The Lone Ranger Theme

[lektraburux]

what the hell was that about?

[44skins]

Ahhh,...sweet, sweet Saturday mornings!!!

Do they still make Saturday mornings??

[RickDougall]

Weird fact: this track was produced by a young George Martin!

[luckyshow]

Now, think about what you've said. Proper TV show for children. First, of all, he's a vigilante as hero, but never mind.

The children that watched these shows, and Beaver and all the rest, we grew up to dress weird, use drugs, listen to loud music, both good and bad, disobeyed, eradicated most of societal rules. Brought up children with attention deficit disorders, a generation in thrall to brand & a lapdog at the feet of planned obsolescence as the golden rule.

Maybe today's crap does better

[bensdadfrank]

@luckyshow Yes indeed. We were brought up to watch what the"Greatest Generation" shoved down our throats, for the sake of profit. What happenned after was the result. Garbage in, garbage out. Who put the garbage in, and more importantly WHY? At least our generation questioned, and fought back. We weren't perfect, but neither is anyone.

[lincsposter]

I am so sad that a British Bank used this classical piece of music using the words The Lone Arranger and pronto! I apologise to the world!

[Calza321]

I used to watch this every Sunday before going to church, along with "The Cisco Kid".I had to hold the antenna so we could get better reception.

[hsumi1]

Isn't this the same song as the William Tell Overture?

[67claudius]

Certainly, this is the William Tell Overture by Gioacchino Rossini!

[shigenobu0]

@hsumi1 Yes it is.

[EmperorofCartoons]

@hsumi1 Yes, it is indeed the same song.

[abc12319525]

@hsumi1 it is the william tell overture

[L1S91]

@hsumi1 It's the 4th movement of the William Tell Overture

[gisytim17]

@hsumi1 yes it is the same!!

[MrElchalo]

kemosabe sounds like "Quien mas sabe" he who knows more

tonto in spanish sounds like the word tonto meaning stupid. I think it's kind of funny. anyway It was a good show.

[phamus]

It's Kemosabe

[txt23]

spock kemosabe from the kemosabes of Vulcano....

[KittenGoneBad]

What isn't well known is that Tonto called the Lone Ranger "Kenosabe". Which in spanish is Que no sabe, or "one who knows nothing". I expect that viewers expected it to be an aboriginal word for something grand.

Tonto is spanish for "stupid". I'm sure the actors and studio got a big kick out of this.

[fiftiesflashback1953]

KENOSABE is supposed to mean The one who is unknown, (El que no sabe.) hence the Lone Ranger is a masked man.

[andrew2little]

it may have been meant to be "the mand who is unknown" bit the extensive research of one dodgie looking sight i found translated it to "the one that does not know"

[phamus]

It's Kemosabe maybe you're stupid

[centralmac100]

Some of us just saw to men of different backgrounds , the best of friends .

[lauriebooth]

Those were the days, proper TV shows for children.

[joesphx19]

@lauriebooth

Yes, they are forcing our best days behind us, so sad for the children.

[MORKOS621]

@lauriebooth One thing, though. The Texas Rangers were established to fight Indians. Now, here's the last of a troupe of them being aided by an Indian.

[lauriebooth]

@MORKOS621 Poetic justice.

:)

[0208name]

[whatatube11]
