Is it only me who doesn’t like the new style of the theme song for Star Trek: Enterprise? I think it is too lighthearted and not uplifting enough. I always have a lump in my throats whenever I watch the old version. Now, it is just comical. Why, oh why, did Rick Berman and Brannon Braga change the song?

The new theme song has some amazing qualities. It’s basically reminding us that this is where it all began. We all became ST fans and followed with a faithful heart. I personally believe that B&B has wanted to fill in the gap that we all wanted filled. We always hear references to Archer in the other shows and now we are watching the begining. This song was more designed for the fans and not the show. Its a tribute to the fans. As for all the other ST shows, the characters never really evolved and always stuck to its prime objectives. As for Enterprise, they stumble along the way and show more of our human side (we aren’t perfect). However, from their stumbling, these episodes and future ones will learn from their mistakes and bring us closer to the ST we all love. Be patient and really enjoy the theme song and see it for what it really is!!!

Hm.. wait.. help me out here, I’m confused.
Is it true that Diane Warren write and compose the song (I think in 1998)?
If so, then how is it possible that Rod Stewart sang it first in the 70s? (time machine?)
If not, then how could she dare to claim to have composed the song? (Even change the title of the song to “where my heart will take me”)
If anyone can enlighten me, please do.

Daine Warren did compose it in the 70’s. Any Rod Stewart fans knows he can’t wirte songs, alot of his bigger hits are covers. Rod Stewarts verson is on the Patch Adam’s soundtrack if you want to compare verson. To be fair though, conpare to Russel Watson’s verson on the Enterprise CD. As a big Rod Stewart, I think Russel did a better job.

The theme song for Enterprise did caught me off guard, but it grew on me and I like it now. In fact, I wouldn’t want the show to have any other theme song to play at the beginning. Still, the old Star Trek symphony is still a must for the show.
