I know it's a very, very minor suggestion. But lately I've been doing a lot of browsing at other online worlds and wondering what they're like, though my comp will likely go barmy the moment I go for a second Online World to explore. Recently I've come across an Online RPG called Perfect World, it's a Korean game that seems to be quite popular there. Mostly it's a world based around the myths that they have in Korea, China and Japan and there appears to be a lot of fighting in it and a huge world of imagination. But what caught my interest the most was the two theme songs for it, I heard them on YouTube because my comp refuses to cooperate these days, so downloading isn't likely. The songs are Fly With Me by Shui Mu Nian Hua and Perfect World by Toni Gonzaga. Both the songs are beautiful and I've been wondering why Second Life doesn't have a theme song or two to describe itself.
I know, it's minor. But just a suggestion. Usually I have music on with Winamp, usually a piece of music called Dream of the Shore from an old game from the late 90s and other pieces of music. But maybe SL could do with something that's beautiful and says a lot about SL itself and the potential there is for members where the only true limit - aside from SL's temper tantrums - is the imagination.

no.
The word "Second Life" causes enough grief and problems.
A Theme Song that somehow emphasized that we are entering or 'playing' Second Life is the last thing our (mine specifically) families need.

Hi, Reina, welcome to the Forums!
I hear Lennon's "Imagine" was pretty popular in SL's early days. Thus, all the "Not the Only One" jewelry in ancient freebie packs. .

Well at this time I've got Utada Hikaru's Beautiful World on in RL, she did songs for games like Kingdom Hearts and did other songs, an oddly catchy song with a flowing melody that connects well all the way through the song. Since SL's radio has been having a lot of problems with me lately, like causing me to crash every ten seconds, making my comp crash continiously and other problems, then music through Winamp tends to be my own solution. John Lennon's Imagine is a beautiful song and still a great song years after it was made. I've found some music from a series called DotHack can fit reasonably well, without Morgania making an appearance of course, if she did then that would be nasty, same if Cubia appeared.
Usually I'm writing to whatever music I'm listening to, since I was born with an ability of being able to see images whenever I listen to music, though a lot of modern music tends to be lifeless and lacking any feeling. But pieces of music like Dream of the Shore, Eclipse of Time and several others can be inspirational. Sadly my building skills are weak to say the least, I just make scenarios for role plays in a Star Trek group while something writing small stories for my character, Reina Beaumont, who I created for a story and developing her character more.
The hard part of finding a theme song for SL is finding one that fits correctly and isn't annoying. A lot of the time 'Bring Me To Life' seems to be a perfect SL song when it's going barmy.

I suggest using the jingle of whatever Corporate Entity winds up infesting SL the most.

You know, I have thought about this many times. But I think SL is too serious to put up a theme song. I like some of the suggestions though.
