The most incredibly underrated and undiscussed aspect of this theme tune is the way the tone and pace of the lyrics has been made to mimic the two-tone siren of a fire engine.
It took until I was an adult and showed Fireman Sam to my 2 year old nephew to realise this.
HOLY FUCK YOURE RIGHT!
....
*realisation*
HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT
😮
People really put a lot more thought into theme tunes back then.
“Does the Welsh fireman cartoon really need a guitar solo?”
“I believe it does, yes.”
It was the 80s. Everything had guitar solos back then
@dylans.1741 Like a song called "Rush Hour" by Jane Wiedlin. Why not check that one out?
Good to see that it's nostalgic @@dylans.1741
I actually became a firefighter with my local brigade and I played this on my car stereo on the way to my first shift. Best experience ever
+Rex97 good choice. Or you could have played the London's burning theme
Damn that sounds really cool
Respect to you my friend!
@@peterwilliamskelhorn6675 or Fireman by Lil Wayne
Now YOU’RE the hero next door!
this has absolutely no right to slap this hard.
Hits harder than my dad's belt!
if you didn't grow up with this version you missed out
also this was the first video i watch in 2024
this is objectively the best television theme song ever produced
That, and Ducktales.
Greatest American Hero has a pretty good one

Much agreed . The eighties were a time of explosion in culture and music. Boy, I wish I grew in it at times. The original Thomas was the heart of my childhood and only saw the modern take on shows like Fireman Sam wnd Postman Pat. But now I appreciate the older shows always so much more and that of the themes. They are aren’t kiddish like now a days, they’re art.
Born in 1996 I am very thankful I was probably part of the very last generation of children to witness these old shows in stop motion pre CGI. Kids now probably prefer CGI and it does look better granted but can't beat the nostalgia for those of us who have grown up on the old stuff!
Kids don’t prefer CGI executives prefer CGI because it’s cheaper to render it than animate in stop motion
The reason that CGI has taken favour in children’s media is because it’s less expensive
I was born in the mid 2000s and I grew up with a ton of these older shows as I owned them on dvd
@@Melo23982 Me too
This doesn't hit quite like remembering 1995 and watching this 😅
Genuinely one of the greatest songs ever written
Truly
this theme really brings out the 80s feel
SquidKid this is from the 80's
The whole guitar solo from 1:26 to 1:42 is actually legendary! It's so good!
I’m playing my air guitar to that!
This whole song gives me Full House vibes....
@thebcplayer it’s actually a keyboard solo with a guitar filter
I like to think of Elvis playing this solo lol
@@Thatchannelnoonelikes_only the middle part of it is, the rest is actual guitar
Fireman Sam Rating
1987 Perfect!
2003 Noice!
2008 WTF???
2017 AAAAAAH MY EYES!!!!
Wait, what happened in 2017?
@j4y33k4y j4y Fireman Allah will be the best. Inshallah!
This.
Mason MacDonald probably shittier CGI and Norman getting dumber and more annoying idk I’ve only watched the classic episodes and the stop motion and a small bit of the CGI (gave up after one episode) stick to the classic ones and the stop motion
John Crichton Sam is a good Christian man
Me: yo, pass the aux cord
Friend: you better not play trash
Me:
So nostalgic it gives me shivers XD
True, There's No Denying That The 80s Had The Best Kids Theme Songs, Danger Mouse, The Trapdoor, Postman Pat, Thomas The Tank Engine & Friends, Fireman Sam, Well, The List Goes On & On & On!
Same. so much better than the new CGI bullcrap!!
I strongly miss these stop motion shows that were around when I was kid. Another from the same company as this was Joshua Jones, but there was also Postman Pat and Charlie Chalk from the Ivor Wood company. Oh, I nearly forgot the Trapdoor, that was another one.
@@spinballpac-man I LIKE CGI FIREMAN SAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PhantomStrider Strider's a Fireman Sam fan? Well, to quote the man himself...
"Great fires of London!"
Kids shows in the 80's had the best themes ever composed
Most agreed!
Absolutely.
