<u>Music/Sounds</u>: The sound of an audience muttering and murmuring is heard, followed by a shushing sound effect, and then a 9-note electric piano theme with drums composed by Jeffrey Townsend. The tune is very similar to the refrain of "King of Wishful Thinking" by Go West, but since this logo predates that song, this is most likely a coincidence.

<u>Music/Sounds Trivia</u>: The music in this logo appears at the end of the Neil Cicierega song "Alanis", from his mixtape ''Mouth Sounds''. The music here was done on a tiny Korg 05R/W rack with a custom preset. The "Shh" sound effect was done by British comedian Tracey Ullman. The sound of the audience was actually recorded by 2 people and were double tracked to sound like it's more. This was done by former Fox CEO Garth Anchier and Townsend himself. Originally, there were 2 music tracks that were not able to make it in the cut. One was a George Winston inspired track, and the other one is inspired by Phillip Glass. So the third one is the one that was added to the logo and was used for 30+ years.
