Well folks there it is, after just under 5 years since I uploaded the video, the target of 1 million views has been reached. Thanks for all the comments that you like this. I only did it for a bit of fun but never thought it would reach this milestone...let’s see how far this could go into the future :)
I remember when this theme first aired, I emailed the BBC and asked if it was available to purchase. They replied no and that it was specially written for the news program. Anyway, about 8 months later I got an email out of the blue from the BBC saying that due the high number of enquiries they had received for the music, they were releasing a CD of the song with variations included. Of course I immediately agreed to buy a CD and it still sits happily in my music collection to this day. I thought it was really neat that they kept a record of my original email and reached out to all the others who had likely enquired about it as well.
When i play this at the gym on my phone and i put my phone on floor and people pass by and see BBC news and im wearing my headphones and training hard directly give me a look of whats wrong with you, who trains while listening to news!!! And i dont know if im weird or not but this music motivates me and it makes me lift heavy weights
I love how news themes sound Epic, inspiring and interesting but also have a darkness and urgency to them so that whatever the story the music is appropriate
This sound is very nostalgic to me. I am transported back to a time during my childhood, sitting in the living room on a weekday after sunset, watching the news with my parents. Those were good times.

Admit it, it's 3am and you're stuck on youtube listening to tv programme music for whatever reason.

Who's listening to this in 2024😂
Is it just me who feels like a dork for loving this?
The genius of David Lowe who discovered the magic note B which affects human brain like no other sound
I can’t cope how good our news bop is and we’ve been sleeping on it for years
This should be the national anthem
It will be a sad day when they eventually change this... BBC please keep this forever
You've got to love a country where you can dance to the news intro.

i love how satisfying the high note is near the end
It will be a sad day when they replace this tune with something else.
Anyone:So what's your favourite