HampshireNutjob and this also showed why the 80s is probably the best era to live in, I wish I was alive back then
Yes sir
Old fireman sam has nothing to do with new fireman sam or 2003 fireman sam
When he hears that fire bell chime,
Fireman Sam is there on time.
Putting on his coat and hat,
In less than seven seconds flat.
He's always on the scene.
Fireman Sam!
And his engine's bright and clean.
Fireman Sam!
You cannot ignore,
Sam is the hero next door.
Driving down the busy streets,
Greeting people that he meets.
Someone could be in a jam,
So, hurry hurry Fireman Sam.
So move aside, make way.
Fireman Sam!
'Cos he's gonna save the day.
Fireman Sam!
He's the one we adore.
Sam is the hero next door.
When he's fighting fires,
He's always cool and calm.
And everyone admires,
When there's a fire alarm.
The way he never tires,
He always sees it through
And that's true.
Hey!
So move aside, make way.
Fireman Sam!
'Cause he's gonna save the day.
Fireman Sam!
He's the one we adore.
Sam is the hero next door.
So move aside, make way.
Fireman Sam!
'Cause he's gonna save the day.
Fireman Sam!
He's the one we adore.
Sam is the hero next door.
If your kite's caught in a tree,
Sam will climb and set it free.
If you're stuck give him a shout.
Sam will always help you out.
Hooray for Fireman Sam!
He's always brave and strong.
Hooray for Fireman Sam!
And when there's something wrong.
He'll always be along
To help both you and me
Don't you see.
He's always on the scene.
Fireman Sam!
And his engine's bright and clean.
Fireman Sam!
You cannot ignore,
Sam is the hero next door.
Everybody knows
Fireman Sam.
Dressed in his fireman's clothes.
Fireman Sam!
Well, we've seen him before.
Sam is the hero next door.
So move aside, make way.
Fireman Sam!
'Cause he's gonna save the day.
Fireman Sam!
He's the one we adore.
Sam is the hero next door.
He's always on the scene.
Fireman Sam!
And his engine's always bright and clean.
Fireman Sam!
You cannot ignore,
Sam is the hero next door.
Come on, Sam!
Fireman Sam!
It perfect
@@Fireboltman22 I thought it was suppost to end with sam is the hero next door but the theme faded away when it was still going on
@@jamesmartinandbbccontinuities well I think it is sposed to be part of the song ??
I grew up watching tapes of this when I was younger back in 2010, and it's the best fireman sam in my opinion
Even though I was born around the time of cgi fireman Sam, thanks to some old video tapes I was able to grow up watching the *real* fireman Sam
Thank goodness for your generation
I'm raising my kids on the original shows. Postman Pat, Pingu, Thomas the tank Engine, Bob the Builder and of course the legendary Fireman Sam 🚒
@@jacobmassey3897 don't forget super Ted
And I used to watch the The 2003 stop motion series
@@AECEntertainment as well as Bananaman count Duckula Bertha and trap door
This is the first time I'm hearing this extended version of the song and I think it's better than the original length
I know, it's pretty rad to discover a song you love has an alternative version to enjoy
Agreed!
This really works well. The extra lyrics rock and this sounds way better than the newer version we have now.
Never realised you were a fan of Fireman Sam!
I've been a fan of the show since I was little.
Y ju
CraneProductions27 Me too Ross me too. The stopmotion and CGI series might not be as good as the original but they are both still great and underrated if you ask me.
So was I and still am.
I never watched this show growing up, but the theme song goes hard. I think I probably would have liked this show if I had watched it as a kid
When I was a toddler, I actually phoned the fire brigade and asked for Fireman Sam. XD.
Lol. Are you for real?
lol i done the same when i was young. i said help theres a fire at the floods house. the woman told me off but my mum had ago at her because i was only like 5 at the time and was autistic and still am. still shouldnt of done it
.-.
Joseph Marrison Really? I’m lucky I didn’t do that when I was a toddler!
I did the same lol
This genuinely sounds like something you’d hear, or at least be able to recreate, on a Nintendo 64.
