KNIGHT RIDER THEME ORIGIN

Thats very cool. The comments say the Germain song came out not before 1983 I wonder if there is any truth to that matter?

Well, the Harry Thumann song is debatable as to which came out first, but the Mozart piece is from the 19th century. No debate there. Who knew at every commercial break that we were really listening to Classical the whole time!

no, in a video that stu appeared for knightrideronline said, he didn't knew about Cortège de Bacchus, it was a pure coincidence.
