I recently had a discussion about theme songs.  This always reminds me of Ally McBeal, who often had a theme song that reflected what was going on in her life and that generally gave her some sort of inspiration to make it through her various trials and tribulations.  One of my favorites was Ooh Child — always soothing and inspiring during troubled times.  I think theme songs are a good idea, but couldn’t think of any that were as uplifting as some of the ones that came up as examples — Tubthumping, All-Star, Proud — so I turned to my iPod for guidance.  I found one that made me laugh out loud — it was so good, yet so inappropriate:  Good Girls Don’t, by the Knack.  So that was my temporary theme song until another came to mind.  It’s still not quite the uplifting and inspiring mood that I’m looking for, but it never ceases to make me smile:  All the People, by the Monroes.  "All the people tell me so, but what do all the people know?"

Any thoughts?