I'm Welsh & I loved this when I was younger
WE MAKIN' OUT OF PONTYPANDY WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
this slaps so hard wtf
So glad I grew up to this version of Fireman Sam
18 people had their houses burned down by one of Norman Price's pranks
lol
19 mow
It's now 25
oof
HampshireNutjob
Sounds like something CGI Norman would do
An underrated nostalgic late 80s classic
Don't mind me, writing this for my own reference:
Coming to this after Leafy from BFB said the word "Fireman" to Firey in the last moments of BFB 30, and it instantly gave me flash of memory. And I had just finished watching BFB at this time, one year late.
The fact that "cool and calm" and "fire alarm" are in this song is scary because they are in the 2002 revamp lyrics.
+Anthony Alzamora Yeah, thank god xD
+Anthony Alzamora i was born in 2002 and i think the second revamp started in 2003

STUPID!!!!
This is brilliant I’ve had this song in my head all day
I’ve had it in my head all bloody week!! It’s when the beat’s so bouncy and the singer’s so invested...like Mona the Vampire, Dick & Dom, Count Duckula, Digimon & Gummi Bears, just to name a few
Excellent, forgot how good this is.
I got my 2022 recap today and apparently this is my most listened to song of the year.
Put this song on for my boys earlier. It brought me away back to when I was a kid and brought back happy memories. This has got to be the best theme song ever for a cartoon show. Loved the first episodes of fireman Sam compared to the recent ones
The only kids theme tune I can think of that has a killer guitar solo.
0:16 This Fireman Sam The Original Series Theme Song Is So Funky. I've Loved Disco Dancing Fever. Thanks Mate. X
One of the best kid's theme songs ever written.
Never watched this show, but the song and animation style remind me of my childhood, in a kids' toy/public television kind of way. :)
It's a nice song to listen to on a rainy day.
I had original vhs videos of Fireman Sam as a kid along with Thomas the tank engine, Postman Pat, Brum, Pingu and many more. I wish I'd kept them just for the pure nostalgia since I don't have anything to play them on anymore.

Back when shows weren't reboots ❤❤
I hate it when shows get ruined because of CGI bob the builder and fireman Sam and Thomas and friends have had this done too them there really nostalgic but then it gets ruined
Edit:I rewatched the old and some new fireman Sam episodes the new one are alright never will be the level of the original
Edit 2: still bad
Ye true just saying but it became shit when they added black people
Exactly the writing Took a nosedive
I love this with all my heart :)
🎵 He’s always on the scene! Fireman Sam! 🎵
🎵And his engine's bright and clean! Fireman Sam!🎵
never grew up with this show but can i say that this theme is straight fire!?
This theme really is such a banger! Truly the 80's gave us some of the greatest show themes ever.
Always mishearing “Engines bright and clean” as “Engines bright green”, yet HourofPoop replaced it with “Engine is John Cleese”
נכון סמי הכבאי נועם את מלח הארץ
another kids show that was ruined by CGI
It's all because of UK taxation for animation, that's all.
NWR1991 yep but why why do they butcher our shows when were kids why
+NWR1991 Oh is that the reason? I asumed it was because it was easy to just shove somebody onto a computer and make him puke out the lowest quality 3d models they can get away with. I really wish there was more animation of models. On the bright side, 2D animation on flash has gotten to the point where it isn't horrible to look at.
+triple h fan 7 Well they wouldn't dare show the original series. We are politically correct now, don'tcha know? We can't have Bella with her stereotypical Italian phrases and Dilly's bitching at her regularly for it. XD
Tozzywozzy01 Blame David Cameron, he's got half the IQ of a cornflake.
My ratings for Fireman Sam
Series 1-4: classic
Series 5: very good
Series 6-9: terrible
Series 10-: how dare you
Hearing this song makes me feel like I'm 5 years old again.
I love that slap guitar in this. Sounds a lot like Sponge

@@kidtomme No it's not. CGI is gay
@@kidtomme no you're gay
This is just a hunch, but something tells me Sam is the hero next door
How did you possibly have that ridiculous revelation?
Definitely one of the best kids show theme songs of all time.
My happy childhood memories 🥰
I wish this was still the theme song!
