Title: Hypothetical but Fun

You have been given the job of compiling a CD containing themes from shows where Bill either was the host or a regular panelist.  However, the record company has limited you to twelve tracks.  Which ones would you choose (or leave off, if that's easier) and why?

Frankly, twelve are hard to think of, since nobody's going to be clamoring for the theme to Meet Your Match.  A "best-of" collection would probably only include eight or nine:

Blockbusters
This Could Be The Start of Something - IGAS
Plink Plank Plunk - IGAS
Pyramid
Child's Play
Sugar Lips - Eye Guess
To Tell The Truth
...and a theme or two from Price

OK, and The Bill Cullen Show.

In no order...

1.  Blockbusters
2.  The Joker's Wild
3.  The Love Experts
4.  Winning Streak
5.  Pass the Buck
6.  I've Got a Secret '76
7.  Blankety Blanks
8.  The Price is Right
9.  I've Got a Secret--Plink Plank Plunk
10.  The $25,000 Pyramid--Tuning Up
11.  To Tell the Truth, the lyrical version from the 70s
12.  Eye Guess

My reasoning for the top 7 is because they're good themes, while the bottom 5 might be the shows in which BC is best known.

I can add only one. Hot Potato. That end theme made me laugh. When the shows were new, I used to squeeze my little brother's cheeks to it.
