Opening Theme Song: "I've Just Seen A Face" performed by The BoDeans, originally by the Beatles
Lyrics:
I just seen a face I can't forget
the time or place where we just met
She's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see that we've met
Falling, yes, I'm falling, she keeps calling me back again
Falling, yes, I'm falling, she keeps calling me back again
