Barry Gray - Thunderbirds Unused Theme

[babylon218]

Some things are best left forgotten...this...is definitely one of them.

[Uraby210Regenerated]

As bad as the new Thunderbirds movie was, at least it didn't use this theme.

[Plinth1]

Thank F***. Ruined childhood averted.

[matthewpeter]

tis a good thing they never used this!

Barry Gray did the James Bond Film Movie Thems... ?

I saw him in front of his house a Few Times. He lived near Me.

[ACtheLegend]

@Roadracer987654321 You're thinking of John Barry I think...

[Roadracer987654321]

@ACtheLegend

I think you are Indeed Correct. Thank You for the Clarification...

I haven't seen a James Bond movie or watched even the Credits of one in maybe three to four years

[TimelordR]

@Roadracer987654321 Actually, the original James Bond theme is credited to Monty Norman.

[Roadracer987654321]

@TimelordR Who was it wit hthe last Name Gray that had something to do with James Bond ? Wasn't there a Composer that was involved with the 007 Films with that name ? My last Bond Film I saw period was November 2002 : Die Another Day.

Please tell me there is only one more Daniel Craig Bond Film coming !

[SpeedTriple59]

Don Spencer..Cliff and The Shadows ,,did a record later for the film

[jrdube]

Thank the Gods it was NOT used

[VideoGr8Editing]

Same here!

[Torrespinaphoto]

The tune sounds familiar... I think they "recycled" it and used it (this time succesfully) with Joe 90.

[asceses]

LOL Cant think why they never used this ... is it safe to take my fingers out of my ears yet? ... ;)

[SUPERIRONHIDE1]

Lord almighty jheez thats horrible

[iphoneluvr]

Thats pretty terrible...

[ScarletAmbition2008]

Had Cliff Richards and the Shadows sang it more upbeat, might have become the most remembered theme.

[ggvidales]

I like it!, but yeah , It's good to hear it a lot of years later instead of knowing the show with this instead of the march, that would've been an awful sin :)

[Marshyman89]

Is a clip of this not used in the episode "'Ricochet'? when the radio is on at the end? If not its very similar

[SirBasildeBrush]

Wow! Well I never knew that. My childhood would have been so different...great post.

[CI5AgentSweeps]

This is a good tune on it's own but thank god Gerry Anderson decided to drop the vocal theme's like the one's he used in Fireball XL5 and Stingray :) You can't have Thunderbirds without the march though & I've read somewhere that this was scrapped as the end credits music just 2 weeks before the first episode was broadcast :)

[EQUINOXV]

A great TV series is also often remembered for its great theme tune and where would Thunderbirds be without the Thunderbird March. But god almighty! Can you imagine this as the official Thunderbirds Tune. Does not bear worth thinking about!

[Matt571]

@billyshoepack

I agree! Even thought the Fireball XL5 theme was cheesy, it was nowhere as bad as this! Imagine what would have happened if they had ended up using this theme!

[lenstera]

this tunderbirds theme sucks =P

[Bladerunner93]

Um...OK, let's never talk about this ever again...

[Matt571]

Is the singer the same one who performed the "Aqua Marina" song in Stingray? I agree this isn't a good song, it just doesn't go with the series and its cheesiness reminds me of the Fireball XL5 end theme.

[j3pfilms]

Yup it's the same singer

[Alfie4]

Yep it's Gary Miller. And come on everyone! This is a great song, but I do agree it's not as good as the Thunderbirds march.

[billyshoepack]

@Matt571 well I really agrre with that fireballxl5 comment, that tune seemed to fit, but this.... never ever again!

[EVERTONIC]

sounds like CAST.... john power to the people haha

[XYoungManX]

I am so gald the did not use this tune it is GAY

[ArccaToothus]

i'm kinda glad they didn't stick with this one

[zeesham13]

I agree, Or thunderbirds won't be as famous then.

[sandith752]

1 thing when my dad was young he loved this so much and now he ........

[richman02392]

they tried to do what they did with fireballxl5 and failed but still it wasent used so all is okay

Thunderbirds RULLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! lol

[rtyu890]

Good grief, the awfulness!! Its so nasty and bad!!

This theme certainly needs International Rescue to come and save it from the deep pit its falling into.

[VideoGr8Editing]

Isn't that true!

[whhyyyyyyyyyy]

good this has never left tracy island

[DerrickThrossell]

Mmmmmm. Best left on the cutting room floor!!

[loons13]

fab

[kingjimsixsix5]

ya the one they used is far better than this.

[YKW2]

He-he, I think they made the right decision
