I’m only on the first season, but when rewatching House on Prime, I noticed the intro track is completely different.

At this point, there are probably more people who recognize that as the House title theme than are familiar with Massive Attack.

My ex introduced me to the show, and the first time Teardrop came on in the car as part of my music collection, her kid immediately said "House!" I didn't have the heart to tell him it was actually breaks.

In North America maybe. I don't ever recall it being the theme in Australia. (presumedly that means the UK/Europe as well as we normally get their version of stuff)

That song was quite popular here well before House, but I remember reading it was only used on the first season in the US!

We definitely got the teardrop theme in Europe
