The iconic opening sequence that ran from the 1975 until 1993 had two themes (the first of which lasted just a year), as shown below:

Here's a 1963 opening (in poor video quality), with a very beautiful theme: To get things started, here is a 1963 (partial) promo for the 'new' soap: However, nobody was better at doing this-or was more copied than-GH was back in its 80's heyday.)
