**More TV Themes That Had a Life of Their Own** 1. The Simpsons - Composed by Danny Elfman in 1989, the theme won the National Music Award for Favorite TV theme in 2002, won the BMI TV Music Award in 96, 98, and 03, and was covered by Green Day as well as Wheezer. 2. Rockford Files - Another Mike Post masterpiece. Stayed on the charts for four months 3. The Jeopardy Theme - it might not have charted but everyone knows it! 4. Cheers (Where Everybody Knows Your Name) - recently adopted, completely without irony, for a marketing campaign by Applebee’s 5. Friends “I’ll Be There For You” - topped the Billboard charts for 8 weeks 6. Baretta (Keep Your Eye On The Sparrow) - reached #20 on the Billboard Hot 100 7. “The Pink Panther Theme” - Henry Mancini wrote it in 1978 for the film of the same name, but it became more popular with the cartoon series. 8. The Twilight Zone - Those four repeated notes are instantly recognizable, and have become synonymous with anything weird or creepy. 9. Theme from “The Young and the Restless” – after it was used as background music by ABC’s _ **’Wide World of Sports’** _ in a montage of Nadia Comaneci during the 1976 Olympics, it became known to millions of non-soap opera viewers as “Nadia’s Theme”. It was subsequently released as a single through A&M Records and peaked at #8 on the _Billboard_ Hot 100 charts. 10. The [original MTV theme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=182oUgBfoLE). Practically every television retrospective of the 80’s ever made features the linked music and video clip when ‘establishing the decade.’ **Memorable TV ad jingles** 1.
