The song is actually enjoyable, it was just one of many utterly terrible decisions to use it as the theme to a Star Trek series, for the show.

I know this is not a popular opinion around here, but I actually think going with a song was a pretty good idea. But I don't happen to like this song so much. The song was fine, fitting even- but on the whole a very middle-of-the-road choice. But I think the songit became problematic in season 3 & 4- as the teasers became more dramatic and Archer became a darker character the wailing guitars were inappropriate and even downright comical for some episodes.

Almost everyone who I've talked to who watched the show (and is not really into film scores at all) agree that it was an odd, inappropriate choice (many even loathe it, even if they like that kind of music). I, for one, think when you're doing Star Trek, it needs to be epic/adventurous. Otherwise, it dates the show and just makes it seem like they're pandering to the American Idol masses, which is always a bad idea any way you cut it. The first time I saw it, I was like..."is that the Captain singing? Is this a musical?" Heh

I, for one, think when you're doing Star Trek, it needs to be epic/adventurous. Otherwise, it dates the show and just makes it seem like they're pandering to the American Idol masses, which is always a bad idea any way you cut it. They had done four series with orchestral main titles, and the shows were playing to increasingly diminishing returns. They wanted to do something different to try something unexpected for a franchise that was seeming increasingly formulaic. You can disagree with the choice (as obviously you do), but it's a not-unreasonable approach to take. The goal, too, was to attract non-fans who felt that "Star Trek" was for other people but not for them. Paramount was failing to make new Trekkies, and old ones were leaving. So they tried to turn that around, and hoped a more contemporary title sequence would be a part of that. As it happened, they were not successful in that ambition. And so the people who watched the show were existing fans who tended to prefer tradition over reinvention. So yes, they found the choice odd, or loathed it. But they watched the show anyway. As for dating the show, shows date regardless. The original feels a bit like kabuki theater now – you certainly wouldn't confuse it for a 2016 series, regardless of the music (which also hardly sounds contemporary). The synths in TNG clearly place it in the 80's (just as the design, the hair, the PADDs that are clearly inferior to an iPad, and the references to computer printouts do). It's inevitable. But it does make sense that the series that was supposed to take place closest to our current time has more pop-oriented theme.

I can certainly agree with the notion that it made sense at the time to the powers that be that the show deviate from orchestral main titles and try something with more of a contemporary sound, but it still doesn't mean it was a smart choice. Most Star Trek main titles feel anything BUT dated. Goldsmith's main title for TNG, the main title for Deep Space Nine, and the main title for Voyager all easily sound as if they could have been composed yesterday. They are not dated at all. And my opinion regarding the shows becoming increasingly formulaic is that there is a better way to fix this than to plunk down a (mediocre) pop song for the main theme. A good place to start would be with the writing. Perhaps an unexpectedly refreshing plot or character development would have served Enterprise better.

Exactly and this will make or break star trek beyond.
