I'm stumped on the classic theme

Who did the theme…I tried Google but can’t seem to find the definitive answer…I know Rembrandt did a cover. I found on Wikipedia it says theme by heart. now if this is true then awesome. I grew up with a crush on ann wilson so that would blow my mind if it’s true. I just can’t find proof of anything on it yet. if true I wonder if there’s a record or something that was releassed…???

If you mean performed it originally, I have no idea. Of course it was composed by Bernard Hoffer, but I’m guessing you knew that already. Certainly it’s a woman singing the lyrics, although who I don’t know.

It’s like the only place it says anything is Wikipedia “opening theme by heart.” I be ecstatic but nowhere else has any other information.

I must admit I have my doubts. If it was Heart, then I think we’d know about it as they’re pretty big after all. If anything, they’re too big to have done that at that time, I’d have thought. Thundercats premiered in 1985, which was when they were re-establishing themselves with their eponymous album that included hits like “These Dreams” and “What About Love”.

The ThunderCats theme music is pretty memorable, so if anyone owns Hear the Roar!, it contains info on who sang the theme music.

Hope someone will look at it.

The theme was sung by session artists Margaret Dorn and Peter Thom.

Thank you. I knew it was too good to be true.

Never heard of either of them. As for the Heart theory, apart from the reasons I stated above, the vocal didn’t really sound like either of them - too low to be Ann, too ballsy to be Nancy.

Is it this Margaret Dorn?

It could be, she has credits going back far enough. Weird that Thundercats is not listed on her credits if it is her though. You have 4 more days to find out through IMDB before the forum packs up.
