"Don't fuss with me." WHY;
I really like it! Very different from the previous versions, but I like that because the last few versions haven't been too distinctly different. Or maybe I just haven't been paying attention too well. 
Anyway, I definitely think this is a change for the better. Not a big fan, though, of the syncopation and pause between notes 5 and 6 the first time the 7-note theme is played, but I do like that the notes are more distinct. Kind of like classic and new rolled into one. 
(Oh, and by the way, the new theme begins at 12:29).

I love it! The new theme is probably what I have been looking forward to most in the new season. It's really short, though; looks like the intro format will be changing a bit.
The more I listen to it, the more I'm liking it. I would've hoped for a longer theme (maybe around a minute instead of 30 seconds), but the short version still sounds great.

I LOVES it! It's different, but in a totally AWESOME way! I mean, new characters, new designs, and now a new theme song. I think we're ready for the new season to start! All we need is the episodes!

this is my sig, but it is not attached by default, because I think I am too good for a signature all the time, or something. (More likely something).

Wow. I surprisingly liked it! Wow... I wish that they would just keep the original but, ayy, I guess 20 years, you gotta make SOME changes.
I do what I do.
I'm glad they changed it, and I'm glad it's a pretty big change too, considering how they seem to be changing a lot of stuff for the new season. It seems appropriate to have a pretty big theme change to start off the new season after the long wait.
Still... I'm not entirely used to it yet. I'm with Lizzie about the syncopation and pauses. I really like the background with the drums and chimes (or whatever they are), but the main seven-note theme that we've all come to recognize as Odyssey seems... too different. I'm all for change, but the timing of the notes seems completely off. 
Also, as H Tide mentioned, it seems too short. It starts off pretty slow and kind of teases before getting into the more bold, adventurous part; then almost as soon as it has started, it's the end.
Anyway... I guess I'll get used to it.

I think it sounds pretty good! Not as good as the past ones, but it's about the same. I like how it sort of has a "small town" feel and I can just imagine the kids running all over town, going to Whit's End. My favorite of the themes they've ever had would have to either be the very first one or the last one, from album 50, back.
And yes, they have something on their podcast about Paul's passing away. I'm almost crying.

I think the new "theme song" is utterly foolish. I find the current (or should I say old?) theme quite sufficient. But alas, I'm no marketing or at least hype-inducing person, so my voice is ignored.

They murdered it. I think the original one was timeless, and I don't think they ever needed to change. Also the podcast used a lot of assumptive language, something that we were warned about in th Truth Chronicles. As well, what was wrong with the fan fair? Nothing. Why are they changing? Right now I am questioning the decisions they are making.

P.S. Anything previous to what they are doing now is better.

As I mentioned in the Official Podcast discussion thread, I'm a fan of the new theme music. The original one was great, and I really like this one too!
I like it. I was ready to be all critical like I have been about every other change that came along, but I actually like this new song. It's not too outdated, and while the previous theme wasn't outdated, it seemed just a little bit too cheesy. I like how the new theme is kind of quaint, small town, style. (Though I also would have to agree that the note synchronization is just a little bit worse.)

Yep. Using my signature for a shameless plug. But trust me. If I can be so arrogant, I think it'll be worth your time.

It's pretty good but it sounds to much like the theme songs for the video series.
For those who originally missed the poll for the new Podcast music (like I did), here's the link:
