I miss these happy times in my life. So excited to sit down with my family to watch The Love Boat...and of course sing the song too. Just hearing that music made me teary-eyed. I want to go back!
I have the love boat on NOW, 10-1-21.. THEY REPLACED THE SONG! No Jack Jones! Not sure, think its Dionne Warwick. No offense, BUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!
I loved this show as a kid! Just out of no where today I started singing to myself this theme song and remembered most of the words lol. The 80's was the best time to be a kid!!

I was 5 years old in 1977; but I still remember this song when it was played on TV in Taiwan in that era. This just brought me back to my childhood. Time can't not roll back. Such a wanderful era.
This gets me emotional! Being a little kid watching this on Saturday nights! Ohhh, I love that show and still do! Bring back lots of memories! The theme song is awesome!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I love this song I worked on the original love boat Pacific Princess and Sun Princess in the 80s many times the tv crew filmed on board during winter months Great years
Gregory Austin, is this original opening and closing credits / parts of song of season 1 ever recorded together into one Love Boat song to listen to in its entirety ? I've learned there are various versions with other lyrics not added into this original song of this show. The other versions of disco, Jack Jones re-singing just isn't my cup of tea version of this tune.
40 years later , I listen to this music. Irronically I was born in 1977, when this series and the song came out. Now after 40 years, this music keeps me in a good swing mood, not to mention that I listen to the song while I was at the beach. Thanks for playing 😎🇺🇸🗽
Eternamente enamorado de esta canción. Es la introducción más hermosa que escuché en mis 55 años que me transportan a esos años 70 con mis padres, mis amigos y mis sueños de niño.
This is the absolute best recording I've heard, and certainly the best one on RUclips. Everything is crystal clear, crisp, and you can actually hear all of the individual parts...from the bass to the cowbell. Thank you for sharing!
Are you a brownie hound for TV theme songs ponderosa prose. Hahahahahahaha hahahahahahaha 😆. Try the theme song to lost in space y the 1965 avengers theme where Mrs peel dawn's her black leather cat suit, S E. X. Y. Have a great day. Y God bless you.
I was 10 years old in Memphis and in love with Julie. Great orchestration!!! I didn't know Jack Jones then, but in 2023 I'm diving into his catalogue.😊 Rest in peace Suzanne Sommers , Three's Company is amother favorite.
This was a great show , and that's a great theme , by a great singer Mr. Jack Jones . Every week you went on a cruise what's not to like . The audio is outstanding
I hear this song playing in my right ear,I have the gift of clairaudience,and my spirit guide I think is telling me to come hear and look at comments, not sure whom I'm suppose to contact! I'll keep trying. I keep hearing the instrumental of this song,and I don't know why! I'm not on drugs or alcohol,it's coming through loud and clear. High strangeness! Peace Love and hugs Gerri
One of my all time favorite theme songs for a TV show...Jack Jones sings it so well...had a huge crush on Doc (Bernie Kopell)....spent many Saturday nights watching Love Boat ~ 💜
Music for the Love Boat was composed by Charles Fox who is the subject of a great new documentary called "Killing Me Softly With His Songs"-- named after Fox & Norman gimbel's 1973 Grammy winning hit. In addition to the Love Boat (Lyrics by Paul Williams), Fox also wrote the music for Love American Style (lyric by Arnold Margolin) as well as the themes for "Happy Days", "Laverne & Shirley", "Wonder Woman" & "Angie" (with lyrics by Gimbel).
Well, believe or not in Spain it was rated PG - 14. For senior Spaniards reading, the famous "1 diamond" top right in the screen. 2 diamonds meant 18 or older, so children went irretrievably to bed. Anyhow, my 12yo me considered most unfair to miss such a cool show due to such a strict rating. Eventually we could follow the different seasons, when things chilled a bit out. At this side of the Atlantic the series became unforgetably endearing in our memories.
