Best Friend

One of the most catchy TV theme songs ever! The video is a montage of the original version by Harry Nilsson, with covers by The Courtship of Eddie's Father stars Bill Bixby and Brandon Cruz, the last of which is a punk version by Eddie, all grown-up. I actually had no idea til writing this that Brandon Cruz went on to become a punk artist, even replacing Jello Biafra's vocals when the Dead Kennedys reformed in 2001. Catch this interview with Cruz on the youtube.
