Top 20 Power Rangers Theme Songs

Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we’re counting down our picks for the Top 20 Power Rangers Theme Songs. For this list, we’ll be looking at the catchiest tunes that played over the opening credits of this long running franchise. Did we miss any of your morphenomenal favorites? Let us know in the comments below!

#20: “Power Rangers Beast Morphers” (2019-20)

At just thirty seconds long, this opening credit roll ranks among the shortest in “Ranger” history. But as they say, it’s always best to leave the audience wanting more. “Beast Morphers” does that and then some. From its opening beat drop to its electric fade-out, the song’s techno-inspired rhythm immediately sets it apart from the pack. That’s impressive when you consider that the franchise has been delivering amazing songs for over twenty five years and counting. It definitely deserves some serious props for trying something new. Plus, that synthetic chorus just never gets old.

#19: “Power Rangers Megaforce” (2013) & “Power Rangers Super Megaforce” (2014)

It’s only natural that an anniversary season would bring back the series’ most iconic opening song. To keep it from feeling stale, it leans heavy into rock sensibilities. The opening chant alone makes it clear that this remix is no mere copy.“Megaforce’s” credits update the classic tune with new lyrics and some killer instrumentation. Add in some dramatic Ranger callouts, and the theme feels more epic than ever before. Given how great it already was, that’s really saying something. “Megaforce’s” theme song definitely owes a lot to “Mighty Morphin’s” legendary opening. But the result is so worthwhile, that we accept that it builds upon a great foundation.

#18: “Power Rangers Dino Fury” (2021-22)

If an opening theme is supposed to entice you to stick around, then “Dino Fury” completely understood the assignment. In fact, the track’s weighty bass alone is easily worth watching a whole episode for. Let alone the captivating vocals that go with it. All together, “Dino Fury’s” opening track is a prime example of how to update a song the right way. While it still includes the classic “Go, go Power Rangers!” motto, the song quickly shifts into a fresh chorus. It all culminates in just the right blend of nostalgia and newness. So, despite the season’s dinosaur theme, there’s absolutely nothing prehistoric about its music.

#17: “Power Rangers Operation Overdrive” (2007)

On paper, rap and “Power Rangers” shouldn’t fit into the perfect Megazord. But “Operation Overdrive” single handedly proves that theory wrong. The speedy tempo is infectious and matches perfectly with the fast-paced lyrics. While we’re on the subject, the rap is easy to hum along to after just one listen. The great writing makes it easy for the song to get stuck in your head right away. Everything from the chorus to the melody to the bridge is just that good. At the end of the day, this is different from every other song in the morphing grid —and that’s a very good thing.

#16: “Power Rangers R.P.M.” (2009)

After Dr K. describes the dark ranger world we’re heading into, the bombastic R.P.M. song kicks in. While her bleak monologue perfectly sets up the season’s tone, the followup track gives us hope that the rangers will pull through. That’s mainly because it’s such a head banging song. There’s a heavy-metal undercurrent to the composition that completely sells “RPM’s” intense atmosphere. After all, there’s no better way to kickstart each and every episode than with a reminder of just how much is at stake. As a result, “RPM’s” opening is more than a great song, it’s an extension of the season’s deep storytelling.

#15: “Power Rangers Mystic Force” (2006)

The key behind this song’s spellbinding nature lies in its build-up. Instead of bursting onto the scene with a cacophony of noise, it slowly cranks up the soft and enchanting instrumentation. When “Mystic Force’s” opening song finally reaches its chorus, its subdued approach suddenly goes full hip-hop. The results are undeniably impressive. All at once, there’s a soulful tempo, upbeat lyrics, and a central beat that’s just plain irresistible. Separately, the funky tune and the low-key beginning would each make for both excellent earworms. Combined, they make for a starting song that’s impossible to forget.

