The Awesomes Theme Lyrics
Official Opening Sequence
Behind the Lyrics: Meaning & Story
The The Awesomes theme song is a high-energy, pulsing electronic track that mirrors the show’s fast-paced, irreverent take on superhero culture. Created by Seth Meyers and Michael Shoemaker, the series was one of Hulu’s first original animated productions, bringing a “Saturday Night Live” sensibility to the superhero genre.
The repetitive, chanting nature of the lyrics—“This feels awesome”—is intentionally simplistic and catchy. It serves to contrast the “Awesomes” team itself, which consists of D-list superheroes who are often anything but awesome. By repeating the word, the theme establishes a vibe of unearned confidence and irony that defines Prock and his misfit crew.
Musically, the track functions as an adrenaline-pumping intro that transitions the viewer into the show’s satirical world. While the lyrics are brief, the driving synth-heavy production provides the “epic” feel required for a superhero show, even if the characters themselves are mostly bumbling their way through saving the world.
