FlashBack Friday: CLASSIC Cartoon theme tunes

For those unfamiliar with FlashBack Friday's (click for previous episodes), it's a post I do as many Friday's as I can. It's the post that I always enjoy doing because whatever I do brings a smile to my face. Can only hope it does the same for you :) It's a 90s baby free zone more time I'm afraid. Apart from my teenhood stuff, you get jook (Jamaican phrase for "unlucky pal"). And today is probably one of those posts. But you can read if you like (obviously)

I would have liked to continue my TeenHood Crush FlashBack Friday, but Flintstones is 50 years old today! #RandomFact This was my favourite cartoon as a youngster



Over the past couple of days old cartoon theme tunes come into my head. So in line with that, I'm going to share the classic retro cartoon theme tunes. Some of the theme tunes were so good I remember them, but couldn't tell you whether I enjoyed watching the show. This goes out to my crew who woke up before Live & Kicking. In the time prior to SM:TV Live. Emma Forbes and Andi Peters time. 081-811-8181 time, (not 0181). Win a NES/SNES with the gun and Duck Shooter game time

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is up there in my favourite cartoons of all time. Michaelangelo being my favourite. Had the game on the GameBoy and all sorts. Can't embed the opening titles so click here

Another favourite of mine, Inspector Gadget



I don't care, I'd actually put these tunes on my iPod for a frustrating day. I could post bait ones like Pink Panther, but that's like EXTRA bait and isn't that fun or cheesy. It's actually quite cool. I prefer these ones as they are much more retro:

Chipmunks



Ducktales



Chip 'N' Dale: Rescue Rangers



Pinky and the Brain



Animaniacs



Captain Planet ending was much better than the opening



Talespin

p.s. Cos I'm such a badman, I just clocked that someone used the Flinstones melody in dancehall

Wu-Tang's in-house "Chef" better known as Raekwon proved he is still a force to be mentioned alongside the hottest rappers in the hip hop game with the release of Only Built For Cuban Linx... pt. II - sequel to his 1995 debut album. Marvin Sparks caught up with the hip hop legend to discuss rapping for drug dealers, people caring "more about stats than raps", his inclusion in MTV's Top 10 Hottest Rappers list, and converting to Islam. Marvin Sparks: It has been almost fifteen years since the first Only Built For Cuban Linx, an album that was a 5-mic classic when The Source magazine held weight. Why did you decide make a sequel?

White band win Reggae Grammy x Koffee x Skillibeng

So a white American reggae band called Soja won the Best Reggae album award at the Grammy's? And you care because? You feel Jamaicans are losing reggae because the Grammy's (a white institution) gave their white American man award to a white American reggae band? You blame the Jamaican government for not showing enough love and support to the music because this is the result? But you don't realise you are giving the Grammy's that much power and don't see where the problem lies? Well let me tell you; the problem is within you. I understand the outrage. Jamaicans built the music and are rarely compensated for all the hard graft. There have been countless examples of the music being used by someone else, often to better results because we live in an ignorant and racist Western world. Historically, white reggae artists like The Police or UB40 are able to achieve better results in the white man's world than reggae artists that are far superior to them. Bruno Mars , J...
