	Great theme song from one of the greatest sitcoms of all time. However the song evolved over the course of the series. The wording in this quiz only applied to the last few seasons. Before that, the line "You're gonna make it after all," had been, "You might just make it after all." Also, in the first season or two, the first verse was entirely different, reflecting the then-novel premise of a single career woman living in the big city on her own. It went: "How will you make it on your own? This world is awfully big, and girl, this time you're all alone. But it's time you started living. It's time you let someone else do some giving. Love is all around ..." and then the familiar chorus ensued.

	Heck, I even remember the lyrics to Rhoda's spin-off: La-la-la laaa la, La-la-la laaa La-la-la laaa la, La-la-la la La-la-la laaa la, La-la-la laaa La-la-la la la laaaa.

	Every word but 'glance'. Damn.

	The Joan Jett cover/reissue is far better than the Husker Du version.

	Can't get the Animaniacs version out of my head long enough to do this quiz. "Who can take a bubble bath, and suddenly fill it with crocodiles?" "Don't throw your hat up in the air! 'Cause what might come down is a frigidaire!"

	Yes, I was very confused, because I started with the lyrics posted by TimeAndTide above, and none of them showed up.

	I watched the show when it was on, and about two zillion times in reruns, and do you think I paid attention to the flippin' theme song well enough to get all these words? Thanks, though, for the tribute to a great show.

	The lady looking quizzically in the background at the end of the opening credits/theme died a few years ago and an article about her death made the papers here in Minnesota. Turns out she had gone shopping that day in downtown Minneapolis and, as they were filming the intro in front of Nicollet Mall, she just happened to be looking the right direction and simply had no idea what was going on. It was an interesting story behind an obscure piece of TV trivia.

	I only knew the last line from a sickening episode of 7th Heaven, and guessed the rest.

	Really thought that it was "Love is all around, no need to fake it."

	It would be great if the earlier versions of the lyrics could be added as bonus answers. But I love this show, so great idea for a quiz! :)
