operas. What a shame.

[DorvellTStewart]

I hate Soap Operas, and only watch them when there's nothing else on or when I'm insanely bored.

That being said, this has always been my favorite soap theme! "Jalinda's Theme" from "As the World Turns" and "Hold Onto Love" from "Guiding Light" aren't that far behind!

[BillSalem]

What a beautiful piece! When it was used by The Young and the Restless, it seemed over the top in its drama. Like the Soap itself. But it is deeply felt. Rarely in this age of tuneless Rap and Hip Hop, do we encounter a melody which comes from the heart and as a result moves the listener--- yet it has a popular and very contemporary sensibility. 

[chenwenhua2269]

yes this is the MUSIC of our lives. The young and the restless. So beautiful.

[KeshaRose323]

Thts Beautiful and Nadia's my name

[peterandben]

TRON's gonna be mad...

[Gymnastar2016]

Oh, so beautiful..

 Cannot be forgotten.

[CENSURATUBE1]

Bella musica

[nininsco]

ME RECUERDA EL 5 DE ABRIL AL ENTRAR A LA IGLESIA........ GRAN SORPRESA!!!!

[chinobear311]

Unforgettable classic



[epsteinsmutha1]

Somewhere in his attic is a picture of Doug (Paul Williams, LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW) Davison becoming more and more decomposed and hideous as the years go on.

[notafanofrosebud]

@epsteinsmutha1 As in the shades of Dorian Gray...haha, I hope.

[epsteinsmutha1]

@notafanofrosebud That is the only possible explanation. You look at Eric Braeden, and he looks like an elderly German chap. You look at Melody Thomas Scott, Tracey E. Bregman, both still very attractive, granted, but not even Doug's buddy Rick Springfield still looks like someone got to 1981 and hit the PAUSE button.

Doug does. And apologies for leaving out the "d" in his surname.

[cutekyutkyu]

no more drama

[calchav77]

Mother, this song is for you!,

i remember so much the most beatiful and sweets days in my life: "Just when i was a child in your arms"...Thank you so much mother, love you...

[rockymen5776]

I've been trying to find this particular version of "Nadia's Theme" because it's my favorite version that I've heard, but I've been unable to find it - does anyone know who composed this version or what album it's on?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

[okokfredericaokok]

simply wonderful. the music and the most beautiful ever. BEAUTIFUL cry and cry and cry if I return to again listen to this song. I repeat: The MOST BEAUTIFUL MUSIC EVER

[munnonockspirit]

My dad plays this song. It's one of my favorites.

[howard6410]

Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!!

[troyboy1971]

This recording was made by Barry DeVorzon and Perry Botkin, Jr. Not by Henry Mancini.

[tickykissy]

i really love this song as being played in "the young and the restless" series

[andreirota]

On this song i remember my Penis :D

[VARTELOF]

[nholt]

I'm a big guy and this songs brings tears to my eyes.

[Glaxist]

@nholt as jack handy would say, "it takes a big man to cry... but it takes a bigger man to laugh at him!" LOL just kidding with you nholt. i love this song too... i was in high school when it came out, and it always brings back great memories.

[cvaliton1]

This was my wedding song 27 years ago, love it



[divinejulia]

OMG! I never knew this was an actual song... i was listening to the music chanel on t.v and this song came on  and i was like why are they palying the theme song to Y&R? lol!

[kendykillman69]

I am gettimg married 11-11-11 and this is the theme i am walking down the isle to i love it it is perfect..

[Sword30]

@kendykillman69 Congratulation

[Belle0010]

@kendykillman69 That sounds like a great idea

[MarkizVonSchnitzel]

sounds like classic ennio morricone. which is a good thing.

[HaloFSky]

The Bold and the Beauty

[DJPHILLY]

this song will remind me of my childhood in my grandparents' house, watching Y&R. we always had to rush home and re-arrange our days so nonna could watch. she doesn't watch much anymore, but this will always be her song to me. this is Nonna's Theme.

[Dancer3Thunder]

This is one of those songs that take you back to a better time. All peace and serenity.

[liketheuniverse11]

One of the most passionate songs I've ever heard....oh! my...makes me think of him....<3

[71Lenny]

Henry Mancini was such a musical genius!

[Electricninjamonkey]

I have been watching Y&R for literally over 10 years... and I'm 13. :) Love this song.

[Oldiesbuff925]

This theme has always brought me to tears, like now, and always wanted to play piano due to this...back in school when I signed up for music class, I listed piano as 1st choice, teacher quipped, "NO, that's MINE!"..well I ended up with sax, ugh please...anyway I was a small child when Y&R was on and my siisters had me watch and fell in love with Nadias theme...well each time I listen to it I kick myself for not allowing myself to learn...now, finally, at 45 am going for lessons : ) all due to NT

[ZeroRebirthFC187]

@Oldiesbuff925 Good luck with the piano lesson! :D

[4everoregon]

@ZeroRebirthFC187 That is an awesome story. I wanted to play drums in band, my teacher quipped NO, You look like a Flute Player!! In which I am thankful. I just wanted to play drums because my brother had a drum set. Not many girls played drums in 1972. Still can play Wipe Out! When you get that Piano down, I hope you up load a video of your self on Youtube! Good Luck!

