Joel Scarbury "Believe It or Not"

Believe it or not, television theme songs are no strangers to the radio. Think of "I'll Be There for You" from The Rembrants or "The Theme from St. Elsewhere" -- both songs made an impact on radio, particularly Adult Contemporary stations. Joel Scarbury got into the action back in 1981 with the "Theme from the Greatest American Hero: Believe It or Not".

Dave Grusin "Theme from St. Elsewhere"

Imagine picking up the telephone and dialing your favorite soft rock radio station to place a request for the "Theme from St. Elsewhere". This likely happened in 1984 when the NBC medical drama's theme song turned up on the Adult Contemporary Chart. The instrumental was composed by 10-time Grammy Award Winner Dave Grusin.
