Was never a soap watcher, but that intro takes me back to those endless summer days in the early 1980's playing outside with friends when I was so young and life was so carefree!

Man, me too.. I only remember the theme, back in the days you had to get up to change the channel, but didn't and so instead found other real life activity, as opposed to now where we just flick facebook around to get new content.. but those were carefree days.... god .. you know the drill.. if I knew then what I know now, I'd not be who I was then, and not be who I am now. Might be better... it surely cannot be worse. I mean... I am fascinated by one of the arquette sisters, but I just cannot work out which one.. they're both wonderful and.. horn inducing. Gah, I have said too much.. erase this from your eyes. I just cannot.. Medium is on. oO

Honestly, who could ever forget this unforgettable intro phrase for this soap opera-"Like sands through the hour glass, so are the days of our lives." I was never a soap watcher either, but I do remember this while growing up as a kid in the 1970s.

Grandma watched this every day! Used to watch with her when I caught a bug! Rest in peace Grandma! Trying to make you proud with every day of my life!

Days of Our Lives was my aunt's favorite soap since the 70's. My aunt passed away last February. I've been afraid of hearing the intro and watching the hourglass rotate from side to side, I've been afraid of the emotion that would come with it. I miss this time. A time when my brothers and I would spend our summer days over at my aunt's flat in Toronto. Back then she was a receptionist during the day, so she would leave my brother and I in charge of recording Days of Our Lives everyday on her VHS tapes. She could be tired as hell, sick as hell, looking like hell- as long as her armchair was available and placed perfectly in view of the television screen- all was well. Days of Our Lives was first aired on NBC in 1965, and managed to keep it's notorious 1 PM slot for almost half a century. From the initial premiere of this daytime soap, all the way up until the day she passed a few months ago, my aunt has not a missed a single episode. My aunt was an angel. My aunt was a fairy. My aunt was the most precious, sweet, genuine lady I've ever known. She had a humor like no other, she had such a benevolent soul, and she raised my mother when they were growing up. She was my mom's best friend. She was my mom's confidant. She was my mom's safe haven. She was my mom's laughter. She was my mom's light. She was my mom's everything. The funeral was in late February. It was the first funeral I'd been to since I was five. It was the first time reality sunk in. The sand in the hourglass was starting to run out, and I came to a dreary realization. The sand through the hourglass is all our days, all of our liveliness, all of our obstacles and forgotten responsibilities- no matter what the sand will always be running out. Everything has a hidden hourglass on it, no matter what everything must gradually deteriorate. It all must come to an end. I miss my aunty. I never saw the sand go out of her hourglass. I never saw her laying in her death bed. A blessing in the dark. For when rainclouds and gloom creep it's way into my existence, I can shut my eyes and imagine my angelic aunt upright laying out on the beach, her Soaps fully taped and her glass filled with rum, screaming obscenities into the distance. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives. I never thought those 11 words could contain so many memories. I never thought my aunt would become a memory. She's the most angelic memory in all the lands, can't think of anything more beautiful.

My mom used to watch this when I was little. Loved watching this with her. I still watch it from time to time.

This is a childhood anxiety inducing show for me. I’m super auditory sensitive and I just remember feeling overwhelmed by it lol 😭

My Grandma always watched or wanted to watch this. It never gets old

Now 30 year later, i understand how true that opening statement is. Like sands thru the hour glass, so r the days of our lives

God that theme and jingle is burned in to the brain. It was inescapable in the 80s. Everywhere I went if I was at someone's house at the right, or wrong time I should say. Neighbors, friends house, relative, if the show was airing, chances where high that someone in the house was watching and I'd hear that intro. I think that was the main reason I wanted to stay outside.

It's crazy to see people finding it nostalgic talking about their moms watching it in the 80's as a younging born in '02 I too can find nostalgia in this as it was a constant when visiting my grandma or staying home sick! Much love and appreciation for those who came before! I hope all of your kids and grandkids think of you when they grow up and hear the themes to your favorite things!

I loved this show so much growing up in Ghana. I was glued to the tv 📺 at the time. Such nostalgia 🎒🥺📆. Wonderful memories.

