Would anyone else be annoyed if they change the theme tune?

[james130]

Cause I certainly would be. :(

[Niamh.]

be annoyed? em, I don't know, I don't think i would be overly bothered. My main concern is the show itself tbh

[joeysteele]

I am not bothered by theme tunes, I think it needs a new one anyway.

[james130]

I just get so excited when I hear those little bits in the ads and like playing in the bckground when Davina reads out the numbers.

[Jordan.]

I wouldn't like it at all.

The theme tune is too iconic and represents our BB. No other countries theme tune is as good or recognisable as ours.

[CharlieO]

i would be livid.

They should remix the same tune.

The remix thats on the menu of the BB3 dvd is amazing.

They tried that with the Skins theme though and I hated it. :(

I loved our BB's theme tune. :hugesmile:

They may not be able to use the same theme music, or even remix it. Often TV broadcasters commision the composers for theme tunes for TV programs.

If this is the case for the BB theme, it would mean the music belongs to Channel 4.

Looking at releases of it on CD etc,
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Big-Brother-UK-TV-Theme/dp/B00004Y33K
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Big-Brother-Various-Artists/dp/B00004WMYR/ref=pd_sim_m_h__1

It is released on the Channel 4 Music label, so chances are it was a commissioned work for Channel 4. Oakenfield and Grey would either have received a flat out fee or may get annual royalties.

Even if it was a work commissioned by Endemol itself Ch5 will still have to ask Ch4 for permission to use it. As Ch4 Music hold its copyright.

I would've thought Endemol owned it? :/

I dont like this mix.

[Benjamin]

I dont like this mix.

That is the original version of it. (the one I reposted) ;)

[daniel-lewis-1985]

Yeah i know.

But the 1st one you posted is an alternative remix by Oakenfold which i think is pants

It is, I didn't mean to post that one. :blush:

[Glenn.]

Im not sure. I think I would like perhaps a major overhaul with the theme, like a remix to obtain the essence of the theme.

[BBDodge]

It's perfectly fine. Re-arrange but don't change. Doctor Who uses the same tune it had in 1963 - fans would have hated a new one when the show was revived.

[penguinposse]

id be really annoyed to be honest, i love the theme tune

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Yeah i would be annoyed if they change the theme tune, & i have feeling they will sadly.:shocked:

[ourgus]

:nono:If it ain,t broke, don,t fix it.:dance:

[arista]

Cause I certainly would be. :(



Its a remix of it
so far.

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

:nono:If it ain,t broke, don,t fix it.:dance:

well said:thumbs:

[Vicky.]

Things like theme tunes and eyes and that dont bother me much.

As long as the actual show is decent I dont care about any of that :)

[Tony1111]

I would like a remixed version or something reminiscent. Maybe something like this.

Agreed. I would be soooo angry if they changed it. If they were "giving BB fans what they want", they would keep it the same.
