I have to say some of the coolest pop songs in 1980s and early 1990s were from cartoon TV shows. Every once in awhile, I can be humming along these cartoon theme songs. Thanks to YouTube now, everybody gets a chance to relive the experience and do some karaoke cartoon show tunes. So, here’s my Top 40 list of the best cartoon theme songs from 1980s thru the early 1990s.
1. Saber Rider & The Star Sheriffs – There’s no better chessy glamrock song than Saber Rider & The Star Sheriffs.
2. Jem & The Holograms was truly outrageous.
3. Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers – “no guts, no glory!” The theme song makes me want to do some electric air guitar.