#14: “Power Rangers Turbo” (1997)

This car-themed season fittingly wastes no time hitting the gas on its tempo. As opposed to building towards its chorus, “Turbo’s” opening is a pulse-pounding thrill ride from start to finish. The beat, the vocals, and even the onscreen visuals lend the track a rapid pace that just can’t be replicated. As a result, “Turbo’s” opening is the kind of song that’s iconic after just one listen. And it somehow only gets better and better the more you hear it. Really, the song’s only issue is that it’s over too fast. As long as they never change the opening, it’s never a bad idea to shift back into turbo.

#13: “Power Rangers Dino Charge” (2015) & “Power Rangers Super Dino Charge” (2016)

Fundamentally, these jurassic installments carry the same legendary beat that every “Ranger” fan knows and loves. But the creators back up the strong foundation with a new verse, fresh vocals, and a unique tribal-sounding instrumentation. It’s a good sign when you can forget the song’s origins and just get lost in the music. Cash Callaway’s enthusiastic singing makes the opening of every episode feel hopeful and epic. On top of that, a magnetic rhythm will have you replaying the song countless times. This optimistic track definitely carved its own place among the all-time great “Ranger” songs.

#12: “Power Rangers Wild Force” (2002)

It’s hard to top a song that starts with an actual lion roar. After that awesome beginning, “Wild Force” pounces onto a chorus that’s rousing in every sense of the word. It’s fun, optimistic, and it always gets you ready to fight some bad guys. As a matter of fact, you could say the same for the entire song. The track never loses its animalistic influences amidst all the rock and roll. Whether you’re listening to the spirited chorus or the spunky guitar solo, the song maintains a certain gruffness that defines “Wild Force’s” homegrown approach. It's safe to say that saving the world has never been so naturally catchy.

#11: “Power Rangers Jungle Fury” (2008)

The word “invigorating” doesn’t feel like it’s enough to describe this opener. We also aren’t satisfied with calling it “exhilarating,” “stirring,” or “uplifting.” No, the only word to accurately describe “Jungle Fury’s” title number is “morphenomenal.” The roaring good track is absolutely packed with style and excitement. It’s got a breathtaking guitar riff, passionate vocals and a fantastic call-and-response chorus. All of those combined attributes make the song ridiculously hard to skip when you open up an episode. As an added bonus, the lyrics lay down the premise in a fun way. This lively song might just inspire you to try and join the team…or at the very least, sing along.

#10: “Power Rangers Ninja Storm” (2003)

What starts as a peaceful introductory backstory for our heroes, takes a sudden turn into a catchy and extreme theme song. For a season focusing on teenage athletic ninjas-in-training, you need a song that blends the swiftness of the ninja with the extreme nature of said Rangers. Veteran composer/singer Jeremy Sweet pulls it off without a hitch with an alternative rock tune, mixed with Japanese flutes. The only way to top off this earworm is with lyrics that perfectly match our misfit heroes – braving the stormy weather ahead as they protect the Earth from Lothor’s forces.

#9: “Power Rangers Ninja Steel” (2017) & “Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel” (2018)

Noam Kaniel –best known for the English Code Lyoko theme- took over as composer for Power Rangers since Samurai, and he makes sure to have at least one tribute to the original Mighty Morphin theme per song. Ninja Steel, however, feels more original out of the later season openers – combining traditional Japanese elements –such as a shamisen- with heavy metal. While it does still have Kaniel’s obligatory “Go, Go” reference, it is handled in a much more creative way here, allowing the song to still feel unique. Mix all that together with triumphant lyrics, and you’ve got the perfect opening for a team of rangers that fear no danger.

#8: “Power Rangers S.P.D.” (2005)

Since the beginning, Ron Wasserman has brought some of the most energetic and catchiest opening tunes in Power Rangers history, and S.P.D. is just one among them. With the Rangers acting as futuristic law enforcers protecting their city from rogue alien criminals, you need a fast-paced rock tune with even faster percussion, growing more intense during battle scenes. To really emphasize that the city and the world are in good hands, the lyrics assure you that you can always depend on Space Patrol Delta to save the day. Sadly, this would be Wasserman’s last new Rangers theme for a long time, as his pitches for Mystic Force were all rejected.