Back when the shows actually respected the kids' potential cleverness, but today, they focus way too much to respect them, that at the end, I can easily say that they are being purely hypocritical.
They usually never outright stated the morals in shows like sam or thomas in the older episodes and respected the viewers intelligence. To put it short they didnt think we were stupid.
This song goes so hard fucking hell
A trip back to 1984/85, with the pre-Kings Cross disaster uniforms consisting of: polymer helmets(without eye shields) woollen Jackets & waterproof yellow trousers. A different world, but the best theme tune of all of the eras of Fireman Sam.
BBC series fireman Sam show was my favourite as a kid in the early 90's . the old fireman Sam theme song still put a smile on my face !
Weird how chill this low tempo version is
Bravo Dave Gingell, Dave Jones, Rob Lee for creating the Hero Next Door! Bravo Ben Heneghan and Ian Lawson for composing. And definitely bravo Maldwyn Pope for singing this!
I can imagine Elvis doing the guitar solo.
This really was the true fireman Sam not the cgi nowadays with all the character changes and everything that doesn’t make sense.
Listening to this makes me feel about 7 again.
Used to have all the videos back in the days
Canny beat the PROPER Fireman Sam.
Makes me feel about 5

This is so nostalgic and classic!
I remember firemen sam and again it brings back memories and I could watch this for hours on end
So I also have this theme and others from this kids tv show uploaded here on RUclips, do we have to now mark our videos as "Made For Children" under the new regulations for COPPA being introduced in a few days time, and will failure to do so, result in a heavy fine, or will RUclips automatically adjust it for us? This COPPA business is very confusing?

I love the original classic fireman Sam series from 1987 to 1994
Same!
I grew up with the cgi version then one day I discovered the 87’ version and I never went back to the Cgi version after that day 😂
Love the guitar solo in this wee tune.
Fireman Sam should be something to be remember during the time of this theme song.
this theme is a straight banger!
Everytime I hear everybody wants to rule the world it makes me think of fireman Sam...
1:09. Sam is the hero next door!
He always saves the day from the past, present, and future!
unironically good holy fuck
I love the 80’s rock pop into that song. I love the original Fireman Sam more so than the CGI one.
kidtommes world shut up
@@kidtomme it's great not terrible
Its amazing are and nostalgic why do you say stop motion is cheep it take more effort and love than cgi. You violated the rules about old shows.
@@amaruqupictures Your Violating My Right To Have My Own Opinion
@kidtomme the logo person you just did that to me, buddy.
I remember watching this on Jim Jam back in 2013.
Cool That Also My Favourite Fireman Sam Theme!👍
Have you got the FULL soundtrack? If u have please upload the song that was used when Trevor Evans is traveling in his bus. I can't find it anywhere :(
omg I forgot that I commented this XD
Amber The Fangirl and I forgot that I watched this very video when I was younger.
Nostalgia and memories are killing me...
I Used To Watch Original Fireman Sam On DVD In My Childhood
I love this theme and era the most.
This song is just the most 80s song ever.
I like this music.
My childhood in a nutshell me and my mum used to watch this all the time as a kid
This is my Jam man!
Season 1-4: Love youuu
Season 5: Kinda love you.
Season 6-8: Hate you.
Season 9-onward: Wow, shut the heck up.
Okay
Kids Today: We Watch Paw Patrol
Me: BITCH AIN'T NO CGI SHIT ROUND HERE, THIS OG FIREMAN SAM
Call me a facist if you want, but I actually think this series went from strength to strength, plus I like the new characters like Tom and Moose although the original theme tune was the best intro.
I wonder if this music could be used at any Fireman Sam 1980’s movie credits.
Who’s here 2024
This song slaps
This theme kinda made me cry 😢
Maybe because of the nostalgia
@@Wilsonsupremo oh
I love this new theme I love the interments and the people signing
The classic perfect song
My favourite episode of Fireman Sam is Spot of Bother when there was a fire at the fire station and Norman drew chicken pox on his and other people's faces!!!!!!
I remember a cat was stuck in a tree and i remember saying we gotta call fireman sam. Not jokeing
