Arthur Theme Song -- All Four Endings

Показать описание
Yes, I'm alive. Let's just say I haven't been able to be as active as I've wanted to due to life absolutely bogging me down.

So, here's something of a little-known fact, and something completely different from what I usually upload. The Arthur theme song actually has four different variants to it; they're pretty easy to miss, but they exist none the less. In the early seasons of the show, they rotated the song through about four different variations, with the difference being the noise you hear when Arthur falls. After about the fourth or so season they seemed to pretty much quit doing this and now they only ever use the first variant, but it's still a neat thing to know about.

The variants, in order of appearance in this video, are:
V1 -- The standard "glass shattering" one. This is the one you hear on all current episodes.
V2 -- Same as V1, but now there's a "boing" thrown in.
V3 -- Water splashing
V4 -- A stack of tin cans falling over

It's nothing much, but it often gets glossed over and I thought it'd be fun to share. Sorry about the quality; KNCT doesn't reserve a whole lot of bit rate for their PBS Kids subchannel. Oh well, you don't need to see anyway, it's hearing that matters here.

All copyright belongs to their respectful owners. I will take this video down by request of any of the rights' holders.

I heard all four versions growing up. They ditched versions 3 and 4 after season 3, and used version 2 until season 7.

I knew there was more than 1 variant of the theme song! I remember seeing the one that sounds like cups falling and being completely thrown off.

You can find V1 on pretty much on all Arthur episodes from the time
You can find V2 on some Arthur releases
You can find V3 on reruns of the earliest Arthur episodes
You can find V4 also on reruns of the earliest Arthur episodes

I still don’t understand how Arthur was able to fall off the logo, immediately after D.W. says “Hey!” to him. He’s on the TV screen! He can’t hear D.W. ...Can he?

Ziggy Marley: Everyday when you're walking down the street,
Everybody that you meet.
Has an original point of view.
D.W. *laughs*
Chorus: And I say hey! (Arthur: Hey!)
What a wonderful kind of day,
If we could learn to work and play,
And get along with each other.
Ziggy Marley: You gotta listen to your heart, listen to the beat,
Listen to the rhythm, the rhythm of the street.
Open up your eyes, open up your ears.
Get together and make things better,
By working together.
(Chorus: Oooh)
It's a simple message,
And it comes from the heart.
Believe in yourself, (Woman: Believe in yourself)
For that's the place to start! (Chorus: Place to start)
Chorus: And I say hey! (Arthur: Hey!)
What a wonderful kind of day,
If we could learn to work and play.
And get along with each other.
Mr. Ratburn: Hey!
Chorus: What a wonderful kind of day. Hey!
What a wonderful kind of day.
Kids: Hey!
Arthur: Hey! D.W!
D.W: Hey!
Arthur:
(crash/explodes)
(Letters Shattering)