[amaranthine283]

@Oldiesbuff925 Work hard! ;) :D

[MrJajeek]

@Oldiesbuff925 never too late bro.. love's going to end at the last moment of your life,if those lessons make you happy? just go for it....Im over sixty and would like to play the most instrument i obssessed with in my entire life-SPANISH GUITAR !!!

Good luck

[jesuspsr13]

@Oldiesbuff925 I tought myself this after seeing nadia in the oympics. I saved my money and bought me an electric piano. It wasnt easy. It's never to late to learn. pratice, practice, practice. good luck

[EllenSaile]

@Oldiesbuff925 any updates?



[liz326522]

@Oldiesbuff925 Its never too late... sounds like u have a passion for music. It doesn't matter how good or how bad u "think" u might be, its all about the joy that music it brings to you. I play guitar and piano, never took a lesson until now, @ 43 years old, I've started taking piano lessons to learn some music theory... I love it. Enjoy it for all its worth :)

[Renitamac]

@Oldiesbuff925 Sorry, but you had a bitch of a teacher. She should have been happy you wanted to learn it.

[CommunieNetwork]

Three 6 Mafia - Tear da Club Up '97

[bbbtm36]

A masterpiece!!



[MrRollerderby]

everytime i hear this piece, it was a reminder playing on the tv for a soap, that we had to leave, so i could get my shots to keep me alive, i will never forget it.

[Messylin]

Y&R will pretty soon be the last soap standing.

[ERQuincy]

This is true music - it makes you happy and sad. BEAUTIFUL!

[kirukim1]

My sister dance this in her 15 Birthday

[bishbashbosh2015]

this song makes me cry everytime

[tubeit123]

I dont feel sadness with this song...I feel hope and reminiscence and that if u set ur mind to do sth anything can be achieved.

[supernatural2029]

I learned this is topic the theme of Nadia but I don't know why is it called young and restless in the cd that I bought, btw I am mexican and my english isn't good.

[JERICE56]

@supernatural2029, No se cuantos años tenes, soy argentino. El tema ae llama Nadia, Joven e incansable xq era maravillosa, ademas se anotaba en todas las disciplinas y en todas ganaba medalla de oro.

[supernatural2029]

@JERICE56 BUENO SOY JOVEN PERO LE ENCONTRE EN UN DISCO CON EL NOMBRE YOUNG AND RESTLESS ALGO ASI Y DESPUES LO CHEQUE DECIA EN OTRA COLECCION DE MUSICA INSTRUMENTAL EL TEMA DE NADIA, THE NADIA'S THEME

[dandrigeamc]

@JERICE56 El tema se llama originalmente Cotton's Dream, si no sabes, no inventes maestro

[MrConfuserful]

@dandrigeamc El nombre es Cotton's Dream, pero es originalmente el tema de la novela The Young and the Restless.

[Trudermark]

Beautiful. ^_^

[MyAcedog]

What's THIS? No "The Young And The Restless" comments?I guess i'm the first(or maybe not).

[therapy572]

no more pain mary j blige

[zebrachickadee]

My grandma told me that this was played at her wedding. :)

[dprkforum]

Damn, this song is so depressing. Yet I cannot stop listening. Thanks for the song.

[TyrannyForYou]

I always think of my sister when I listen to this song. Her name? Nadia.

[das2761]

I remember the snowy winters back when this song first came out....what memories....thanks for the post!

[destinedforloveable]

WE HAD THIS FOR OUR PROM SONG IN 1977,,WAS SO LOVELY........THANKS HENRY

[sugar1700]

i love the young and the restless but sharon is getting on my last nerves.

[Crescendolls187]

Awesome. :)

[destinedforloveable]

@Crescendolls187 LOL

[adolfito1290]

Podran pasar mil años mas pero mis sentimientos nunka kambiaran k Dios t tenga a su lado

Join us again for... The YOUNG... and the Restless!

[edibecar]

Dios Mio esta melodia es hermosa hace que se escarapele el cuerpo, nunca pense decirlo pero te amo ... tu bien sabes quien eres te amo LACL

[kraucorcapavschi]

Simplemente, grandioso. Gracias.

[TheDewwe123]

how to play this song

[sacramentino2278]

I love the classics of Henry Mancini like this. I reminisced this song filled with colorful moments in my life.

[mariofan4523]

The only soap opera I ever watched, and that was when I was 17 years old! I loathe them with a passion now, as my life is a big F-ing soap opera!

[ShotX2]

@mariofan4523 --You got a very big thumbs up from me on that comment. --S2

[Ranlon]

This song was sampled on the Mary J. Blige track ' No More Drama ' .

