Since I've got a *huge* collection of soap theme mp3s (quite a few of which are in long and pristine form with no announcers), I thought I'd post them as downloads to share with people who love soap themes as much as I do. EDITED: I'm inserting a "Master List" of themes, songs, and links into this leadoff post to make it easier for thread newcomers to keep track of what's been posted thusfar.

Alright I have made a new folder in my documents ready for all the themes you have. I'm excited. The Another World theme is so soothing, I should listen to it before bed to calm me. :D |

Thanks for posting! I echo the sentiments about this AW theme. One of *the* best and it has a very romantic air about it. I love it, almost as much as I love the slightly more soapy (IMO, at least) theme that came before it. The orchestrated version from the album is just stunning. I wonder if that would be the same album that has an orchestrated version of ATWT's then theme song, but in a soft pop/soft jazz arrangement with an awesome midsection that wasn't included in the original TV recording. |

Dionne Warwick did a close for B&B? Wow, I never knew that and it seems it was relatively a short while ago too. |

Even though this isn't a soap theme, it's a lot of soapy fun and a cool flashback... Posted Image The Afternoon Delights - "General Hospi-Tale" length: 5:01 year: 1981 peak position on the Billboard Hot 100: #33 (#23 on the R&B Chart) DOWNLOAD LINK |

Once again, Matt, I love you! LOL's 1980 theme and LOV's 1983 theme are probably the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard in my life. |
