Oprah Sings Her Theme Song

Does anyone remember this shit? She took vocal lessons for this horror. What years was she using this?

I still can't find the one in which she tells us it's the only show where she gets to "sing her own theme song". This reminds me of Barbara Walters' old opening for "The View" in which she would tell us: "I always wanted to do a show..." So cringe-worthy.

Her trip Down Under was an embarrassment. She's become like some globetrotting Monty Hall, throwing money at the crowds. And her habit of emerging from behind a door to some "thrilled fan". I bet they have to reshoot it numerous times to get the kind of elation needed for the moment.

What ego?

lol I bet Oprah wishes she could erase this gem from her past. She was very close with Patti Labelle back then (ahem) and Patti probably told her she should sing a theme song. Damn you, Patti!

un on, run on Run on, run on.

I believe I'll run on See what the end will be I believe I'll work on Find out what's waiting for me.

I see 10 thousand stories And glories and dreams I see angels right here on Earth I see laughing and growing and loving And knowing what life is worth.

So I believe I'll run on See what tomorrow will be (run on, run on) 'Cause I like what I see.

There's a new road to walk, a new song to sing A miracle in what just a small change can bring Our hearts are open wide A new light shining inside.

So I think I'll run on See what tomorrow will be (run on, run on) Cause I like what I see Come on and run with me.

Oh oh ooohh Oooh oooh ooh Run on!

We're gonna keep on talkin' Got something to say I know we can make a difference And together we can find a way!

Run on, keep on, move on With all your heart Today's a brand new start! Whoa, yeah-eah!

Oh whoop whoop. Yeay whoop whoop.

Run on run on.

Yes I believe I'll run on. (run on, run on) Come on and run on with me. (run on, run on)

Why do 90% of the pictures show her for the five minutes she was skinny?

This week she said this was her top "what were you thinking?" moment of the Oprah Winfrey Show.

A damn shame. She should have asked Gladys Knight to sing this theme song. Gladys would have livened it up, despite the saccharine lyrics, gospel choir and pop melody that reeks the worst material of Mariah Carey circa '93.

My god, she sees angels right here on earth and good Christ that Patsy Labia just screeches her fucking head off like some stuck hog.

I remember it didn't last long. It came on at the season premiere about ten years ago, and I don't even think it lasted half the season. Oprah was also doing an "after-show" thing that was showing on Oxygen, and there was a segment where she commented on the song. She basically said she wanted to do it, she had a good time doing it, and was aware it wasn't popular. She wasn't really hurt, and at one point actually said, "I know I'm not a good singer, but I really didn't care, I just wanted to give it a try." In other words, no big whoop.

Actually, OP, the question should be, "was she using at the time?"

Those lyrics put me in mind of Della Reese and her skunk 'do.

r15 she also said on her funniest moments show this week that she had them edit the song into smaller cuts until it was almost nonexistent on the credits.

If I hear "Me, Me, Me, it's all about Me" one more time, I am selling my TV.

Ah, but the ten years come and gone so fast theme song was beautiful, by the great Paul Simon.

I love this theme song. I've sang it at least once a month since it debuted.

Dolly Parton said that she couldn't sing worth a lick.
