They were different, but they were all still instrumental. When most people think of Star Trek music, they think of horn and violin music. Enterprise had none of that and was heavily lyrical.
Comment on It's so bubbly, cloying...and happy.
Zorque@kbin.social 10 months agoHonestly, the TOS and TNG theme songs were different from the DS9 and Voyager themes. The former being more powerful, driving themes. The latter being more somber, contemplative themes.
It makes sense to change it up every once in a while. And honestly the more grounded, hopeful theme of Enterprise felt right for the theme of the show, setting up the eventual foundation of the United Federation of Planets at the end (spoilers, sorry).

It’s about time they worked some bongos back into a theme.

Fuck yes. Star Trek needs its own Cantina song!

TOS and TNG also had the voice over stating the Starfleet modus operandi.
Sometimes things are just different.

Voiceover =/= lyrics.

The horn work in the DS9 theme is awesome. Just tossing that out there.

True. But I do wish they would have had Avery Brooks talk over the music, to honor tradition.
