"Solid Gold" is a song by Dionne Warwick, written by Dean Pitchford.[2] It is the official theme song of the 1980s TV music show Solid Gold.

Warwick performed "Solid Gold" on The Tonight Show on November 11, 1981.[3]

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...
