  • On the first anniversary of Shortland Street a special album was created in very limited numbers. This album consisted of two tracks, Track one Shortland Street Theme, Track Two: Shortland Street - The Club Mix.
    CD was later released later on mass and in a plastic sleeve accompanied with the first edition of The Official Shortland Street Magazine. No official cover art was accompanied with this release, and the CD art itself promoted the "Heart" a new product from the Tip Top Ice Cream Company.
    Theme and remix recorded and mixed at STL Recording Studios, Auckland, New Zealand on the 12th and 13th of May 1993.
    Written, produced and engineered by Graham Bollard for STL Productions Limited.
    Sung by Tina Cross
    South Pacific Pictures Limited 1993

      ​@@stevok777777 we are on episodes from 2020 in Ireland. It was on 5.20pm then switched to anytime between 11am-12.30pm. Now it has taken over the two slots that were for Neighbours, 2.20pm and 6pm. It would s not very popular here as on when a lot of people still not home from work or college. I miss that they cut the theme song. I used to watch it until they first cut it from the 5.20pm slot.

    I remember in the mid 1990's if I was off school either because of the holidays or being ill I used to watch this at about three in the afternoon, loved the theme tune a lot, for me it was part of the mysticism of that era, I miss the show and its a shame it was axed from the UK schedules, daytime TV is just not as good now.

    I was convinced that Shortland Street was going to be a sci-fi or ghost mystery when I heard the theme. It took me about 3 days to figure out it was just another soap, but with a great theme tune...

    Back in the early 2000s, Canadians were able to watch Shortland Street on APTN (Aboriginal Peoples Television Network).
    Too bad APTN discontinued it in Canada.
    Shortland Street needs to be aired in Canada.
