Tv Theme Boon (Full Theme)

Sometimes I sit yeah
Feeling alone
No one to talk to
I got no telephone
And at night I wake up
I just lie and stare
Come on and save me from this nightmare
Hi Ho Silver
Here come the lone ranger
He's riding on down
To rescue me
I know the road I must take
With a wink of my eye
I leave old friends behind like old alibi
I'll take all they throw against me
I make a stand
For truth and justice and for the common man
Hi Ho Silver
Here come the lone ranger
He's riding on down
To rescue me
And I guess it took some time
For me to decide
If you were just my hero or my friend
Watching with my innocent eyes
Your silver stallion ride
Across my room I listen as they cried
Hi Ho Silver
Here come the lone ranger
He's riding on down
To rescue me
Rescue me

Still an absolutely epic track, and forever will be known as the Boon song. RIP, Micheal and Jim.

[@cheetahpanther1306]

Love this song- awesome

[@templarknight2010]

I remember this being on tv when I was a kid..the theme tune just came into my head again today after all these years.

[@natbalmer]

Awesome blast from the past. Used to watch this as a wee boy with my late parents. Life was simple back in them days. What a great show.

[@dazza944]

This, minder, La Law, London’s Burning, all the memories of late nights with school the next day

[@andrewpearce1723]

Absolutely love this tune, was it me or were themes in the 80's and 90's so much better than now.

[@The_Foulmouthed_Cypriot]

Damn right. Epic tunes.

[@xr6lad]

That’s because often they employed real musicians to write the themes. These days it’s often an ‘off the shelf’ theme.

[@tomthumb9849]

Yep, Minder, Only Fools n Horses, The A-Team, NightRider, Baywatch(lol), also cartoons like Thundercats, inspector Gadget, Gunmy Bears etc, all proper fun classics you'd b humming all day!

[@rw8733]

Everything was better then.

[@stevenbell9223]

Much better back then ❤

[@drewbain1]

I've had this song in my head for the past few days. Reminds me of being a kid and getting to stay up late to watch it. Think it was on ITV at 9pm.

[@daveb8665]

Tagging you to put this song back in your head, 9yrs later @Drewbain1

Mate, Mrs asked when I had to go bed as a kid and this came in my head 😂😂 #9pmbedtimeclub

[@tomthumb9849]

WHO ELSE AFTER REDISCOVERING THIS CLASSIC FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE IT AIRED IN THE EARLY 90S, HAD 2 LISTEN TO IT AT LEAST 2 OR MORE TIMES? PERSONALLY PLAYED IT ABOUT 5 TIMES SINCE I DISCOVERED IT YESTERDAY, WHAT A TUNE! 🤗

[@Mick-Kahl80]

Had it on repeat since I listened to it last night for the first time since I was a kid. What a tune 💯💖

[@roddymac998]

It's started 86 dude. Did run for 9 yrs though. Loved it way more than Howard's way lol

[@rw8733]

Yep.

[@adib396]

Early 90's? And the rest. This started airing in 1986! Use to watch it then.

[@mttukhighintensity]

I miss the 80, s and early 90, s always watched this :(. Is it me or didnt life seem simpler then

[@lightofgoku]

no friend you are right , i blame technology for taking away that innocence of the 80`s you think about, i remember having to go to my pal door to meet them when nowadays if your not on facebook you dont exist lol

[@jamieschutt2248]

it did feel much better back then and it also occurred to me just earlier today that chrildrens tv was definitely much better if like me you grew up with bagpuss and ivor the engine??? happiest days of our lives.

[@PeaveyPV20]

massive +1. you dont have to even go back to 80s but early part of last decade was bettet before folk started liveing there livrs through facebook instead of face to face socialiseing down the pub. not to mention the horror that is internet dateing

[@CarlB_1962]

Matthew Lavender I agree - Facebook and the like would be better named "anti-social media".

[@KOKINGWAYNE]

Agreed, the best times ever was the 80's and 90's!

[@rodsreel]

Jim Diamond from aged 16 played and sang with all the rock and rolls greats like Genesis, ACDC, Gerry Rafferty, wrote for top American rockers, lived with them in the sates, Billed with The Sensational Alex Harvey and countless other great bands back in the day, discovered by the legend Father of British Bluesman Alexis Korner. Jims unique one off voice suited Rock and ballads, he became so much of peoples lives and memories a very loved musician all over Europe, The States, Britain and of course Scotland. He did achieve greatness in his musical life backed by everything from rock bands to swing bands and full orchestra's and is greatly appreciated by the legends of music and by the common lad and lass in the street who actually knows what music and personality is actually about. Keep an eye out for the shadow of the horse in the moonlight night!! RIP Big man and Thank You

[@paulharrison8612]

Very true TV is nothing like the 80s 90s it's full of stupid chat shows, reality shows where celebs get more famous by acting stupid...the old drama, Sweeney, boon, minder, Howard's way, professionals, only fools, porridge, open all hours... that was TV as I remember 😁

[@darrenwilson8042]

Listening as a tribute to Jim Diamond - great singer passed far too young. Boon was a series and a half too.

[@user-so8sb4vk6b]

And suddenly my childhood is coming back to me. It's such a shame shows like this don't get made any more.

[@mickymcdras1031]

I CAN REMEMBER WATCHING THIS ALWAYS LIKED IT. BUT I REALLY LOVE THE THEME SONG WHERE DOES THE YEARS GO.

[@markalexander7652]

By far the best theme song for any series ever made. This song was the reason me and mates went home to watch this ehrn it was on. Great series but it was the song that attracted you to it at least in you're youth days anyways. Jim diamond you are a legend and will be sadly missed!

[@jordancunningham300]

Great show 80s & early 90s were a better time 👍

[@U2QuoZepplin]

True. They always show old TV series' like this in great big chunks so that they don't last the way they used to when you were a kid, but if they alternate them a bit more , like showing several over the course of a day then the series will last longer and they won't run out of content so quickly. It's a bit of a shame the old Bravo channel went bust or something coz they used to show a lot of old TV shows like these

[@stephensutton4666]

Every time I see someone with a black leather biker jacket I say "Rocky" to this day. I was born in 1972 and left school in 1989 and it was the best time ever to be growing up. Technology had started to become more widely available and was actually enhancing our lives not like today where it's taken over our lives. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
