A melancholic acoustic song, the instrumentation and sad optimism echo the previous decades. Set against the black comedy style of the show, Johnny Mandel’s soundtrack Suicide Is Painless stands on its own as an acclaimed piece of songwriting. The spin off series from the film of the same name, M*A*S*H ran into the 80’s long after the Korean War, during which it was set, ended. But that aside, composer Bernard Hoffer nailed it for 80’s rock. The ThunderCats, who were Thunderians from the planet Thundera who held the Sword of Thundera? Definitely a theme.

Dramatic and production heavy, with better guitar solos than you would hear on today’s chart records.Īdmittedly the word “thunder” is a little too frequent to count as really great lyrics, but that was pretty symptomatic of the whole show. Despite being the intro to a children’s cartoon about a band of space cats battling the mutants and their mummified leader Mumm-Ra, the music is just a brilliant piece of 80’s rock.
