A majority of the series background music was written by Japanese [[composer]] [[Shigeaki Saegusa]].  The melodies of the two opening themes and sole ending theme were written by American pop singer/songwriter [[Neil Sedaka]]. The first opening song used is called {{nihongo|''Zeta - Toki wo Koete''|Z・刻をこえて|Zeta - Transcending Times}} which was performed by [[Mami Ayukawa]], and used for the first twenty-three episodes. ''Zeta - Toki wo Koete'' was based upon the song "Better Days are Coming" from Sedaka's 1972 album ''Solitaire''. The second opening song used is entitled {{nihongo|''[[Mizu no Hoshi e Ai wo Komete]]''|水の星へ愛をこめて|From the Aqueous Star with Love}} and was performed by [[Hiroko Moriguchi]], this second opening song is used in episodes twenty-four to fifty. The song "''Mizu no Hoshi e Ai wo Komete''" was derived from an unreleased song entitled "For Us to Decide".

The sole ending song used for the series is called {{nihongo|''Hoshizora no Believe''|星空のBelieve|Believe in the Starry Sky}} which was sung by Mami Ayukawa. "''Hoshizora no Believe''" was adapted from the song "Bad and Beautiful" from the 1976 album ''Steppin' Out''. In addition to the opening/ending songs an insert song was also made called {{nihongo|''Gin'iro Doresu''|銀色ドレス|Silver Dress}}. This song is sung by Hiroko Moriguchi and is used in episode twenty.

The opening and ending songs differed for the International release version, as well as Japanese streaming versions, as opposed to the original. The opening song used is called {{nihongo|''Zeta no Kodō ~ Zeta Gundam''|Ζの鼓動～Ζガンダム|Zeta's Pulse~Zeta Gundam}} which was composed by Saegusa, while the song used for the endings entitled {{nihongo|''Gurīn Noa no Shōnen ~ Arata na Sekai''|グリーン・ノアの少年～新たな世界|Boy from Green Noa ~ A New World}} was also written by Saegusa.

The songs used for the three films that came out of Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam were all performed by [[Gackt]], and were compiled and released on his tribute album [[0079-0088]]. The first film ''Heirs To The Stars'' uses two songs; ''[[Metamorphoze]]'' is used as the opening song while {{nihongo|''Kimi ga Matteiru Kara''|君が待っているから|Because you're Waiting}} is used for the ending. The second film ''Lovers'' uses just one new song called ''Mind Forest'' for the ending song. Mind Forest is also featured on Gackt's album called "Crescent". The final film made ''Love is the Pulse of the Stars'' uses two new songs. ''Love Letter'' is used as an insert song followed by the song ''Dybbuk'' which is used as the ending song.
