I mean, if there were an unlimited budget for the series.
My picks, in no particular order
The Who "I Can See For Miles"
The Steve Miller Band "Fly Like an Eagle"
The Ramones "Blitzkrieg Bop"
The B-52's "Is That You Mo-Dean?"
Brownsville Station "Smokin' in the Boy's Room"
Rush "Tom Sawyer"
The Kinks "A Well Respected Man"
That's all I can think of offhand.

Tom Petty, "Learning to Fly." I mean, it's perfect:
I'm learning to fly
But I ain't got wings.
Coming down is the hardest thing.

So if the series were coming out now or if we could change some of the original songs into something else retroactively?
I do like the Tom Petty suggestion either way though.

Huh, I was just thinking of the new series or movie or whatever, but going back and doing songs for the original works too. And on that note: Operation: Spoilsport "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath |

Captain Marbles, you're right! I never paid enough attention to that song to know what the lyrics were. Kinda serious for this show, but really the right... scenario.

Another perfect tune for the new "Greatest American Hero" soundtrack - Elvis Costello's "What's So Funny 'bout Peace, Love and Understanding?"

I nominate the song "Hero" by Madison Rising, a patriotic rock band made up of former military. To me, this sounds perfect for a first-act flying practice/crashing montage with a reprise in the final act for the heroic first-flight sequence. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-3D8ZlP3mo |

Another Steve Miller Band classic that fits "TGAH" almost too perfectly - "Space Cowboy"!
