  • I hate it how they thought that this song was a joke at the beginning! It really is a good song. Too many people tie it to the NBC program but if you just listen to it you can here how it ties to much more than that stupid news program.

  • Well, before they started playing, John Williams said that they were going to play this song since we were all missing the evening news that night. He didn't mention what song they were going to play, so that's why people were laughing when the song started.

  • Absolutely the best national news theme EVER.

  • this has hohn williams written all over it!

    this music is so beautiful it could be from E.T. as well!

    at least it reminds ALOT of E.T......

  • Regardless of what it was written for, this is just a damn good piece of music!

  • @doomownage94

    "the conductor"???

    you mean john williams..... ;-)

    

  • @dshkoq Because it's bloody annoying. I hate applause in the video; it ruins it for me.

  • @TheVodKanockers It's a news theme, get over it.

  • @peleman24 Bud, that's what he recorded it FOR. So.. yeh. :P

    Of course, it is John Williams so we the listeners WILL tie it in with something else. but yeah.

  • The conductor reminds me of Colonel Sanders. You can't get more American than that.

  • This seemed so familiar to me, but the thing is I live in Australia. It turns out channel7 here uses the exact same theme song.

    I love John Williams, he stirs my heart (especially with E.T)

  • god damn john williams is a legend

  • @phantomlord54 sad but true, its all about money and media control. He didn't had any chance to become so famous without media imperialism like we have today in all over the world. But composition is too good to be attached to any commercial staff not to mention stupid news colored with political influences or blood money.
