But music, for the most part, is devoid of words. This is especially true of most TV theme songs. The melody of the song is a right-brain cue that is able to cut through all of the verbal clutter and send a clear, unmistakeable message.
Listed below are some suggestions to get you thinking about the possibilities. These theme songs can be found on the CD that comes with the book, Eight Great Ideas. (It's included with the book because one of the ideas in the book is about using music for management.)

Bones: Original Television Soundtrack is a soundtrack album featuring music from the hit FOX television series "Bones." It was released in September 2008, in conjunction with the DVD release of the third season of the show, shortly before the fourth season premiered.
The remix of the theme song titled "DJ Corporate Remix" was previously available online under the name "Squints Remix," referencing main character Seeley Booth's nickname for the Jeffersonian lab technicians, squints. Every song on the soundtrack (except for the remix of the theme song at the end) was featured in the first three seasons of the show, mostly from the music used in the ending montages of important episodes.
Robert Lopez and his songwriting (and life) partner, Kristen Anderson-Lopez, joke that composing WandaVision's many theme songs was the assignment they'd been preparing for all their lives. Marvel's time-hopping superhero story took inspiration from iconic sitcoms, reflected in the series' era-appropriate intros, inspired by shows such as I Love Lucy, The Brady Bunch, Malcolm in the Middle, and The Office. "We didn't really have to do a lot of research," Anderson-Lopez explains, "because if you grew up in the '80s and you were sick and your mom had to go to work, your job was to research television history, starting at 9 a.m., all the way until 10 at night."

"Take a little walk to the edge of town..." the low tones of Nick Cave's voice have become synonymous with BBC's Birmingham-based gangster drama, Peaky Blinders. Cave's music features prominently in the drama: on top of his track Red Right Hand, the show's theme, at least 14 of his songs have featured across the series. And that doesn't take into account the several remixes and covers of Red Right Hand peppered throughout...
The series is packed with expertly curated musical moments, with songs from the likes of The White Stripes, Arctic Monkeys, Johnny Cash, Radiohead and PJ Harvey popping up here and there. With such great music, it's not too surprising that they've decided to launch a Peaky Blinders music festival co-curated by show creator Steven Knight where fans will be able to revel in the music and meet some of the cast and creators.

