The Galaxy Angel theme song is petty radical.

Ceres - Scarlet
Inuyasha - Fukai Mori

Life is not about us using God for our purposes, but about Him using us for His purposes.

Faith is not creating a false reality, but acknowledging God's promises for us.

The dreams I dream for you
Are deeper than the ones your clinging to
Let the old dreams die
Like stars that fade from view
And take the cup I offer
And drink deeply of the dreams I dream for you
-Avalon

Ah, My Goddess TV series opening theme "Open your mind"
Pretty song, great video sequence.
FLCL closing theme "Ride on, Shooting Star"
Makes me want to "air guitar".
Samurai Champloo opening theme
Must be the only rap I ever liked.
(although, if I didn't associate it with a highly repulsive
series, I would also like the opening theme to "Gantz"
Noir opening theme "Coppelia's Casket"
Wins the "Most Obscure Allusion" award for its title.
Noir closing theme "Beautiful Emotion"
Heartbreakingly beautiful
Now and Then, Here and There closing theme "Komoriuta"
Just as beautiful, even more heartbreaking

And my all-time favorite:

Patlabor "Midnight Blue"
Gives me happy feet.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May He cause His face to shine upon you.
May He lift up His countenance and grant you peace.

I would have to say my favorite theme songs are:
"Half-Pain" from Witch Hunter Robin
"For Fruits Basket"
"Yakusoku wa Iranai" from Escaflowne
"Hemispheres" from RahXephon
"Beautiful Emotion" from Noir
the R.O.D. Opening Theme
and "Duvet" from Serial Experiments Lain

I probably couldn't decide a favorite if I had to, it would all depend on my mood at the time.

I would have to say the Wild Arms TV theme song. I can't remember it though. I also like Naruto.

ALL of you need to go and listen to "Kokoro no Chizu" (One Piece 5th opener).
I just can't get enough of it! XD
And a bit of "We Are" (1st) and "Hikari e" (3rd). :3

Oh, and some others (most have been accounted for...):
"Ready Steady Go!" (hey, it's good)
"GO!!" (4th Naruto intro)
"Obsession"
"Through the Night"

Wild Arms TV does have a good theme song. I just finished watching that show about a month ago. Although the game has a better theme song. Ever heard that one?

Full Moon wo Sagashite has a fantastic selection...And...I ADORE the opening!! It's so cute!! Also, I really like "Angelus" from InuYasha. DANCE SONG! XD Seriously, that song makes me want to dance! Anyways, I have an attachment to Every Heart (InuYasha), too...It was the ending theme that played during my first months of watching the show...Ah, memories!

I love the (4th?) ending theme for Rurouni Kenshin, too...4th Ave. Cafe! Sooo catchy! Also, Yuzurenai Negai, from Magic Knight Rayearth...LOVE it! What else...Well, I couldn't possibly leave out Tank! and The Real Folk Blues, from Bebop. And I also love Words that We Couldn't Say, even though it's not literally a theme song. Ready, Steady, GO! and Rewrite are two more favorites from FullMetal Alchemist, and Ride on Shooting Star, from FLCL, is an awesome one, too. Oooh...And Loosey, from Bakuretsu Tenshi! It's odd that I like that song, because it's sort of like J-rap(and I hate rap with a passion, haha), but then again, it's really jazzy, and SUPER catchy. I hate the anime it's from, though. XD

Oh, and uh...Kaze wa Mirai ni Fuku, from Trigun. I don't know how...it grew on me. ...Stop giving me weird looks. :lol:

"Fly me to the moon" - The Forbidden Series

And the Live Hina theme.. it is happy-time!!!
All sin can do is threaten us with death, and that's the end of it. Grace, because God is putting everything together again through the Messiah, invites us into life--a life that goes on and on and on, world without end. - Rom. 5:21 (Msg) :cool:

Since last time I posted to this thread, I thought of a couple more...
"Junk Boy" - Maze original end theme.
"For Fruits Basket" - Fruits basket beginning theme
"Small Prayer" - Fruits basket end theme.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May He cause His face to shine upon you.
May He lift up His countenance and grant you peace.
