To start out, here is a great cover of the Scrubs theme song. The original is called "Superman" by alt-rockers Lazlo Bane (It's a whole band, not a person. That kinda threw me off at first). It has a strangely serene banjo and theramin part (I think. That's what it sounds like. I don't know. I need to find that out) that keeps the song from doing anything but trudging along, but that's alright because it's kind of what the song is about in the first place. The song was used as the theme for the often hilarious show for the 8 season run.
Now, a new version of the song by WAZ is played for the spin-off Scrubs: Med-School. The show is not as funny as the original, but it still has the quirky attraction like the original. The new song has a lighter pop to it. It sounds younger and less experienced than the original, following suit with the show itself. Both songs manage to fulfill their purposes, and are catchy enough to draw anyone into the show. Good pick Comedy Central/ABC.
