Few pieces of music set the tone quite like Batman themes. But which of The Dark Knight’s films and TV shows have the best theme songs?

The Batman movies are capable of making you feel a lot of things, including but not limited to awe and amazement. It’s all in The Dark Knight, his legacy, and the way that he is portrayed on-screen; you just can’t help but to feel pulled into the hero’s world and everything that takes place in Gotham City.

One of the most awe-inspiring elements of the Caped Crusader’s stories is the music that plays in them. Yes, over the course of the past century, the character has had plenty of incredible theme songs that really just set the mood for the stories audiences are about to see.

Heck, he’s had two definitively iconic theme songs that shaped him for two different generations. Both are incredibly different, and yet both are equally as legendary.

The list of composers who have showcased their talents to bring the sounds of Batman to life is also legendary. With that, and the recent Batman Day celebrations, let’s take a look back at the iconic DC hero’s awesome theme songs and rank them.
