Theme of Secrets was a 'New Age' album written and produced by Eddie Jobson, released in 1985.[1] Contrarily to his previous album Zinc - The Green Album (1983), Jobson did not use musicians on this record, instead relying on the Synclavier.

A music video of one track, "Memories of Vienna", appeared on the Channel 4 programme Art of Landscape. It featured scenes of the town of Vienna accompanied by the music. This also appeared on VH-1 in the United States. The album was released simultaneously on CD and on LP on Private Music label. It was re-released in South Korea in 2004.

A sequel of the album entitled Theme of Mystery was recorded, but was never released. Jobson made available one track (entitled "Antarctica") to the members of the Zealot's Lounge, his personal fan club.
