No TV series’ theme song has ever gone harder. That hurdy-gurdy is mad genius.

[@debiprasadindrajit5870]

Never skip the opening title song. It prepares you for the chaos that unfolds in each episode, which is always unpredictable.

[@mikeyplondon]

My favourite ever fact about this, that Bear has spoken about, is that he was just tuning/warming up the hurdy gurdy and it made the sound you hear at the start of the track. He thought it was cool so hit record. He said he's never been able to recreate that sound again. To me, THAT'S special.

Most underrated TV Serie of all time.

[@pericopacino]

Best intro to date I miss this show dearly. Why was this so underrated??? The intro give you chills it does something to you.

Battlestar Galactica, Black Sails, God of War... Thank you Mr. McCreary!

Can't believe I'm just now getting to experience this awesome show

That still slaps in 2023..

So this was filmed here in South Africa, and I met randomly many of the actors during work days, and one of them I call a friend, he played the only ever Pirate Sniper. Such savagely great series. Each episode left me feeling like I was in a paranoia high after smoking an entire 10grams of weed. Or something, the actors had me in their grip throughout. Not a single chain watched second went buy that I felt an easy feeling of certainty of outcomes.

One of my absolute favorite theme songs!

[@zonesquestiloveunderworld]

Such an amazing underrated series, I'd easily rank it alongside other classic period piece TV series like "Rome", "The Borgias", "Hornblower", "John Adams", "Wolf Hall", "I, Claudius", "The Forsyte Saga", "Da Vinci's Demons", "The Winds of War", "Versailles", "Peter the Great", "Quo Vadis?", "Pillars of the Earth", "Sharpe", "Fall of Eagles", "World without End", "Masada", "The Tudors", "Poldark", "Vanity Fair", "Cadfael" and "Marco Polo" (the 80s one).

Ohhh bear - I hear you everywhere and KNOW in my bones it’s you- for NO ONE touches the same way

[@Mayor_Of_Eureka17]

This song is how sobriety feels for an Irish man on St, Patty's day! 8 years strong!!

[@TNAralwaysfun]

Brilliant theme with an absolute gem of a show

[@thedoner67]

Rolling Stone has a list of the top 100 TV theme songs of all time and this isn’t even on it. What a joke. It should be #1. What a unique and powerful piece of music! I’m just rewatching the series, which is absolutely outstanding in every aspect. This intro NEVER gets skipped!

[@carloslozanoentrena4722]

Best intro song ever written!
