"Solid Gold" is a song performed by Dionne Warwick, composed by Michael K. Miller, lyrics by Dean Pitchford.[1] It is the official theme song of the 1980s TV music show Solid Gold.
Warwick also performed "Solid Gold" on The Tonight Show on June 25, 1981.[2]
The lyrics of the opening verse encapsulate the spirit of both the song and the show:
The music has magic,
You know you can catch it;
If you let the songs take control...
The sound starts to glisten,
The more that you listen,
And slowly it turns into gold...
