To think that he wrote this in his head on his drive home after seeing a pencil sketch of the opening and wrote the whole thing in a day.

@@user-vw8cm2ow4n Different composers write in different ways. Some compose "In their heads" without touching a keyboard, and some write at the piano. Makes no difference, as long as the end result is good music.

Danny Elfman is a legend, not only composed one of my favorite tv shows. He composed one of my favorite movies of all time ” Spider-Man”. I surely think both titles wouldn't be the same without his work.

[@jefflindeman]

Not to mention THEE Most icon theme of it’s genre, Batman, as well as all of Tim Burton’s films, etc.

[@Weeping-Angel]

One of my personal favorites is _Wonka’s Welcome Song_ I might actually be addicted to that song.

[@tomhacks384]

This is interesting, we are used to hear this theme as a custom but few really appreciate this is actually a masterpiece on a performance

[@stephanthienel]

Just now realizing that, with a full orchestra, this sounds like a Gershwin song.

[@jmaxg]

Lawyer: "Well, what about that tattoo on your chest. Doesn't it say 'Die Bart, Die'?"
Sideshow Bob: "No! That's German for 'The Bart, the'."
~gentle chuckles from the courtroom observers~
But seriously folks, this has to be perhaps the greatest musical TV theme ever written. Its whimsy is only matched by its sense of bland suburbia with a hint of cheekiness (obviously Bart) added.
I have heard many attempts over the years to capture this live. This one is the best so far even if the timing is just a tad slow.

Anyone else notice at 0:44 how they were out of sync but then corrected themselves at 0:48, the sheer talent for that many people to take only 4 seconds to correct themselves is astounding. Excellent performance!!

And you can imagine that Simpsons attended this concert: Lisa is listening with great joy, Marge is delighted too, Bart is singing inappropriate words, Homer is trying to silence him, little Maggie is sucking on her pacifier and looking at everything, because she is first time at the concert, and grandpa Abe sleeps and wakes up only when music ended...

Kairozart not at all !!! This was composed by Mr danny elfman the composer of the first spiderman, beetlejuice , charlie and the chocolate factory , avengers : age of ultron and many more.....

[@sandramc9903]

i dont think silly is the word, i think they feel like kids, they are enjoying it

[@kairozartstudio]

Maybe silly is not the right word. Whimsical, child-like. I'm familiar with Danny Elfman and his music going back to his Oingo Boingo days. He is an iconic composer/musician. The music is silly but it fits the context of the show. Doesn't mean it's bad, in fact, the opposite. It brilliantly captures the essence of the Simpsons, which is silly, comical. That's all that was meant.

[@chassiebazz92]

This is the opposite of silly.. it's fun and a very difficult piece, I play an instrument and the past I'd have to play, I don't think I could really do it unless I practiced that like 5 hours a day at least. If I could play that sing half as good as this I'd be proud. But once achieved I can tell it would be one of my favorites to play. It sounds amazing it's lighthearted innocent yet naughty and cheerful
