[net.music] Danger Mouse theme song

meier@hpfcll.UUCP (meier) (03/01/85)

Anybody know who does the theme music for the English cartoon program
Danger Mouse?  The voice is very unusual.  It's showing in the US on the
ARTS cable station on a daily basis and is one of the best cartoon
programs around - intelligent, funny, creative...

Terry Scott and David Janson are the actors whose voices are used for
DM and Penfold. Terry Scott has made a few records (and  commercials) using
a *childish* type of voice. Although I have not seen DM for a long time, My 
guess is that it could be him, but I do have a few resevations about this 
statement. I think it could also be Mike Harding, a *North Country* 
commedian/singer/songwriter who had something to do with the creation of
Dangermouse.

I saw a Danger Mouse video cassette the other day in a local video
store.  You might want to look at that as the credits on the case may
tell you.

By the way, Danger Mouse does not run on ARTS (now called Arts &
Entertainment or A&E) but rather on Nickelodeon, a childrens' network
that shares the same channel as A&E on many cable systems.
