Talking If you had a TV show...

... and it was all about you (like the Truman show)...

What would your opening theme tune be and why!?!?

Meredith Brooks - Bitch (someone once said I could switch personalities like the song)

Or more likely:

Fun Boy Three - The Lunatics Have Taken Over The Asylum

Spandau Ballet - Gold.

The opening credits would involve plenty of slow motion and me punching the air a lot.

Well not since I got tired of hearing the song on the radio - only when it first was out!

Lol already thought about this one...!

It would be a shot of my legs to start with walking along a London street, then the camera would pan up to my face and then up to me looking at a tall building.

The theme tune would be 'Valerie' by Amy Whinehouse and I would have a voiceover over the top and credits appearing at the sides.

I've thought about this too much!!! Lol

Well there is this old Rave track that is mainly instrumental & during it when it fades here & there this Dude says "Make Way - here comes the Dreamer" & then the Instrumental kicks off again all mental like
The film would be Black & white & include urban scenes & coppice style woods & lanes.
Overall I'd say Ambient & Moody

Terrorvision - Hide the Dead Girl


Seriously a non-vocal version would make a great theme tune. Complete with lots short vignettes of daily life that end with a cheeky freeze frame, A team style.