I made my living for years writing music and can remember exactly how I happened to write "The Little Drummer Boy". It was in 1941 and I was taking a nap at my house on Lexington Road when a new tune kept running through my head and it seemed to me to be worth working on. So I went downstairs and wrote it out. I wrote it up in order to not forget the tune. I get the tune first sometimes a few words along with it but only a few. This time I knew that somewhere there would be a drum. I've known several French carols with a drum or fife and drum, one called "Pat, Pat, Pat" and another "Rah Tah Tah". This must have set me going. The words came very easily. Then I decided I would have it for a mixed chorus with no accompaniment and the sopranos and altos would sing the aria and the basses and tenors would do the drumming. Drumming, I remembered suddenly Ravel's "Bolero", a bigorchestra piece, do you remember in the '30s, where the drummingbegins very softly and gradually grows loud. The drumming, ofcourse it's real drums and there's a whole orchestra, so it getslouder and louder with the same ta, tatata, tum tum, ta, ta, tumgoing on and ends with a perfectly stunning noise. Well, Ithought I can't have that kind of climax with just voices so Ithought I'll have to begin very slowly and gradually fill innotes, the tune will go on just the same speed but the drums willseem to be getting faster and faster. So I did that, I worked itout and I rather liked it. It sounded like a folk song.I thought well, why not? Where from? Well, why not fromCzechoslovakia? Some people think that that's not quite honestbut it's done all the time and accepted. For instance, there'sthat "Shepherd's Farewell" which he said was a very ancient tunewith the most complicated, really difficult modulations for thechorus to sing, and he didn't know anything about ancient melodies. So somebody finally went to him and said "Now look here,old man, this is a fake. You made this yourself, didn't you?" Andhe had to admit that he did. And there were some nice spiritualstwenty years ago that everybody sang. Do you know that onecalled, "Jesus, Jesus rest your head, You has got a manger bed"?You don't remember that one, you're a little too young!Anyway finally the man who said it was a folk song finallyadmitted it was his. Then, of course, there is Elizabeth BarrettBrowning with all her sonnets from the Portuguese and everybodyknows they weren't translations, they were just out of her ownheart.But my tune started life as "The Carol of the Drum", you mayknow it by a different title now but that's the way it started. Iput my name down for the music, this is a little tricky forcopyright reasons but I wanted to make it perfectly copyrightproof. So I put my name down for the music and the words I putdown from a Czech carol. Then I realized I'd need a translatorand so I put down translated by C.R.W. Robertson. People say"Well, where did you get that name?" Well, I made it up. I hadworked on texts for a schoolbook series and I had done so manytexts that I was finally told, "Now will you please get a fewpseudonyms so it wouldn't look as if you wrote the whole book."And I was delighted because I didn't want my name all over allthose little verses so I got some pseudonyms. I made up some andI used names of deceased grandparents and uncles and they are allregistered at ASCAP, which as you know is the agency thatcontracts performances on the air and pays composers a percentage.So there it was, all done and signed and it was published byWood in Boston. And it was first recorded by the Von TrappFamily, you know from "The Sound of Music". That's what they'refamous for but they're much more famous for their most beautifulacappella singing before and after they came to this country. Afew years later Wood sold the song to Mills, a big New Yorkpublisher, I mean sold his whole business not just the song.Then eighteen years later in December 1959, a friend calledme up and said "Kay, your carol is on the air, all the time,everywhere on radio!" I said, "What carol?" She said, "TheLittle Drummer Boy". Well I didn't ever write a carol called "TheLittle Drummer Boy". So I tuned on a station, any old station,and there it was, the most beautiful recording I could possiblyhave imagined. There were about two words different as I foundout later and a little music, a few notes changed, but I don'tthink I noticed it then. And you could hear it somewhere everyfive minutes and I must admit, it was very exciting and sort ofdisturbing to me. So I telephoned the station and I said, "That'smy carol that you're broadcasting." So they took my name andnumber and called back and informed me that that was called "TheLittle Drummer Boy". It was an old carol that had just beendiscovered and there are about four or five men's names on thecomposition and a different publisher, but my name wasn't anywhereon it.The next day I telephoned the editor, Mills in New York andexplained what had happened. He hadn't heard but it hit New Yorkvery soon and it was plainly a legal matter and I was glad thatMills had a lot of lawyers that I could fall back on. So thenbegan a long legal thing, first they planned a trial, then thelawyer phoned saying that they were planning to send toCzechoslovakia to find the tune. And I remember his ferocioustone when he said "They're bad men!" Well, I figured if they werebad men they could easily find another bad man in Czechoslovakiawho for a suitable sum could remember learning the tune at hismother's knee. The lawyer said if it came to trial and I lostbecause I couldn't prove that I had written the tune unless I hadwitnesses standing around at the time then I'd lose not only "TheLittle Drummer Boy" but my "Carol of the Drum". He said we shouldsettle out of court. The men had spent enormous sums on promotionand it seemed to me that it was fair for them to get their part,so it was settled out of court. And that's the end of that partof the chapter.Now it goes on in both versions, both owned by Mills. Ofcourse, the publisher always owns the music, I don't own themusic, he owns it. He's bought it and he pays me royalties on it,this is very obvious but a lot of people don't understand so Ithought I would throw it in.Both versions have gone all over Europe, Japan, South Africa,South America, and it's translated into several languages. Idon't think it's been to China or Russia yet, I haven't heard.And there are a few postscripts also. I've had letters fromCzechs or people of Czech decent living in this country and theywrite and say "That's not a Czech tune, we never heard it." Andone of them said, "I always thought 'The Little Drummer Boy' wasabout the Civil War." And they all want an explanation which I'mwilling to give.Then about a year or so ago, one of the men who was supposedto have written "The Little Drummer Boy" was presented in a largeillustrated feature article in a Florida paper. He told how hehad written "The Little Drummer Boy" and how I was an old friendand had helped him. The article was picked up in Boston and otherlarge cities and people wrote to ask me about it. I sent toMills' editor and asked him whether I could write to Mr. Onoratiand sass him a little. "Oh, no," says the editor very calmly, "itreally does us a great deal of good, it stirs up interest."Now I haven't said anything about the television themes, doyou think I might? Of course, it was very soon made into acartoon with the Vienna Choir Boys singing the song now and thenwith a great deal going on in the cartoon. I must say I've neverfelt happy about the cartoon because it brought in so many uglythings. It had nothing to do with the spirit or feeling of thesong but it's gone on every year and ASCAP hears it and I getsomething for it.But I think the most fun I had was during the first few yearslistening to the various television presentations of it on regulartelevision shows like the Bob Hope show would just do the wholething and they all did it sooner or later. Some of them were verycommonplace, some were quite imaginative and there was one especially beautiful one that I can't even describe. It had sortof a feeling of the juggler of Notre Dame, you know the little boywho offers his skill of juggling, which I think must have been inmy mind a little from the beginning too. There was a great crossand when you looked at the screen, you were looking at it sidewaysbut with the back towards you so you couldn't see who was on it.It was huge, it went way up above the screen. And in the distancedown low on the ground the little boy came, I'm not sure that hewas juggling or that he was dancing, but he was offering somethingto the figure on the cross. It was very beautiful and imaginative.About the cartoon that's on television every year, I think Imight add that as I said I was unhappy about that cartoon becauseit had so much ugliness in it that had nothing to do with thespirit of what I had done in the song. So finally I wrote alittle play myself for adults and children with both speech andsinging and using the carol at the end. That made me feel alittle better because it kept the spirit of what I tried to sayand Mills published it and it's been used quite a lot in schoolsand churches. It's called "The Drum". 2ff7e9595c
