Law & Order: SVU Season 1-15 Intro
I’ve already written about the series (in the sense of "regarding the series"), but the opening theme deserves a listen on its own.
Putting aside the technical side—there's plenty of people here who know their stuff—I simply find it genius, both sonically and visually.
When it comes to these things, no one beats the Merighani: every note, every counterpoint, every syncopation fits perfectly with the editing, composed of deliberately grainy black and white frames, which seem like many pieces of a puzzle chasing each other until they form the final image of the protagonists, who then appear to look through the fourth wall: that is, us watching them.
There are thousands of extraordinary ones, but in my very personal ranking, this is in the top three, alongside "Beautiful" and "Murder She Wrote."
And don’t laugh, because I see you! Haw!
