Of the firm belief that every sentai team/member needs to sing and/or dance at least once. Whether its all together or on their own, its not a proper season if they dont sing or dance.
Bonus points for when the actors cant sing or dance at all.
my goal before the new year is to retag all my power rangers posts so i can sort them by season (mostly) except they are mostly incomprehensible and impossible to predict. as such i am providing a helpful handy guide. some of them are rather simple and will probably change once i get more inspiration/do a rewatch. i do not accept criticism at this time/ever.

Oh that's tough... Cause, see, the only one I DON'T like is Operation Overdrive. I think my favorite is either Ninja Storm, Lightspeed Rescue, or Mighty Morphin'.
Say what you want about the Disney era of Power Rangers, but I'll admit that watching Power Rangers Jungle Fury as a wee elementary-schooler molded my taste in men.
Top 7 Most Wonderful Power Rangers Theme Songs
#7: Wild Force: I’m going to be honest. Figuring out the lower half of this list was absolutely brutal but out of the available options, Wild Force made the cut. It’s the kind of high energy tune that hypes you up to watch giant CGI robot animals fight pollution monsters. The animal sound effects add to the hype as well.
#6: Turbo: While the third series' theme carries parts of its predecessors, Turbo’s theme sounds distinct while being all about the adrenaline and it does a good job at invoking it. It really pumps you up to drive some fast cars and not getting baked into a pizza (though sadly that may happen).
#5: Zeo: Effectively a sequel to the original theme but with the epic dial turned to 11, primarily thanks to the addition of a choir. Makes it sound like something out of a Queen album or…I’m not sure. What other rock bands use choirs? I’m sure there’s plenty of them. Awesome theme regardless.
#4: In Space: The first “final” season of Power Rangers and this song assuredly plays the part. It sells the feeling of the franchise flying higher than ever before despite the cheesy voice over’s best efforts…I kid. He actually adds to the charm.
#3: Dino Charge: Like other PR themes, this song incorporates parts of “Go Go Power Rangers”, but unlike others I could name, it feels like its own ancient reptile bird. You might not think that a deep continuous chant of “Power Rangers” would be badass but you would be wrong. That and the tone and lyrics are quite inspiring. “Don’t you ever stop!” indeed.
#2: Mighty Morphin: The OG. I’m willing to bet that even if you don’t give a hoot about the Power Rangers, you know about this theme song. What you may not know is that there is a full song not just “Go go Power Rangers”. I’m serious. Even so, there’s a reason that this piece is so iconic and it's not just because it was the first…or because of the many remixes…or because-look, this song is fantastic. End of discussion…oh wait, I still have #1 to write.
#1: Space Patrol Delta: It’s catchy, it’s intense, that electric guitar rocks and that percussion hits so gosh darn hard. It even works in a police siren. This theme feels like a 70 mile per hour car chase and I love it. Thank you, Ron Wasserman for this wonderful theme song…and also thank you for most of this list.
Honorable Mention: Ninja Storm: This one was soooo close to making the list. I do think Wild Force is a bit better but that early 2000’s rock sound and those weather puns still make my heart melt. Also, its usage in the show is so much better than “theme song cuts” I found but what you gonna do. Well, I know what I gonna do: give it an honorable mention.
R.I.P. Jason David Frank. I'm not sure if you were “The Greatest Ranger Ever” but I can say that you made many a childhood all the more wonderful and that’s pretty great to me.
