The 1982 Knight Rider will always be the best. I love the show so much, not only because of David Hasselhoff, but mostly Kit he was my favourite character ❤️
I'm sorry, WHO THE HELL DOESN'T LIKE the best theme song ever??? I often listen to it in my car and its been my ringtone for the past 15 years and it never ever gets old.
I was born in 1984... as a little kiddo knight rider was my favourite tv series... today my son is just 2years old and he is already a great fan of knight rider by showing him the episodes on you tube...i gave a knight rider toy car too.... what i mean to say that generation change and in 2020 knight rider is still evergreen and will never get old
Passes down to the new generations they'll love the 1900s too the cars you don't see no more, the music, the styles it's something new to them don't see the new crap today everything is non sense
Damn, I don't remember much of these TV show (I was very young back then), but this music I can't forget. It is true masterpiece, that once I heard, I could not forget. Funny thing, I knew this opening theme very well, but for a long time I did not know title of the TV show for what it was composed (I come from Poland, and I as child I did not know English back then).
As a young child, I used to watch this show, quite to my mother's dismay, but since she would still allow me to do so, I did not care; amongst other things, I should especially enjoy the story, the quality of acting and KITT's witty lines.
What's so strange about this song is that I have heard it on and off for years and years and it's one of those strange songs that I knew subconsciously but could never pinpoint to where it was from until now!
Woohoo! Great theme! I loved being there for the WHOLE show because I wanted to hear the theme, too! The car was so cool. Michael Knight, what a great name for a modern knight. And Kitt? Knight's 8-cylinder horse power faithful steed (with a dry sense of humor and 100% loyalty to Michael). I was only in high school, but this now 57-year old lady liked his knightly ways, brown curly hair, blue eyes, and deep voice. He was a 'man's man' in the show.
This is and still will be one of TV's most legendary theme. I still watch this show today and it is better than alot of new shows. More action, storyline and character progression
I was an 11 year old kid in early 80's when this show was on, - every time the show would start with this theme song, I would start sliding around the living room trying to invent dance moves ! (LOL) 🤣
By the way Knight Rider Fans. Knight Rider is on Starz Classic channel starts at 710pm no commercials! On the 3rd Season now. Set your video recorders! Awesome! Now that I watch it after 30 years I enjoy the episodes even more so nowadays than before.
I was 10 when the promo/teaser for the show aired. It hit hard. Just a mysterious black car with a red eye flying across the desert at sunset. Theme pulsing. The hairs all over my body stood straight up. I froze. Oh, hell, yes! Still fresh.

if you listening to this in 2024 then you and me are the last ones left.
You should be allowed to LEGALLY drive as fast as you want while you're playing this song
In A Lot of Higways in Germany Its allowed to Drive as fast as you want
Just go to Germany lmao
or Brian Tyler's F1 theme
I agree
As someone who has done over 100 track days... No. Normal people do not know how to drive at the limit and beyond the limit.
This beat kicks even in2020
Knight Rider! A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a cure that does not exist.
Damn right it does
you're goshdarn right
Agreed
I've always loved the theme. I have the series on Blu-ray.
"And when Hans Zimmer first heard the Knight Rider theme, he wept, for he knew he could never compare to such greatness''
I mean... the Interstellar docking scene though...
That's wrong, but hilarious.
I'm 45 now this still gets my blood pumping
Hell yeah, 42 here and love it!!!!

And guess what???

My daughter chose this theme for a walkout song in softball. The crowd cheered. It was cool.
anyone can walk out to rap music. it takes a special type of swag to walk out to the Knight Rider theme
Sir, your daughter is a badass.
Was she wearing a lether jacket?
cool kid.
That’s dope
Watched this show as a kid. Never grew out of it. Love the 80s shows
Same😊
David Hasselhof forever!!🙌🏾🙌🏾😂😂😂
Dukes of Hazzard too.
Must be nice I would love to be an adult in the 80's! Can't stand life in my 20s today!!

