    If your talking about the theme song, it's Faith of The Hearth by Russell Watson

    Nope, I didn't write the Star Trek theme for "Enterprise". At risk of pissing folks off, I think the theme for "Enterprise" sucks big time. Other than the song being totally lame, I think the show is good thus far.

    I think the Startrek theme songs (generally) are wery good. They are wery appropriate to Startrek series... noble, peaceful and proud. I like the DS9´s theme song most.

    Oh, you wanna know who sings Wherever You Will Go? It's in the album Camino Palmero. Wherever You Will Go is not actually the Enterprise opening theme song, it's Faith Of The Heart by Russel Watson.

    Coffee I agree farscape and enterprise have awesome theme songs. A LOT better than the tradtinal contemporary music shows usually have.

    I read all the posts and still don't see who sings the song calling?

    oh yea...

    1.) Farscape >>>> Best theme songs
    2.) Enterprise
    ...

    and the rest are lame I think..

    DS9

    There's no theme song that can match DS9's for pure grandeur.

    The Calling - Wherever You Will Go

    So lately, been wondering
    Who will be there to take my place
    When I'm gone you'll need love
    To light the shadows on your face
    If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
    Then between the sand and stone
    Could you make it on your own

    If I could, then I would
    I'll go wherever you will go
    Way up high or down low
    I'll go wherever you will go

    And maybe, I'll find out
    A way to make it back someday
    To watch you, to guide you
    Through the darkest of your days
    If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
    Then I hope there's someone out there
    Who can bring me back to you

    If I could, then I would
    I'll go wherever you will go
    Way up high or down low
    I'll go wherever you will go

    Run away with my heart
    Run away with my hope
    Run away with my love

    I know now, just quite how
    My life and love might still go on
    In your heart, in your mind
    I'll stay with you for all of time

    If I could, then I would
    I'll go wherever you will go
    Way up high or down low
    I'll go wherever you will go

    If I could turn back time
    I'll go wherever you will go
    If I could make you mine
    I'll go wherever you will go
    I'll go wherever you will go

    Russel Watson renamed the theme

    Russel Watson renamed the theme to Enterprise.

    It is now called " Wherever My Heart will Take Me "

    Does anyone know who sang it originally?

    I don't think it's Rod Stewart. I went to a site that showed all
    of his CD's and I could not find " Faith of the Heart " listed
    anywhere as a song title.

    Please e-mail me directly at this e-mail address if you know.

    photoguitarist2@juno.com

    Thank You

    Russel Watson renamed the theme

    Also, although the song " Where My Heart will Take Me " is available in the UK at this time, it will not be available until February of 2002 in America.
    "An extended version of the Enterprise theme "Faith of the Heart" is available on Russel Watson's new album "Encore". The song is renamed "Where the Heart Will Take Me" for the album. The album is currently out in the United Kingdom and will be making its North American debut in February 2002. There is also an intention to record a video of "Where the Heart Will Take Me" and release it as a single."

    Absolutly horrid song

    I have to say, when I first heard the Enterprise theme song I almost fell over laughing. It's the most pathetic Star Trek theme I've heard yet. What can I say? I hate it. They should have stuck with something like Voyager and DS9's openers.

    Enterprise Theme

    In order to continue to grow and connect with people and the world, I like to keep an open mind about issues, even though I certainly have my own opinion on things.

    In keeping with this, I can understand how some people aren't happy with the theme chosen for the newest Star Trek saga, Enterprise and that is certainly their prerogative.

    However, my personal opinion is that, even though the song itself isn't new, it gives a fresh sound to the show.

    It also reflects Captain Archer's yearning to become a space pioneer and his achievement of that dream.

    Even more importantly, it is relevant to this day and age when many of us covet that same dream of reaching beyond our world to expand our connection with the cosmos.

    The words of the song can be applied to something small or big, depending on who you are, what your dream is, and what you seek to achieve.

    Let's have a little tolerance, folks. It's a great song by a talented, versatile artist (who I found out is a tenor and records classical music as well!).

    Bottom line is, we have yet another Star Trek series and Gene Roddenberry's dream lives on. So let's not be petty and squabble about the theme song. Instead, let's keep ourselves united in the true spirit of Trek.

    I Agree with MaryCandie!! This is how I feel about the song all along. The words fit the premise of this show and what it stands for.

    True, they did choose a very fitting song to the show. But it doesn't change the fact that they went all out and completely redid the intro from the classic Star Trek theme we have all come to recognize and enjoy to just another song you hear on the radio sometimes. I thought it really took away from the show, but hey, I'm just one person