These television series stands for me for a time which won't come back again. A time when people respected eachother, of welfare and no environmental problems. Whish I could go back. Who comes with me?
My wife and I are celebrating our 40th in two days aboard the Regal Princess. That ship was christened by the cast of the Love Boat and Captain Stubing himself. Bon Voyage!
I was nine years old when this show debuted back in 1977. The theme song is one of the best things about it. It just makes me feel good whenever I hear it. TV shows were so much better back then! Much better than the garbage that"s on TV these days. Oh, to be a little girl again!
THIS IS A FABULOUS SONG ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES! JACK JONES HAD SUCH A GIFTED VOICE AND THE WORDS HAVE SUCH POWERFUL MEANING,,,, LOVE THIS SONG,,,
Makes me think about Saturday nights when I was young fantasy island followed at 10 pm eastern ,didn't have cable so there wasn't a lot to watch in those days,though cable was around in the late 70's,not sure when Charlotte nc got cable,maybe 1980?
And its a 70s theme lol 2nd best theme song is 3s Company Another 70s tv show Followed by YET another 70s tv show The Jeffersons, The70s had a LOT of great tv theme songs
Ahhhh, the blissful memories of the late 70's watching this and then Fantasy Island on Saturday nights. Damn life was so simple and innocent back then.
You know this was never my show but when i see it i feel like im back in those days and like im on vacation and it feels so good...and i see so many actors cameos on there and im like i miss all these people
QUE BARBARO!! QUE VOZ!!! SUAVE PERO POTENTE, ACARICIADORA... Y QUE ESTILO!!! HACE LO QUE QUIERE.... EMOCIONA EL ESCUCHARLO. NO LO CONOCIA PERO ESTOY OYENDO MAS DE SUS CANCIONES. Y ADEMAS GUAPISIMO EL SEÑOR. GRACIAS......
I sure miss these kinds of shows. Simple and enjoyable. Too bad it is being dismantled and sold for scrap and parts. Rest In Pieces my beautiful Pacific Princess.
![Jack Jones- Theme from "The Love Boat" 1980 [Reelin' In The Years Archive]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/KiTOqpVgL8s/mqdefault.jpg)
the best opening theme for any show... and the best Jack Jones there is
The Love Boat 9 PM on Saturday night followed by Fantasy Island at 10 PM.
With Ernie Anderson announcing them both! THE LOOOOOOOVE BOAT!!!
And I'm the unknown stunt man That makes Eastwood look so fine
The best!!!
Where's my TV Guide?
Oh yea, you couldn’t have pulled me away from that TV with a bulldozer. Lol
The good ol days when TV was made to make you feel good! I was born in 1973 and The Love Boat was a huge part of my childhood and good memories.
You can tell its 1976 By Julies collar And all there smiles, Man i miss the 70s The Love Boat one of the best 70s tv shows of all
I dont remenber this serie
@@andrematos3937 try the Spanish version, fantasy island. The plane boss, di plane. Now does that wet your whistle Andre.
Totally uplifting and happy!! Made a person feel good. Miss that show. Happy endings always the best!!😄
Me too. 👏 👏🛳
I miss these happy times in my life. So excited to sit down with my family to watch The Love Boat...and of course sing the song too. Just hearing that music made me teary-eyed. I want to go back!
I have the love boat on NOW, 10-1-21.. THEY REPLACED THE SONG! No Jack Jones!
Not sure, think its Dionne Warwick.
No offense, BUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!
I think we all miss those times in America
I wish we COULD go back. Its depressing how life is now in this country.
Me too.
Me too, I was born in 63. Definitely great TV back then. 🫶👍
Good music. I hate to say it, but this generation don't know what they are missing.
This gives me a warm feeling inside...being a kid watching reruns on a Summer morning...not a care in the world.
I wish everyone could have been a child in the 80's it was a great time.
I was a young(ish) adult. It was still a great time.
I loved this show as a kid! Just out of no where today I started singing to myself this theme song and remembered most of the words lol. The 80's was the best time to be a kid!!
bin 61...but it still brings tears in my eyes when I hear it....don't know why though...
No the 70s were just as good And the Love Boat was on tv before the 80s were in diapers lol , All in fun ,, BUT TRUE

