hi does anyone know if that song was written especially for cheers,,since hearing the full song i am beganing to think that it probably wasn,t see after listening closely it doesn,t sound like it is realated to cheers,the lyrics seem to be written about something else,but it could just be me,am i dilosiaonal here now or was that song written for something else other than cheers

yes, the theme was. as a matter of fact that was the fourth song they wrote for cheers.. and that one just worked.. they realeased a 45 of it.. and they talk about it on the jay leno special where theyre all drunk.. gary portonoy and the co-writer sing it live in front of the crowd and the whole cheers gang is their *drunk* singing it.. its cute

what do u mean fourth song for Cheers? were there other theme songs tried?

yea, but they were never aired... "W.E.K.Y.K" was the only one that fit..

The Song used on Cheers was actually shortened. The entire song is about 3 or 4 minutes long, and its really weird.

yea i luv it.. "and your husband wants to be a girl.." LOL srry

yeah i knew it was about 3+ minutes long, but i never knew there were other songs considered

do u know what they were?

i memorized it hehe:

Making your way in the world today takes everything you got;
Taking a break from all your worries sure would help alot;
Wouldnt you like to get away?;

All of the nights when you got no lights;
Check is in the mail;
And your little angel hung the cat up by its tail;

Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name;
And their always glad you came;
You wanna be where you can see our troubles are all the same;
You wanna be where everybody knows your name;

Roll out of bed mr.koffees dead;
The mornings looking bright;
Shrink ran off to europe and didnt even write;
And your husband wants to be a girl...

Be glad theres 1 place in the world where everybody knows your name;
And their always glad you came;
You wanna go where ppl know our troubles are all the same;
You wanna go where everybody knows your name.

just to throw in a line, you forgot the part at the end of the 1st verse

"And your 3rd Fiance didnt show"
