When watching MacGruber (yes, I did see it and I kinda enjoyed it) I realized that they used the song "Love is a Wonderful Thing" at the end (when the credits are shown) which is kind of reminiscent of the MG opening tune. I guess that song was picked on purpose. What other songs could be used in a MG mockup clip? The song I am referring to can be heard here:

blink.gif It is? Doesn't sound anything like it to me.


As for music there's a good bit of music called Dervish D by Vangelis which fits the opening video sequence perfectly. It has the exact same 2 second (I think) timing beat that the MacGyver theme has and so matches the scene cuts in the opening video perfectly.

I actually layed it on top of the MacGyver opening credits years ago and it looked really good, but I don't have that video any more. I did, however, use the music when I made the 20 year celebration video (below), so you can hear the music in that.

to me it doesn't sound like Mac's theme song, but the second one that Rocky posted does.

Oh, I meant the tune itself, not the style.
