What We Do In Shadows Theme Song

Okay, let's talk about something important. Very, very important. It's the theme song for What We Do in the Shadows. You know, that catchy little tune that gets stuck in your head for days?

Am I the only one who thinks it's... maybe a little too good? Hear me out!

A Masterpiece of Minutia

The song, "You're Dead" by Norma Tanega, is undeniably brilliant. It's quirky. It's upbeat. And it’s perfectly morbid, like a vampire's sense of humor.

But here's the thing. It's SO good. So incredibly catchy.

The Earworm Effect

Seriously, that "You're dead, you're dead, you're dead, dead, dead" part? Pure genius. Also, pure torture when you’re trying to concentrate on something else.

I find myself humming it while doing laundry. While grocery shopping. While trying to explain complex tax laws to my accountant (okay, maybe not that last one).

It's an earworm of epic proportions. It takes over my brain like Laszlo takes over rooms with his topiary skills.

The Unpopular Opinion

And here's where I might lose some of you. Brace yourselves.

I think... I think it’s almost TOO catchy for the show.

I know, I know! Blasphemy! But think about it.

Distraction or Delight?

The show itself is hilarious, witty, and brilliantly absurd. It’s a comedy masterpiece. A true gift from Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi.

But sometimes, I feel like I'm spending the first few minutes of each episode trying to mentally scrub the theme song from my brain. It's a battle against the catchiness.

Instead of fully diving into the vampire shenanigans, I’m still humming about being dead. Is it distracting?

A Love-Hate Relationship

Don't get me wrong. I adore the song. I truly do.

It's the perfect soundtrack to my imaginary vampire life. Which, let’s be honest, mostly involves sleeping in late and complaining about sunlight.

But maybe, just maybe, a slightly less addictive tune would allow me to appreciate the show's subtle brilliance without my brain staging a musical rebellion.
