Strange, but did the person who song the Diff'rent Strokes theme sounded just like Willis to you? I've always thought it was Willis but then his voice wouldn't sound like that until the 1981 season.

I actually think you can hear Alan Thicke's voice in the background singing. I know there was a post on her a while back with somebody saying that he didn't sing on it -- just helped write it -- but I disagree. I think he did do a background vocal.

I don't think they did ever say who sung the theme.

I don't really think it sounds like Todd Bridges, but if you go onto the Sitcomsonline DS site you can download Todd singing it!
