ahh childhood memories i love whenever the beat stops at the middle of the intro and the drum hits they match the beat at the same time of a action screne that goes hand and hand
Crazy but pivotal. The one time WPVI had the theme done with a symphony, the protest was such that it was off lickety-split. It is one of the few news themes folks nationwide know is an untouchable institution.

I love how the clip of the snare drum at the end fits perfectly with the snare drum in the song. Perfect.

Gotta love the intro where the guy slams the bag of ice down, then the shot of the riders on Hydra at Dorney Park!

WWCP (FOX 8) use to use MCTYW from 2006-2007, it was reverted back to FOX News Package.

I haven't even seen a WWCP news open from that era use MCTYW. Post a clip or it's not true!

The London Symphony Orchestra version was yanked after just five days due to massive viewer protests.
It's also probably the only news theme which is offered as a cell phone ringtone, which WPVI offers for free.