I agree

Just realizing how good of a composition this song is. And well orchestrated.
Capitol ABC use the best orchestras
I looked it up precisely for that.
This gets me emotional! Being a little kid watching this on Saturday nights! Ohhh, I love that show and still do! Bring back lots of memories! The theme song is awesome!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Don't this just make you want to slip away back to a time when life and TV had substance??
One of the best tv theme songs, ever!!!
Reminders of better days, less anger and hate back then.
So true
You stated it all. More than anything, there was just a lot less hate back then. Nowadays, we are drowning in hatred everywhere we turn or look.
Well then I see you have not been around then. There was plenty of hate around.
@@mabaker you are wrong. The UK was much better then than now. I know.
A happy illusion
This show could never be replicated... it's as iconic as M.A.S.H , West Wing , I Love Lucy , Streets of San Francisco ....
Let's all remember who sings this wonderful tune, the great JACK JONES!!!
I love this song I worked on the original love boat Pacific Princess and Sun Princess in the 80s many times the tv crew filmed on board during winter months
Great years
gregory austin was just on a princess cruise. They still use these theme for their safety demos and play it while folks are loading.
Lucky 🍀 you!!😃👍
gregory austin wow bro now that’s awesome!!!

That's wonderful. A beautiful theme & a great series. Every time I hear this theme I think of Hong Kong. Those were great times.

I glad there are fans who born from 1970s as kid.That is great childhood you have as your holiday paradise with having calm your mind.😊
Your old like me!
76, And yes this is old good song
I was born 7-7-1977. T.V. shows like this and others like them keep me a happy grandma. ☺
michelle boultinghouse you was born all 7. The number of perfection. God rested on the 7 day . After HE created the universe
I love!!!! the " Love Boat" theme song. I'm a fan of love boat tv show. I never get tired of watching this show.
Oh my word!!! After so many years! I miss my youth so much now,
Amazing theme - takes me right back to childhood.
Just love it. I wish it would be released on a Love Boat TV CD soundtrack
Eternamente enamorado de esta canción. Es la introducción más hermosa que escuché en mis 55 años que me transportan a esos años 70 con mis padres, mis amigos y mis sueños de niño.
I was born in 1974 and I do remember watching this show with my family, it seems so long ago! Great theme song!
One of the greatest tv theme songs of all time!
This song's energy endures! Wonderfully performed, engineered, packaged, produced, and distributed. Excellent composing and arranging! Those HORNS!!!
This is the absolute best recording I've heard, and certainly the best one on RUclips. Everything is crystal clear, crisp, and you can actually hear all of the individual parts...from the bass to the cowbell. Thank you for sharing!
If theres a COW BELL its more than likely 70s lol

This is from the 70s…
You make it seem like it’s from the 20s
@@tamara_michelleWell, all of the other recordings on RUclips were from 10-17 years ago, so the recording equipment was a bit shoddy back tuen
For a TV show it's hard to believe we have this many good songs come off of TV, but this is one of the best
The Love Boat brings back happy memories
Incredible era for TV shows... reading the comments I can identify with just about every show listed. Thanks 😊☺️
I was eight when I started watching this show. Now I am forty-two and still love the show. Song brings back so many memories.
Same for me too ☺️❤️
Love Boat was one of my favorite television shows. I wanted to grow up and be Julie, the cruise director. And my name happens to be Julie. :)
This is the best arrangement of this I've ever heard
I grew up with the love boat, never missed a show.
I was 10 years old in Memphis and in love with Julie.
Great orchestration!!!
I didn't know Jack Jones then, but in 2023 I'm diving into his catalogue.😊 Rest in peace Suzanne Sommers , Three's Company is amother favorite.
I only saw some episodes of love boat long ago, but this. It stirrs up a beautiful feeling inside.
Best TV show theme song
The Love Boat, a match made in heaven 😍
"Love, like sweetest rewards..." - this theme song is perfection.
FROM 1976 The 70s Baby
This was a great show , and that's a great theme , by a great singer Mr. Jack Jones . Every week you went on a cruise what's not to like . The audio is outstanding
I've been humming the melody all day. and that since 1984!😉
I miss the good old time that our life was simpler.
Me too!
The same thought here....
Me tooo.
If only we could turn the clock back 😨
I was thinking the same, man!!
Those times with, A-Team, Mcgyver, Knight Rider, Miami Vice ....
I hear this song playing in my right ear,I have the gift of clairaudience,and my spirit guide I think is telling me to come hear and look at comments, not sure whom I'm suppose to contact! I'll keep trying. I keep hearing the instrumental of this song,and I don't know why! I'm not on drugs or alcohol,it's coming through loud and clear. High strangeness! Peace Love and hugs Gerri
It was easy to Love this show. Going on a cruise every week.
Que belas memórias.....grande tema e grande série..
Ah, S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y nights!
Sadly today Captain Stubing past away. He might not have been a real captain but he got many of us into cruising anyway......RIP Captain.
Yes! It was wholesome , warm feeling!! Music.
My unforgettable memories working in the llove boat ship
One of my all time favorite theme songs for a TV show...Jack Jones sings it so well...had a huge crush on Doc (Bernie Kopell)....spent many Saturday nights watching Love Boat ~ 💜
Inoubliable indémodable et le rêve cette série et ce thème
Hey, the captain looked so old years ago and now he's so cute! lol

I really saw the pacific princess in the nearby Acapulco bay, beautiful. It's been years, not gonna away it will live in my heart!!
Different Times! When You And Your Family Could Enjoy TV Shows Together. They Say That History Repeats Itself, I Sure Hope So.

the 70s 80s sitcoms had the best themes songs
But its a 70s theme that when into the 80s
These television series stands for me for a time which won't come back again. A time when people respected eachother, of welfare and no environmental problems. Whish I could go back. Who comes with me?