I miss the days back when watching Days was my main goal back when Stefano was around! Without him I barely recognize Days anymore!

rememeber these in the 90's growing up like the "young and the restless" and "7th heaven" and "touched by an angel"

I like the hourglass. I wish I had it.

Mom loved it when I was a kid in 70s and 80s...we knew we were on vacation or sick when it was on....watched on black and white tv...never new hourglass was brown till I was grown....mom has passed, but I have a replica of that hourglass now...I keep it in her "corner " with her stuff....such simpler times back then (as a kid)..

My mom use to love this show… RIP 🪦 mom

TONIGHT......on Days of Our Steelers!

My sister and I used to spend a lot of our summers with my grandparents. I t was a long time ago. At the time, my grandfather was still working...not yet retired. My grandmother would get him up by 5:00 AM and fix breakfast (it smelled so good I would go ahead and get up too). This must have been back in 1970-72, because my grandfather retired in 1974. I remember my grandmother cleaning kitchen spotless, hoovering rug, laundry, and getting lunch set up. THEN...after my grandmother did her housework she would sit down for about 20 to 30 minutes just to watch this soap opera. I remember the introduction with the big hourglass...and the theme song...and narrator. I actually logged onto KZread to find the intro, because my sister asked me only yesterday...."what was the name of that soap opera that grandma used to watch in the 70's." She thought it was "The Young and Restless"...I said no....think it was "General Hospital". I asked my 85 year old mother..."Which soap opera always had the introduction with the big hour glass"? That's how we finally figured out..."it was DAYS OF OUR LIVES"! Classic! Good memories...love it!

Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our lives this is marlena Evans and these are the days of our lives.

I watched this back in the 90's with my sis and cousin, LOVED THIS SHOW

Like a sand through time, these are the "Days of Our Lives".

Children of the 70s and 80s, this is your chance to get into whatever mischief you couldnt otherwise. You have two commercial breaks of time. GO!

I came on youtube just for this intro, memories oh sweet memories 🤗

My mom used to watch this shit all the time when I was a kid

I was born in 1992, and for some reason this intro freaked me out growing up. I randomly remembered it and looked it up.

0:11 "Days of our Steelers" sent me here (I'm a Ravens fan btw)

Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our lives.

Like corn through a goose, so are the days of our lives

I grew up in the 80s as a kid. Everytime I lied about being sick and going to elementary school, my mom would watch ATWT, DOL, and Y&R soap and then I knew its lunch time or 11am because The Price is Right will be on. Today, I feel like cell phones and internet took a lot of the carefree, magic and fun away from a lot of kids today. Such a pity. 😥😥😥😥

They run this show here in the Philippines when I was in high school, and did watch it and loved it. I remember Hope who lost her memory or identity. 😅

man I remember laying on the floor playing with legos while my mom would watch this religiously, so nostalgic

who else can smell the pine sol from mom mopping the floor, doors propped open to dry them, on a balmy carefree summer day?

These were amazing shows.

*THIS WEEK...ON DAYS OF OUR STEELERS* ...wait wrong video sorry folks

Man…I miss these days…what the hell happened to the world and society 😔

Whenever my grandmother visited this was the soap she watched.😊

Like Sands thru the Hourglass so are the Days Of Lives this is MacDonald Carey these are the Days Of Our Lives his Voice has it all he died in 94 age crazy 81 so he was in his 50s when Days started in the 60s thru the next couple of decades

We are living on the Golden Era my people! This is the best video !

i would see this on the TV as a kid and I drove myself absolutely mad for the past 16 years trying to find this

Yes been a fan since I was 5 I’m 43 lol omg grandma and may mom so obsessed lol my favorite soap along with general hospital but days is the best!! I miss Sami Brady she’s was my favorite of all favorites!! Lol

Man, idk if my mother still watches this but I remember when it would always come on. I couldn't watch cartoons when it did XD

I wanna give a shout-out to my grandparents💪🏽 miss y’all like crazy

God rest my grandmas soul this was her favorite show she did not speak one word of English but she would watch this show every morning 😢

Apparently this and guiding light were my grandma's favorite shows that she watched constantly. I never got to meet her but when I see this (or listen to Glenn Campbell) I think about her. I wonder if she would have liked below deck
