Josette's Musicbox
« on: August 01, 2002, 06:04:29 PM »
I have to say after hearing Josette's Musicbox today (for the millionth time now) I find that to be one of the most annoying tunes >:(
It was played waaaaaaaaaaaay too much in the begining of the Barnabas/Maggie storyline. Kinda like the playroom tune will later...and Angelique's theme.. Is it just me.... that these tunes get on my nerves after awhile? :-/

Actually, I rather like Josette's music theme, but I prefer the first, older version of the tune.  Hey, anything's better than hearing Dr.Lang's taped message, "if both live" over and over again.  Im still not sure if we've heard the last of that one yet. ;)

HEY!

Actually, the one that got on my last nerve was "London Bridge is falling down." The music box I can stand. :)

Hello Cassandra...I agree with you..the older one is  more haunting sounding..It's not that I don't think all the tunes are  ok..it's just that..they played them too often...(at least I thought so).
Strange but I never tire of hearing the background music ... ::)

I agree... of all the themes and background music Robert Cobert composed for the show, the beautiful and haunting Quentin's Theme remains my favorite.

Another theme I find quite beautiful is Joanna's Theme from the 1840 storyline, also used as the love theme in Night of Dark Shadows.

:D Mike...I forgot about that one..I have to agree with you there,the music in NODS (Joanna's theme) was captivating..I also think the opening theme to Dark Shadows is quite haunting in itself~ :-*

The music box never bothered me (though I do prefer the first version of the song.)  I was never a big fan of the playroom theme, but the Blue Whale songs (all two of them) always drove me batty.

The music box wasn't that bothersome.  As much as I hate to admit it, I eventually grew really sick of Quentin's Theme.  Just show the man and get it over with!  But neither are as bad as the playroom song or London Bridges.
