I liked how the song built up

Yeah, me too! Much better than the "Keoma" theme. Just mentioned it since everyone are comparing these two movies anyway. Stylish film too, much better than expected. And the Blue Underground dvd was great!

Only problem is that the singer forces a deep voice, sounds funny :D

The theme song was so bad, though I found myself singing along every time it was played. The De Angelis brothers did the equally horrible music for Franco Nero's great Street Law.

Can kind of understand disliking the theme for this and Keoma, but Street Law? Kill yourself.

I loved the theme song! The music is often the best aspect about Spaghetti Westerns, and the song in "Mannaja" is excellent. Moody and sad, especially when he starts with: "This here was your father's land..."

Gee they're good at playing dead, aren't they?

Ha! I couldn't agree more. I finally watched my Blue Underground DVD, and it was amazing. Mannaja is definitely right up there with Keoma. =D

Sounds like Ozzy did the theme.

Yeah I'm one of the people that love the Keoma and Mannaja themes and music throughout the two films.

This had to have been done by the same singers who did the theme for Keoma (1976).

I’ve noticed that by Maurizio Merli, in many instances, shadowed the career of Franco Nero and this film is a strong example of that. I must say that I do enjoy Merli best in eurocrime, which I think he was much better suited for.
