Personal themes - not all they cracked up to be
I know, I know... Darth Vader's theme music approaches and everyone's blood turns to ice before the hulking black shape even looms into view. How intimidating! Great assist in dominating the galaxy!
But think of the Christmas music that's inflicted on shopkeepers. They learn to hate those songs n a mere six weeks. Older musicians who get tired of that First Big Hit. Vader has ONE tune to get tired of. Behind the mask is, he sarcastically humming along? Has he made up humorously vulgar ditties to sing to his theme?
Does it stop when he's trying to sleep? And on being preceded everywhere, if your minions always hear you coming they can run for cover, hide the weed, Alt-Tab the porn to the background and generally look evil (not innocent) when he stomps into the room. Of course any sort of performance venue is right out. Can you imagine a comedian trying to get laughs with that playing? Good luck.
I imagine the Sith are working feverishly on a Force trick to let them temporarily change their themes so they can do surprise attacks.
