Commodore Suzy Posted May 14, 2004 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2004 OK. So, many of us like The Love Boat Theme Song and expect to hear it on a Princess Cruise. Let's do a poll and see how we REALLY feel, and maybe Princess will get a clue! If you really like it, and you want to hear it on your next cruise go to http://www.musicnotes.com/ and buy the sheet music to take along with you! The pianists won't refuse you if you have the music in hand!

cruisingfreak Posted May 14, 2004 #5 Share Posted May 14, 2004 It sure is the best!!! Would love hearing it again, during sailaway. By the way, they did play a steel drum version, on our Coral Princess cruise, in Dec. Minette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commodore Suzy Posted May 14, 2004 Author #6 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Minette, Yes, maybe they are bringing it back a little with the whole Caribbean Princess launch with the Love Boat crew, etc. However, other ships don't seem to be 'with the program' at all. Just hoping the poll shows most of us like it and they should bring it back MORE! Cheers!

OCruisers Posted May 14, 2004 #10 Share Posted May 14, 2004 LOVE IT! Sometimes, when we are on another cruise line and docked across/near a Princess ship .... my DH hopes I won't hear them playing "The Love Boat" because it will make me miss Princess and I do tend to shead a few tears! Happy Sailing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jemingway Posted May 14, 2004 #13 Share Posted May 14, 2004 No love boat theme. Let's have Jimmy Buffett doing, "Why Don't We Get Drunk?" or some hard rock. JV The 4 stages of cruising: planning, anticipation, experience and reflection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseFever Posted May 15, 2004 #15 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Just at sailaway would be a dream come true for me. The song is only one minute and thirty six seconds long and I'm only asking for it to be played one time. I'm telling you, if this doesn't happen pretty soon I am just going to break out in my own rendition of it accompanied by DD on the trumpet and THEN you'll wish they played it over the PA system..believe me!

catdancers Posted May 15, 2004 #17 Share Posted May 15, 2004 We take the song with us and have played it on our balcony during sailaways! If Disney can play When You Wish Upon a Star as they sailaway, Princess should play their theme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseFever Posted May 15, 2004 #21 Share Posted May 15, 2004 One night at Skywalkers, about 3AM, the gang that was left broke into an version using those lyrics except substituting "Sex Cruise" for "Love Boat". Made a whole different song but that was many many buckets of Dos Equis into the night.

isujim Posted May 15, 2004 #22 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Is anyone else surprised that only 53% so far "LOVE" the song?? I thought on the Princess boards especially the number would be alot higher. Granted, when you add those that wouldn't mind hearing it once or ocassionally the number goes to 80+ percent........just surprised the I love it number isn't higher.....now I feel it may be an age thing!

Commodore Suzy Posted May 16, 2004 Author #24 Share Posted May 16, 2004 It might be just a demographic thing.. I grew up watching it every weekend. It was my big thing. I still think adding the top two stats together is what matters and that is a big number!

UVaWiseGuy Posted May 16, 2004 #25 Share Posted May 16, 2004 During sailaway, why not? We grew up watching the show. Jill Whelan, who played the captain's daughter Viki, was from Livermore, CA, the town I grew up in. I never met her, but some of my friends went to grade school with her. We always referred to it as the 'Lust Barge' the stanger until our first cruise! Regal Princess to Alaska. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
