I wasn’t born yet and I agree , nowadays it’s so depressing . Seeing my parents enjoy their youth seemed so amazing , I didn’t experience the same experiences. No phone , people were more engaged in life
@@brendah4701😢 I completely agree, many folk are like programs now. Most people don't behave as a human, technology plays a huge part in the separation and division from humanity and individuality.
It was a good day when they rolled out the long closing credits. Really, for all of them. AMC, ONE LIFE, RYAN’S, EDGE. Even LOVING. They all had epic closing credits. So theatrical.
This theme was the best GH ever put out! So sophisticated and yet the show was hip and edgy. It gave a professionalism you don't see today... And yet, it is embedded in our minds forever as a great memory!!

This theme, along with All My Children’s violin theme and One Life to Live’s theme (Not sure of name but it starts out “Here’s What to Do When You Don’t Find the Rainbow’s End..This Time...); along with The Price is Right theme & cues; bring to mind memories of the more “pleasant” side of being home from school sick during the ‘80’s.
Those days where when GH had it's premier cast! And for those who aren't or weren't aware, that cast included the awesome Rick Springfield for a couple years before he left in early 1983! It was his exposure on GH that helped generate the popularity of "Jessie's Girl" during the summer of 1981 which made him globally known! I remember well about those days while i was in grade school (was in between 3rd and 4th grade that summer) because my mother was the biggest GH fan i knew! I dont think she missed a day of it for a couple decades stretch!
I love this theme song from the longest running Soap opera of all time is General Hospital on ABC in 1976 the year I was born Genie Francis was a great actress and a well respected woman on television too!!!! I watched it every day after school when I was growing up!!!!! Thanks for posting this video!!!! I love it!!!! I love the 70s!!!! Can you dig it!!!!!!
Speaking of the great Genie Francis, I vividly remember her TV wedding to the equally great Anthony Geary in '81 because my mother was a gigantic GH fan! I was in fourth grade that November! She and her equally talented real life hubby Jonathan Frakes from Star Trek The Next Generation just recently celebrated their 35th anniversary!
What was that storyline? I remember the character because my mother would watch it some during this time,but she was devoted all the way to ONE LIFE TO LIVE.
@@barebackslut600Grant Putnam seeked vengeance against Robert Scorpio who he blamed for the love of his life Celia and her death, it took a few years for him to come back to get vengeance and he went to those closest to Robert, so Anna became his prey and victim and hostage of whom he kidnapped to bring Robert face to face with him. Yes definitely a great story.❤
There are four actors from those credits that are still on payroll.. Leslie Charleson.... Tristan Roger's... Kin Shriner and Emma Samm's anticipated return!🎉🎉
@@foodforinsomnia7026The long version was played on Fridays, but this is not the version of "Autumn Breeze" used on TV. This was a re-recorded version that appeared on a CD of popular TV themes.
@@James-uu4ko This version was not used officially by the show for ABC broadcasts. This is a variation that was used only on an album/CD release of popular TV themes. I should know, because I own the CD. If you visit the following link, you will hear the version that was used on-air. Although it is the same composition by Jack Urbont, there are slight differences in the instrumentation. th-cam.com/video/zF1JP6fyEfU/w-d-xo.html
Wow!! The cast crawl ended at 46-seconds. And there was a beauty-shot until 1-minute/38-seconds!! They would never do that today! Too damn greedy!! That would be about $200k in lost revenue!!
@angelalombardi4780. Yes, Demi Moore got her start on GH back in the early 80s. There are numerous of clips here on TH-cam during her appearance on the show.
i wish these times never left---1980's truly a memorable decade
Listening to this does make me long for those days.
@BruhTV much good health to you sir! absolutely, really sad how bad things have gotten since the great decade of 80's left us!

I'm sad cause we as old school folks who remember this want to go back😢
Ain't that the truth!!!
Yessss
Yep but the last 2 themes were jamming Faces of the Heart and The sirens
I really love this theme song doing my school days brings back a lot of memories.
It’s very relaxing.😊

Instantly takes me back to my early childhood! 😢
I’m British and adore old American daytime soaps. They’re so over the top.
I was walking In from elementary school at this point & hearing: “Hi. This is David Hartman. Tomorrow on ‘’Good Morning,America”……..,,
Love this closing theme!!!! 😃👏
Same here

One Life to Live
Abdul Houser Thank you!
@@AJ-in5gu Welcome
It's the Peabo Bryson theme! OLTL
Peabo Bryson came on the show and sang it. The theme was used from 1984-91.

Please stay tuned for “The Edge of Night” next on ABC!
No doubt voiced by the legendary Ernie Anderson.
@tsntana EON was a really great soap as well back in the day. Just love their dramatic court trials and murder mysteries.
@ It was great it’s my top favorite soap but I feel it lost its “edge” in early 1982.
1983 literally was the best year in ghs history!!!
@hhhxb9py. Disagree, the years 1978 through early mid 1981 where the best years in GH history.
Great theme the 80s was a great decade
1983 I was 4 years old lol use to hear it all the time my mom watched it all the time
I was 1
GREAT MEMORIES!!
Love how Robert was simply known as "Scorpio".
Tristan Rogers
Best part starts 1:15. I remember they played the entire theme to completion when Diana Taylor was killed.
Wow this memories thinking about my mom
"A boy fights back against bullies and wins the girl, an ABC Afterschool Special, next on ABC"
Gh best year 1983!!...look at the cast lineup!!
Something about this theme!
Abdul Houser reminds me of walking in from school back in the early 80s
Omg! Im 46 such BEAUTIFUL Memories
@@MMAfighter38113 right? Kind of makes me sad hearing it. Reminds me of my mom.
Very melancholy for me, the memories this brings back of my family, my life then and how much things have changed
Flashback to the 80s this theme gave me life as a kid
The Grant Putnam storyline was a classic, but David Grey was phenomenal.
What was that storyline? I remember the character because my mother would watch it some during this time,but she was devoted all the way to ONE LIFE TO LIVE.

Princess Diana herself was a fan of the show
Something's of the past I do miss
My favourite GH theme music!
Same here
Yes great then and all those great people like demi moore and rick springfield and jack wagner.
There are four actors from those credits that are still on payroll..
Leslie Charleson.... Tristan Roger's... Kin Shriner and Emma Samm's anticipated return!🎉🎉
Nice closing theme
87K views now, but back then we could not wait to switch channels hehe
It's worth noting that this is the CD release version of theme, and not the one heard on TV.
This was the long version they played on Fridays. Monday-Thursday was a shorter version.
