100 Film & TV Theme Tunes Challenge

[melysllew]

awsome!! But how does that all fit on one piece of paper?????

[ajvankan]

@melysllew That's my piano teacher!!!! And I happen to know that he only has the names of the pieces he wants to play on that sheet in order of the keys they are in and so they just flow together.

[Maryrichard]

@melysllew My fine pupil Alexander is indeed correct. I just have the names of all 100 tunes in pencil on the sheet - I know the music for each by heart! PS Stay tuned for the sequel quiz to follow, which will be 100 songs :-)

[Maryrichard]

THE ANSWERS ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO VIEW!!

Please go to my website, linked in the clip description above (Youtube won't let me link the address in this message), and just scroll down to the bottom of the homepage.

Congratulations to everyone who's had a go - I'm still happy to entertain answers and field queries for anyone who would like to try the quiz.

Richard

[kagome121]

Holy crap, I only know like 30 tops, I'm to lazy to count. But still this is amazing!

[HerrHou]

Thx Richard.

I had so much fun and sleepless nights with your quiz.

Can't wait for the sequel....and of course the solution list.

I missed 17....

[MurrayMint42]

Thanks to Richard for running an excellent quiz and we can't wait for the sequel. To OTF - We await the sequel for a rematch!

[Maryrichard]

PS A SEQUEL IS COMING.... :-)

[Maryrichard]

As the quiz has finally been solved, 2 years and 2 months after I uploaded it, I shall now make the answers available - but not on this page as I feel that other people would still like a go. Watch this space for a link to the full answers soon.

Richard

[Maryrichard]

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!!!!

Team OTF have officially named all 100 correctly, in the right order. Many congratulations to them, and they win the prize of £10 (ok, I'm not a millionaire!) and more importantly the worldwide kudos and honour of victory. There have been 277 proper efforts / complete lists received so far.

Special mention to team MurrayMint42, who were stuck on 98 correct for several weeks and who were just pipped at the end.

Highest individual was Janelucille with 94.

[studioflip]

What's 22 please?

[Maryrichard]

@studioflip: it's a great theme by the Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, that comes from a film where David Bowie plays an English POW in a Japanese war camp

[Maryrichard]

No, 35 is not K v K and 54 is not Automan, sorry... 10 you gotta know, orpingtondood, you just GOTTA know!

[orpingtondood]

[Elisheval]

Haa-- caught than sneaky Angel tune in there, nice one.

[Elisheval]

Haa-- caught than sneaky Angel tune in there, nice one.

[MurrayMint42]

Looking for #35 and #54... I am willing to trade for verified correct answers :)

[HerrHou]

@MurrayMint42

If I would know these two, I would give it for free. Because I want to see the whole list of answers.

I hope someone give it to you, so you can get the prize.

[Maryrichard]

@MurrayMint42 Oh no Murraymint, has it come to this!?... :-) R

[phenomiq]

@MurrayMint42 think #54 is an old tv program called "Automan"

[jeremyl7890]

I'm going to start again. I will win that 'day of richard following you around to provide a backing track for your life'. Good prize.

[Maryrichard]

@jeremyl7890: Hahaha Jeremy! Reminds me of Peter getting his own theme tune in that episode of Family Guy...

[Maryrichard]

@gracibaby36: No, they've all been guessed at some point, just nobody's got all 100 yet by themselves! :-) Richard

[HerrHou]

Has anyone a hint for 54, 86 or 98???

[Acroastrid]

Hello,

Could anyone tell me the names of the music from the following numbers?:

5, 7, 8, 14, 17, 19, 25, 27, 28, 34, 35, 39, 43, 46, 48, 58.

Unfortunately, the clip stops by 5:47 so I haven't heard the last 35 songs!

Thanx for the answers!

Bye

[Acroastrid]

Hello,

I'm looking for nice sounds and I have heard a lot in your clip. Could you tell me which songs you play? I'm searching for a while now and I couldn't find anything!

Please could you help me?

Thanx

[Maryrichard]

@Acroastrid: It's a competition so I can't give out all the answers yet! But if you look through the comments you will find answers to a lot of the numbers you ask. R

Richard

[coygina]

@RadioactiveG madworld was made popular in donnie darko

[WesselingSensei]

BTW, 36 = Legend of zeld: Link to the past?! Overworld theme?!

[NicksGoinToHollywood]

[WesselingSensei]

@NicksGoinToHollywood

[WesselingSensei]

34 = George Bakker : little green bag. Is it a Tv tune?!

[Maryrichard]

@WesselingSensei: It's not a tv tune but this is a film and tv theme quiz - and it was definitely used as a film theme

[lilflyingmonkee77]

[WesselingSensei]

@lilflyingmonkee77

[RossMcColl]

Easy quiz is easy

[Maryrichard]

@RossMcColl: care to put your money where your mouth is? :-)

[homeschooler360]

And the last one, of course, is Charlie Brown.

[homeschooler360]

I can't believe nobody's said #19 yet! It's obviously Lord of the Rings! I believe it's #20 or 21 (too lazy to watch it again) is Chariots of Fire, though I can't seem to remember what show/movie it's from. #30 is Star Wars, #31 is Pirates of the Caribbean. #33 is Mission Impossible. #36 is The Imperial March. I believe it's #57, is the Flintstones theme. #59 is Spiderman. #60 is Popeye. #61 is Gonna Fly Now from Rocky. I knew you would put it in there! #77 is Indiana Jones!

[Maryrichard]

Lolol at "believe 20 or 21 is Chariots of Fire, but can't remember what movie it's from"
