A Well Known Connection

Pappy, you saved me. I remember Tour of Duty, but I almost made a fool of myself and posted Paint it Black was used on a different show. That show used this as a theme song:

Easy to confuse the 2 shows. Tour of Duty and China Beach aired about the same time and both were about Viet Nam. Both good shows.

Sorry - thought the question was the Lyric itself. I did not mean to drive the thread into the weeds......

There is no mistaking (in my mind) that it's the theme for the show.

Thanks Pappy, I guess that was back when I wasn't watching a lot of tv.
I only recently (within the last six months) heard, the Greatest American hero song, "On a Wing and a Prayer" as George's answering machine, (Seinfeld, seen all of maybe five episodes) and that was due to a comedy radio show.
So I am not the normal viewer.

There are others, that everybody has as individuals, (a song and a girl for example) but those would be impossible to guess. (and that was what I thought your Stones one was)

Okay on the lighter side - Yes I am an idiot, but loved this show!!
