    This is an off-the-wall question. There is a song on the 1993 NBA Championship video featuring the Chicago Bulls. The songs starts when the Bulls and Suns are about to start their series. It's a mix between an Enya song and an instrumental. But it's NOT Enya. I have no idea what does that song. It's driving me crazy. I literally signed up on the site just for THIS question. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Is this the song?

    YouTube - NBA on NBC full length theme

    NBA on NBC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Roundball Rock is a theme song composed by John Tesh and used for the NBA on NBC from 1991-2002. NBC played the song 12,000 times during their run, and Tesh claims that he made in the six figures from royalities each year it was used. When ABC took over broadcasting rights for the NBA, they chose to compose their own theme music instead. This song was sampled by Nelly for his song "Heart of a Champion" from his album, Sweatsuit. It is currently the theme song to "Let's Play Two! Sports Talk with Joe and Mikey", a popular internet radio show.[1] NBC used the music for commercial bumpers during their coverage of basketball at the 2008 Summer Olympics.[2]

    ####edit: sorry was trying to be helpful was hoping the link had the name of the song you were looking for.

    Yeah me not knowing anything about Basketball I figured I would keep looking it up until I got the right one but since I got more than a NO that's not it I figure why look any further.

    I live in the Chicago area and could call someone tomorrow (Wed.). The Bulls office and John Paxson? MJ? Dennis? Tell me who to call. And I'm a librarian, so could get all the librarians in the greater Chicago area involved in this.

    Man! People on this site are too sensitive and sarcastic. I only asked a question, yet I'm the bad guy. Why? Because I clicked "disagree?" Big deal. The answer was incorrect. Why would I agree with an answer that's wrong? Feel free to report me. This site is useless if people like you are trying to help.

    How will I report back to you? Here or in a PM?

    One of the rules here is to be able disagree if it is a fact thing, but not if it's a opinion. We know you are new, and are glad you are here to give us work to do.

    Thank you. A PM would be the best.

    As for my disagreement, it is a fact. I know the John Tesh song, and that's not the song I'm talking about. That's basically what I said in my disagreement and the other two users were acting like I attacked them.

    I really don't care about the disagreement but it does feel a bit discouraging when you could do a follow up post instead saying No that is not it and even ask if I could possibly try again.
    When people ask for songs it can be really hard looking the right one up and it can take a few tries.
    Like you wouldn't believe how many people post
    The song is an oldie and it goes like this
    La, la, sho bop de boo and that could be any number of oldies

    Also for future reference the disagree button on AMHD is to use more for harmful or misleading types of replies like someone would give on the medical or legal boards here so I don't even know why many of the boards even have the rate answer button.

    I am not mad or anything about the reddie just got discouraged cause I DID say

    Is this the song (at the beginning, during the early part of the intro, before the Bulls' theme song)?

    I didn't hear a song and I think he said it isn't the finals but the championship.

    I think he wants the Lost World version of "The Theme from Jurassic Park."
