Inspired by a lovely post by [personal profile] shirebound, here is the English-language main theme for Spartakus and the Sun Beneath the Sea (also known as Les Mondes Engloutis, in the original French), a French animated series (I seem to have a deep and abiding love for these) that aired between 1985 and 1987. We ended up watching it in the 90s and 2000s, due to much cheaper licensing costs.



From what I recall, it's a colorful, zany and quite unique production, while still remaining grounded in very human values and with some highly emotionally-charged moments. Something that's very specific to French animation and bandes-dessinees.

This is the opening for the show, with part of the theme in use:



What are some of the main musical themes for the shows from your childhoods? Feel free to share them with me in the comments.