#7: “Power Rangers Zeo” (1996)

How do you symbolize the Rangers’ triumphant rise to power? Why, with a triumphant heavy metal jam, of course. With the end of the Mighty Morphin era, it was time for a change – a new name, a new look, and a new theme song co-composed by then-newcomer Jeremy Sweet. In addition to a beautiful opening chorus and powerful melody, this opening also introduces a whole new set of lyrics, heavily emphasizing that the Rangers are stronger than ever. Little snippets of the Mighty Morphin tune by Ron Wasserman add an extra zing, creating a more grandiose feel for the new status quo.

#6: “Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue” (2000)

When your entire city is under the threat of demons, you could use a symbol of hope that everything will be alright… what better symbol than the Power Rangers? As usual, Jeremy Sweet brings his A-game to the table with his rocking and uplifting melody that bounces every chance it gets. The lyrics are not exactly grade-a material this time around, but like S.P.D., they do present an optimistic message – when the world is falling apart, you can count on Lightspeed Rescue to save the day. A little cheesy, but it’s balanced out with a rocking tune… plus, it’s Power Rangers, cheesiness is kind of their thing.

#5: “Power Rangers Dino Thunder” (2004)

There’s only one way to get fans excited for a new Dinosaur-themed season – with a roar. Being a spiritual successor to the original Mighty Morphin season, Dino Thunder decided to fully embrace its dinosaur heritage with a Triassic rock tune composed by Bruce Lynch, and performed by Steve Larkins. The chorus starts with a rumbling percussion, and then explodes into heavy metal guitar playing. The lyrics add a sense of grandeur to the whole season as well – turning the titanic reptiles into defenders of the right against Mesagog’s terror. As soon as you hear this butt-kicking jam, you’ll know whose victory it is.

#4: “Power Rangers Time Force” (2001)

There’s something about science fiction and heavy metal that just work so well together -ESPECIALLY for Power Rangers. To start with, Jeremy Sweet is once again at the top of his game with the instrumental – mashing heavy rock with electro swooshing, and a generous amount of guitar riffs. The lyrics –written by Lior Rosner- heavily emphasize the season’s theme –considering how often “time” appears in the lyrics- in the form of a ballad, retelling our heroes’ journey from the future to save the world. Couple all that with Jasan Radford’s singing, and this energetic sci-fi jingle will ensure that listeners and viewers are in for a good… time.

#3: “Power Rangers Lost Galaxy” (1999)

With the Zordon era concluded and the series’ continuation assured, it was time for another fresh start for the season – a sci-fi journey across the universe with a new team, and a new out-of-this-world theme song. Jeremy Sweet outdid himself with the instrumental – a metal tune that turns on both the power and the listeners’ energy with its raw, guitar-riffing power. Though not as lyrically gifted as its last three predecessors, the feeling is clear from the song – our multi-colored heroes are in a whole new world, and the journey of a lifetime has only just begun.

#2: “Power Rangers In Space” (1998)

When you hear that countdown, you best be ready for an epic space adventure. When it looked like the series would be coming to an end, Saban pulled out all the stops for the “final” season with an epic space opera – complete with a rocking theme song once again by Ron Wasserman. In addition to its electrifying tune and addictive lyrics, this is also the first opening to go without elements of the original “Go, Go” melody. In the end, this pulse-pounding song combined with a well-written season helped save the franchise, and kept it alive to this very day.

#1: “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” (1993-95)

Taking the number one spot is the earworm that started it all. Though it only has six different words in the lyrics, they speak volumes when combined with Ron Wasserman’s heavy metal music, as he practically cheers the Rangers on. The extended version with additional lyrics perfectly highlights just how powerful our heroes really are. There have been dozens of remixes and covers of the original song –including Noam Kaniel’s cover for Samurai. Still, whether it’s Ron Wasserman, Noam Kaniel, or the movie chorus’ cover, you’re guaranteed to be hooked as soon as you hear those fateful words. – “Go Go Power Rangers!”