[magnifico220]

que musica tan hermosa, soy de Mexico y siempre me gusto el tema de Nadi mi pdre me la ponia cuando teni 4 años ashora tengo 24 años y me sigue gustando gracias amigo por subir esta melodia

[twlightgal5]

I love this. <3 makes me so relaxed and helps me dispel my woes too. ;)

[bjnboy]

"The Young and the Restless, will continue after these messages..."

[DrxSlump]

If you stop relating it to that stupid soap opera, it's a beautiful piece of music.

[TheSassieSusie]

Awesome 

[hightek669]

This piece is so melancholy. Puts you at ease-- at such a relaxed mood, yet it can stir up many emotions, both happy and sad, both good and bad. Many things go through my mind when hearing this. I have always loved this lil' gem and it always reminded me of "The Young & Restless."

[notafanofrosebud]

I get a feeling of peace from this song because I can picture my friend and I walking through the job corps courtyard back in the seventies as the snow was falling and the song was playing from someone's radio.

[Managuense1]

@notafanofrosebud I know what you mean. Everything was so different back then for there was some kind of ingenuity in the air because there was no Internet, so we only had tv, radio or papers. So, the world felt huge, mysterious, and financially stable... There were no worries about losing jobs, and houses and cars were reliable.. And music was still romantic... Remember Feelings with Albert Morris? Thank God for music like this for we can still dream of a better, safer past...

[notafanofrosebud]

@Managuense1 We can dream of that past but still live in today's world. Keep a sharpshooter on your team.

[Managuense1]

@notafanofrosebud Of course!

[MrChrisdube]

"No worries about losing cars, jobs, or houses"... in the 70's. WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? The 70's were nothing BUT TROUBLE with those thins you mentioned. The only President in history who could challenge Obama for incompetence was Carter and he was President from 1976 through 1980.

Thankfully, we had excellent music like this to calm our nerves, and help us get through it all.

[Gioagla]

@MrChrisdube great comment , really great

[jcracker]

@MrChrisdube no remember, literally everything in the past was incredible and everything now and in the future is terrible, i.e. the mantra that every delusional baby boomer lives by for some reason

[619acacia]

@Managuense1 I know exactly what your're talking about. It's nice to know I'm not the only one. Thanks. :)

[chubeto100]

@Managuense1 right on everything except "cars were reliable". haha.....hahaha......HAHAHAHA.­.......HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHH­AHA.

[Marco007Marco007]

@Managuense1 What an ignorant statement. There are always ups and downs.

[tstoneking185]

i love this theme.it is my fav soap theme.of y&r..it is relaxing

[Scottthewolf]

Don't forget Henry Mancini also did the theme song to "Newhart."

[Keith77155]

It is Nadia's theme. But also on the young and restless

[martziano619]

Nostalgia. I'm proud to be Romanian, Nadia is truly a legend.

[kuraidjinn]

not to downgrade the piece AT ALL. But this sounds like something that could be in the CLASSIC game, "Chrono Trigger," yes?

[kcct179]

the song is for nadia comaneci??

[babylana70]

OMG! :D

Young and the Restless theme song!! love it!

[EKB316]

The Young And The Restless, No More Drama, Nadia's Theme. Now matter how you slice it and title it, this is a very beautiful piece.

[shyic]

no more drama - m.j. blige :)

[tubeuser314]

Simply Beatiful. God Bless

[TIHUA1000]

beatiful

[crudeoilslick]

WHAT WHERE YOU THINKING?

[harponercam]

Mary Hartman! Mary Hartman!

[jityr2]

I was never a soap fan either. My mom used to watch "Days of our lives" and I used to look at the TV guide a lot and turn channels and the stuff came to me at random. That's how how I remember it.

[DeathToTehFurries]

Note to self: play this on honeymoon.

[jhhwingnut]

@DeathToTehFurries  I smiled....

[pablorubiolugo]

Amazing song, very beautiful

[HawaiiRampageEX]

I love this song kinda makes me reflect when i was a kid in the 80's and didnt have a care in the world life was all about playing outside with friends and saturday morning cartoons no hustle and bustle

[tommerrigan1956]

i read it will be used as a theme song for "The Young and the Restless."

[TheAdorkable]

it was a theme song for "Young and the Restless."

[GayUOPXBoy10]

@TheAdorkable It is the theme song for "The Young and the Restless!"

[jityr2]

During the 1970's they used this as the theme song for a soap opera. It was either "Another world" or "Somerset".

[GayUOPXBoy10]

@jityr2 It is still use today as "The Young and the Restless" theme!

[logancody05]

@jityr2 It was, and still is the theme song for The Young and the Restless.

[jityr2]

@logancody05  So this song switched soap operas then.

[logancody05]

@jityr2 I don't think so. For as far back as I can remember it's been the theme for Y&R. And I think that goes back to the 1970's.
