8 Iconic Cartoon Theme Songs From Our Childhood

After a long week, we thought we’d end it on a good note with a dose of nostalgia. Who remembers these 8 iconic cartoon theme songs that shaped our childhood in Lebanon?

1. Grendizer

I think most of us were more attached to the song than the actual show, but it’s a classic that any and everyone knows by heart.

2. Pokémon

Pokémon is still one of the most beloved shows to this day, but nothing beats the first gen Pokémon that started airing in 1997 after the game became a huge hit.

3. Hamtaro

Does anyone else still know the words by heart? One of the cutest shows that was both hilarious and exciting (and it had all of us wanting pet hamsters).

4. Captain Majid

Everyone who watched Captain Majid thought of pursuing a career in football at least once before realizing it takes skill and athleticism. The exciting show had us cheering more for Majid’s team than any team in the World Cup.

5. Arabian Nights: Adventures of Sindibad

While there are many modern adaptations of Sindibad, nothing will beat the original. Both educational and suspenseful, we think we can watch this show right now and still find it intriguing.

6. Zeina w Nahoul

Zeina w Nahoul is one of the more wholesome shows on the list that most of us know and love. No matter how old you get, you’ll still find yourself singing along to this catchy tune.

7. Zorro

The adventures of Zorro had all of us wanting to wield a sword, fight bad guys, and ride off into the sunset. And the more modern adaptations of this amazing show are equally enjoyable!

8. Detective Conan

Your love for true crime and detective dramas started here. Detective Conan may have put Sherlock Holmes to shame (according to our childhood selves).
