A great blast from the past.  I remember hearing this in the morning getting ready to go to high school.

Wow! So that's what I've been missing being a youngin...but seriously, I like that theme. They should do this once a year. It's so catchy!

Now, for the big money: You wouldn't happen to have another Ray Ellis composition for TheToday Show, "This is Today" -- the one they had to stop using because it sounded too much like "Day by Day" from "Godspell?" In particular, the cool jazz version they used to run the full closing credits on Fridays? I've been looking for a version of that for years!

idk why but theres just something about 80s and 90s music that makes me wanna kill myself

Made me think a bit of classic Sesame Street at the start (I suppose late 70s,, early 80s Sesame Street - certainly fits in the time frame!) Wish they could use this today  - even if it were just for Friday intros or something!
