Andy Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 You know we belong together... The Courier-Mail 20 July 2006 YOU know we belong together. You and I forever and ever. No matter where you are, you're my guiding star. And from the very first moment I saw you I never felt such emotion. I'm walking on air. Just to know you are there. Hold me in your arms, don't let me go. I want to stay forever. Home and away with you each day. Alert readers will immediately recognise these golden words as the theme song to Home and Away. But there is mounting concern that it will never be heard again. This week they've taken to going straight from the recap of the night before's action into that night's episode, eschewing the elderly yet still fresh theme song. People aren't happy. Darrell, who phoned in first thing yesterday, has been watching Home and Away since day one, 1988, and he says he's not thrilled with the cutback. A spokesperson from Seven said that once they get through this run of bad luck on Summer Bay they'll bring the theme back, it's just that right now, with so much happening, they need every moment of airtime they can get, and so the song drew the short straw. Seven also confirmed that new opening credits are being filmed in about a fortnight to keep things fresh. Let's see what happens to that song then. One of the Seven employees on It Takes Two might do a version themselves on Sunday night -- it is after all a duet.
zozalina Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 I'm glad to hear the credits will return! I can't wait to see what they do to them when they film new ones. I never thought they took them away to give them more plot time. I guess it makes sense. Thanks for that, Valk.
jack4martha_forever Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 Thanks for that. People have been wondering whats happened to the credits. And the reason behind its disappearance is exactly what i thought. Them needing more airing time. Woot. But im glad their working on a new one. Hopefully one with Jack and Martha together. That'll be awesome
~Lynd~ Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 THANK GOD!!!Thanks,Valk!I'm glad we arn't the only ones who think it'd be a crime to get rid of the credits and song.The song is part of the shows history.
Guest Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 I can't wait wonder what they will do this time and we have to wait untill end of year for it to come in NZ
matty and luke forever Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 Thanks Valk. Thank god we are getting new credits. Hoepfully they won't be a s cheesy as these ones.
jack4martha_forever Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 does anyone know who sings the Home and Away song?
Guest Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 Yeh I hope so I will chat to you all after school tomorrow
shen Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 Yeah I guess they want a new "fresh" look for the show and it's a good time to add Brad and Drew to the opening credits!
James Martin Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 Currently it's sung by the Roberston Brothers, but really it needs new vocalists.
