Music
The original music was written by composers Guido and Maurizio De Angelis.
Song "Around the World with Willy Fog" ( Spanish: La Vuelta Al Mundo De Willy Fog ):
... Son ochenta días son
ochenta nada más
para dar la vuelta al mundo ...
This song sounded in the initial splash screen (first verse) and in some episodes (second verse). In the USA, Canada , Great Britain and in the English-speaking regions, the song sounded in English.
Song “Whistle Me” ( Spanish: Dar la vuelta al mundo (Sílbame) ):
... Pon la boca así como si fueras a beber
Ve soplando el aire, poco a poco ya la vez ...
This song sounded in some series (first verse) and end credits (second verse). In the English version ( USA , Canada , Great Britain ), the song sounded in English. In Russia, the song was off-screen translated from the original to the television and radio company Moscow. In duplicated versions of LAIKO and SV Double of the State Culture and Radio Company “Culture” only the melody of this song sounds, therefore the song is not translated into Russian.
The songs “Dicks (in the 13th series) and Transfer (in the 5th and 25th episodes)” ( Spanish. Dix y Transfer ), “America, America” ( Spanish. America, America ) - from the 18th to the 21st and 24th series were also sounded.
