The Knightmare main theme - what a rush...^^
-
7-8.
By the way, the ringtones are still available on knightmare.com and on www.thegreatestquest.co.uk
For those of you with phones with polyphonic ringtones....the best thing to do is get hold of a Knightmare midi file and use ifnrared or a data cable to get it on your phone.
But yeh I prefer 7-8 - sounded more dramatic somehow.

I preferred the final one too (especially the scream/sigh at the end that set the atmosphere so well), although there's a slightly different version of the closing music that plays occasionally during S4 that I rather like too.

I think i preferred the later opening titles. Better theme music, generally good all round

OK, I know this is a poll question on the main site, but which version of the theme tune do people prefer, and why?
I myself am sort of torn between two.
I love the original theme because it brings back the most memories, it's the one I first think of when I think of Knightmare, so as a nostalgist it wins hands down.
HOWEVER, as a musician, I love the series 4-5 version best, because it has the most "epic" feel to it - the big orchestral arrangement, although no less anachronistic than the 80s synths when compared to the period the books are set in really conjures up images of noble knights going on great adventures.
As for the series 6-8 version - that should never have been allowed to happen. It was symptomatic of the dumbing down of the series.

Series 1-3 shall always be my favorite!
