Oh man, I grew up to this OLTL theme song. So many memories, I miss those days in the 80’s to early 90’s.

I really miss watching on One Life to Live and all my children I believe it's a downfall of ABC cancelling the least two shows about they were on for such a long time 40 something years I followed it anyway thank you for let me publish this comment I really enjoy listening to the music of the shows at the very least thank you Lord for providing that on KZitem

I agree with you about missing the shows. But honestly, the soaps were not good anymore from the late 1990's onward. The quality dipped in so many shows (writing, acting and production). I guess they felt the hit with less advertising dollars. But these years in the mid 1980's to mid 1990's were the heyday and golden in my opinion. We didn't know it then, but the genre was never going to be the same.

One of my favorite soap opera themes, used from 1984 to 1991. Dave Grusin, who composed this theme, also composed the theme for "St. Elsewhere," another of my favorite themes, which is on his 1984 album "Night Lines."

It's in F major. The middle section (@0:52) shifts over to D major and he gets there through C# in the bass. In order to return to F major, Gruisin uses some nice pivot chords. (@1:06) Bass movement goes from G -> G# -> A-> (V of IV in F major) -> B flat - then we're basically in F major. Bbmaj7 -> Am7 - Dm7 - Bbmaj7 - Bhalf diminshed and we're back to a dominant seventh back to F major. I'm working on a piano sheet music arrangement for fun. LMK if you want it.

Right. I liked them more translucent, as they were initially (though I admit some pics were almost TOO vague & unclear). They later brightened some, while switching most others to the more solid reddish-sepia tone... What I didn't like is when they ultimately freeze-framed all the scenic backgrounds (save for the running dog of Cord's). That took some of the "life" out of this One Life opening.

Also around by no later than late 1987, 1988 the show's title logo at the of the opening credits went from multicolored to white. By 1989 or 1990 they eliminated that 2nd shot of the Llanview bridge after the title logo finishes.
