I was looking at some reviews on Amazon, and came across a reviewer that claims that "My Life" was not the original theme song for "Bosom Buddies". This person claims that "My Life" was either added in the middle of season one, or not till the second season.

I'm already pretty convinced this info is false. If you watch the opening to the pilot, you can see that the "My Life" song fit with the action of those pictures a lot better than "Shake Me Loose" does. Also, in the early '90s, I saw a version of the pilot on a local station, and the closing credits actually featured "My Life" as well; which, upon watching these same credits on DVD, you can clearly tell that the instrumental "Shake Me Loose" is inserted; they actually used the music from the second season's closing credits by mistake(I assume).

the "Shake Me Loose" theme was only used as the main theme in syndication, and an instrumental version of it was used as the closing theme in first run and most syndication runs

"My Life" was DEFINATELY the only opening theme used in the original series' run

I have always remembered it being My Life too.
