Wehrenberg Theaters theme song
Does anyone remember the Wehrenberg Theaters theme song? The jingle played after the previews, right before the feature? You wouldn’t unless you lived in St. Louis two decades ago. They changed it around 1995. And changed it again to the current one. Many locals believe the classic song is so much better than the fancy digitally mastered new jingles with their 3D motion effects.
Don’t you wish you remembered it? Well, you don’t have to. You can download it right here, at least for the time being. I noticed several people have an affinity for this jingle. For me, it’s very nostalgic. I remember seeing “A Christmas Story” and “Ghostbusters” and hearing the song before those movies from my childhood. It always tightened my stomach a little, the excitement before the movie. Hopefully these files can stay here for a while for people to enjoy, maybe even persuading them to buy a movie ticket at a Wehrenberg theater for a fun night out.

This brings back so many memories of South Twin Drive in Thanks for the post.
OMG! I CAN NOT BELIEVE WHAT I AM HEARING! I LOVE THESE SONGS!
Even though Im only 26, these songs INSTANTLY brought back memories of going to the old Kenrick theater that is now shut down!
I can remember going there and that place being PACKED on weekends! I can also remember standing in line for the nickle day to see any movie you wanted! That was great! 
I downloaded the song on my computer, but does anyone know how to send it to ITunes? Also, does anyone know if the song can be downloaded to your cell phone some way, some how?!?!? I would really love to be able to do that!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS!
Wehrenberg Rocks!

Fantastic! I can’t wait to be back ‘home’ for the holidays! The theme brings back great memories. Thanks!
Just got done with the ringtones, I actually remember getting these off of napster back in the day. Yes, when it was napster.

and I really dislike the newest thing they have going on.
As a kid of the new generation, I only grew up hearing the ’95 version, and Ive been scouring the internet for 2+ years since they stopped playing it, and went back to a more nostalia theme song/jingle. Something about that electric Guitar, and the whispering “Wehrenberg!” just makes me remember those days when I was 12/13, and going to the Jamestown Mall was the “Cool” thing to do.
omg omg!!! thank u sooo much!!!! my class needs this for a play we r putting on, and we couldnt find it at *all*, then u saved us!!!!! thank u thank u!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’ve been looking for this every once in a while for years! I grew up in Chesterfield, MO in the 80s and haven’t forgotten how cool this classic intro was. Thanks again.
as a prelude to time bandits, the dark crystal, bambi, and all the rest, this tune was totally the best part of the film. my brother and sisters and I would always pysche each other out to see who would come in too early on the ba ba ba bas (easily done when your hyped up on the scratched up orange and brown 60s graphics that accompanied this masterpeice)! thanks very much for that. p.s. also grew up in chesterfield in the 80s..gag me with a spoon. !
I’m also with the new generation and I’ve never even heard the one from ’95! I kinda like the new one now with the old movie theaters and the dancing and stuff but the one from 1964 just sounds awsome. I showed it to my dad and he smiled a big smile. It sounds so good. Whenever I go to a theater now I usally only go to a wherenberg one. Ba Ba Ba Ba…
I’m really happy these are still on here…I live in Springfield and we didn’t even get a Wehrenberg until around 95. I remember seeing movies at the age of like 10 and whispering “Wehrenberg!” along with the rest of the movie theatre patrons. It’s become somewhat of a legend in the area now…so I’m thrilled to see someone was able to preserve that theme digitally.
The new 2007 theme is a nice kickback but it’s nowhere near as good as the original 64 version.
