The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Sounds like a flute combined with a lot of EQ, leaving only the mids with no attack. This is accompanied with the occasional string pluck of what seems like a guitar. Same EQ, which makes the two instruments blend together in an etherial kind of way. Slap some spring reverb on top.
EDIT: The strings sounds like the overtones of a half acoustic guitar. I think the vibrato is artificially applied. It's kind of possible to make that effect by slapping the whammy bar, but not in a way that'd make it fade in like that. Maybe if you lightly touch the already vibrating string in the right spot you could achieve something like that, but I'm unsure if it'd work, or if it'd create an overtone on an overtone.
UPDATE: Yup, I just tested it. Those are definitely overtones of a guitar. I couldn't replicate the vibrato, so I'm pretty such that's been applied in post.
As a tangent, I watched all of House from start to finish when each episode was released by EZTV. As a result, I only ever heard the american intro despite being European. I didn't even know other intro songs existed until now. I guess they didn't have international distribution rights to Teardrop.
Hello, I am now confused. Can someone link me the song being discussed because I think I only know the US opening?
OP linked it in his post. It cuts right to the song in question.
You're right, my fault. Thanks!
