Just wondering because I stumbled upon this Spanish Ducktales theme and it was beyond catchy. Not the same cheapo redub over an instrumental version that you'd usually see.

Anyone else got any favorites before I list a few more?

The German versions of theme songs are some of the best I've heard, mainly because German is related to English. Here's some of my favorites:

Animaniacs

Super Mario Bros. Super Show (the instrumental track seems to be different)

Pinky and the Brain (they even translated the text on screen!)

Chip & Dale: Rescue Rangers
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uo87FQZkfa4

Inspector Gadget (uses a different instrumental, and has lyrics, like the French version it was sourced from)

Freakazoid!

Cool! Thanks for the links. I'm familiar with some international openings to TV shows- as well as some international TV shows themselves- some are quite good.:smile:
