Haunting?..no..I was thinking more along the lines of background music you would hear in a scene with someone who is suffering with a bad toothache :P

I was always a big fan of the Blue Whale music, even though I wondered why they didn't use any popular Beatles or Rolling Stones songs of the day.  I didn't know about cheap Dan Curtis, who wouldn't want to pay such royalties!

I adored the very first Josette's music box theme and always wished it was the music used in my plastic music box from 1970.  The second one was OK, but did get a little wearing.

As for the other commonly-used themes, Quentin's became a hit on the radio, so I heard it ad nauseum, and was truly tired of it after a while.  Angelique's theme song in 1970PT wasn't used TOO much, so I was able to tolerate that.  

I hated Joanna's theme.  That music was so syrupy sweet, it could send a diabetic like me into severe shock!  

Generally speaking, I thought DS' music was dynamite and really added to the allure of the show.  

Love, Robin

Quentin's theme was nominated for a grammy back in 1970 >^.^<

I truly enjoyed all the tunes from DS..it's just that a few of them were totally overplayed to my ears anyway..Robert C..he's da man~~
