Tugs - End (COMPLETELY FIXED)
225,841
Published 2014-06-13
Using EVERY SINGLE EPISODE, and ALL THE JAPANESE DUBS, and even THE TV VERSIONS of the 20-minute episodes all lined up in a truly gob-smackingly massive Audacity file, I ended up with THIS. I even managed to snag the final seconds which are normally cut off or faded out. Pretty much the only thing left wrong with it is the static interference that keeps fading in and out, but I mmmmay be able to eventually fix that if I can be bothered to redownload all the English episodes again in higher quality.
Hope you all like this, and - yes - you can use this, otherwise I wouldn't have made it for you lot! ;-)

Until I discovered TUGS some years ago, I never realized how beautiful a show about tugboats could really be. This piece of fine music proves just how grand it was. I don’t know if there is much I can say about this show that hasn’t been made evident millions of times before, so I’ll just say that this show was quite the one-Hit-wonder. I enjoy it still, and despite there being only 13 episodes, this show is and always will be a masterpiece.

Legend has it, this is the music you hear upon death and entry to Heaven...

The music that plays on the last day of school

I think this is one of those credit themes which are just wonderful, but also make you (as a little child) sad that the episode is over, because the melody actually is a slightly bit sad-themed. Nowadays, of course, it makes us fans sad that there were only 13 episodes of the show.

I remember a time when a lot of effort was put into children's TV shows. Such a beautiful 80s vibe that brings nostalgic tears to the eyes.
-
Pure nostalgia. Ha, I remember being scared of the end credits. I've been looking for this show again for years.

“They watched with embarrassment as Burke and Blair towed away the rotten galleon. Later on, Star Tugs found they could laugh about it. But they never forgot the fog that nearly sent them crazy."
-
I wonder if this ending theme could be the ending theme to the 80s?
-
Literally played this the same day I finished my final day of school. Even for me as an Australian teenager, the ending credits of an old UK tv show from the late 80s, it felt so nostalgic and magical.

I can imagine at the end of a thomas special the tugs arrive and this theme plays
-
That all happened because of a few hasty words and bad tempers. Orders may be orders, but they've blinded Bluenose from using simple common sense and from keeping level-headed... So a tiny incident grew into a big disaster, and the old dock was left in ruins. We should have the greatest respect for fire. Just think what might've happened to Ten Cents and his friends just because Bluenose didn't... ~ Captain Star

I could totally cry, you have made my day sir

One of the best shows EVER invented! Great job!
-
I always cry whenever I listen to this end credits. So many happy memories.
-
I just noticed this about the Star Tugs' leitmotif/the ending theme. It seems to go up and down with a rolling cymbal sound typically associated with occen waves, as if a mighty tugboat is braving a fierce storm, powering over the waves to get to the docks on time. Sheer music-writting brilliance, I'd say.
-
Both the intro and outro in this show are majestic, and one of the few themes in a show i won't skip.
-
Sometimes I wish that TUGS had a true US release with the stories staying the exact same and having American voice actors instead of being put together and COMPLETELY rewritten really poorly by Salty's Lighthouse. It really would've gained the show's popularity and we may have gotten a 2nd season. TUGS must be revived! It never had the chance to truly come out of its shell, but yet it had SO much potential!

Mate this is so clear, the memories this program brings me are unreal! Can still see myself sat in my grandmas busting the tape of this out and watching em all! Brings tears to my eyes cos it just reminds me of being back with them, I lost them 17 and 18 years ago, but when I hear little memory jogs like this it makes me shed a tear!