Anyone wish they could have KITT as a car?
My dad is building it in our garage

YES!!!
you can have KITT I'll take KARR
@@killalhumans3239 How’s it going?
Dear man who wrote this song, YOU are the 1980's Beethoven.... #period
That would be Stu Phillips who also wrote the great Battlestar Galactica music.
He got the main part of the theme from this "Marche Et Cortège De Bacchus" Act III - No. 14
@@k.hunter9287 it definitely hits very Baroque even though the song you referenced is from the romantic era.
@@keendreams88 damn! the man is a god!!!!!!
How do you write a song with no lyrics? I wrote this great song it goes "Dududu dududu"

This song is still the king of 80s music. No one can recreate this sound.
This and Miami Vice hands down
Timbaland used the sample well for a couple tracks
This and Magnum PI

I Like Knight Rider It’s My Favorite Show
Young people would
Why Pontiac never released a Trans-Am "KITT" edition, I'll never know.
Seems like a total missed opportunity, but that's GM's specialty I guess. This would've actually made me want a TA.
Imagine the Havoc that would ensue from a bunch of suouped up cars flying down the freeway with flashing Red Lights...
Only used for special ops .....possibly !?
That was a bad ass car
Michael knight received the only 1 made
Nothing can beat 80's & 90's music 🎶 🎵
Don't forget the 70's and 60's eras they got great taste!
@@FuckSlowShit
Yeaa... my friend everything was better back then.
@@hamza89868no not really, don’t let nostalgia blind you
I want my 80s back!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭
I just bought the same year 82 Trans Am with 24,000 miles! I am in heaven!
You know what you have to do
Congratulations! You now work for The Foundation for Law and Government. You are the new Michael Knight. Cheers.
Neat! Are you going to "trick out" the interior?
Oh my gosh, congratulations
I am keeping it origional. Facebook Jeffery Allen Evans I have pics
Holy crap, this still is amazing after all those years :)
It's 2023 and it's still amazing!
Coolest theme song to a television show EVER!!!!
Brings back old memories 😄
One of the best car themed TV shows ever.
Greatest intro of the 80s and easily in the top 5 for all time.
Airwolf
....... A team
The equalizer
Yes it is
Miami Vice as well.
Not an 80s kid. But my mom showed me this once I became a fan of this show and I always wanted to have a car like this.

I feel the essence of the 80's in this theme and I LOVE IT!!
Loved this show when I was a kid. Just bought the box set from Walmart.

One of the best show theme songs ever!
We don't get vehicle themed tv shows like this one anymore unfortunately. Instead we get boring cop drama shows.
They tried bringing the series back a few years ago, but it only lasted 1-2 seasons.
Criminal minds has left the chat
@@ScornedOne1080 that's because they brought in a crowdrunner, err i mean a riced Mustang
hey man, The Wire was real fuckin good
I know right
my dad showed me this TV show when I was little im nearly an adult and when I watched it I loved it wish TV was still as good a these ones
This music of "Knight Rider" sounds very perfect.
Damn, I don't remember much of these TV show (I was very young back then), but this music I can't forget. It is true masterpiece, that once I heard, I could not forget.

It’s just after midnight, the highway is deserted, you set the cruse to 80 mph in the hammer lane and pipe this to the speakers, excellent!!
One of the greatest themes in history.
I love how I was born in 99 but this is still a classic for me 😂 I grew up watching this just like ol Pop did lol
This is the best theme song ever!
What's so strange about this song is that I have heard it on and off for years and years and it's one of those strange songs that I knew subconsciously but could never pinpoint to where it was from until now!
I think it’s been sampled quite a lot. Or maybe the rhythm and kicks are just very common.
I could listen to this theme 100 time's going in loops.😵
Listening in 2022. I can imagine this sounded unreal back then 🔥
Love this show today yesterday and forever
early-mid 80's synth music was a pure delight to listen to
Love this. So many memories of my mom and us kids watching after dinner.
Pure genius
It's 2022, and this song still slaps 🔥
I still randomly soundtrack my life to this occasionally and the last time I watched a rerun I was probably like 8.
Woohoo! Great theme! I loved being there for the WHOLE show because I wanted to hear the theme, too! The car was so cool. Michael Knight, what a great name for a modern knight. And Kitt?

Best opening theme music for a TV show
Thanks to this theme song I can’t sleep. This song keeps on playing in my head over and over. I love it so much. :)
One of the best theme tunes for a TV series.
The one great soundtrack that never ages. :)
They play this song at my school in between classes.

Knight rider is a good show. It is also a great tv show nowdays...
Same I remember I cleaned my brother's room as a payment to watch the show
I would totally put this on 7 cassette tapes and wear them all out to the point of dysfunctionality.
that theme unlocked my forgoten childhood memories
I woke up with this playing in my head today, I never even saw the show, wtf
There is a dance club, trance-techno version that's really😎...
