'''Music/Sounds:''' Almost all of the variants have spoken lines for the blobs, provided by the BBC Sound Archive. Music plays after the logo transitions, and may range from a rendition of "Three is a Magic Number" from ''Schoolhouse Rock!'', an instrumental version of "In the Morning" by indie rock band Razorlight, an electronic tune, an instrumental of "Promiscuous" by Nelly Furtado or a cowbell beat (in the case of the yodelling ident). On 12 February 2008, before the channel's first rebrand, the usual music was replaced with music that followed the topic of leaving. Examples include "Release Me" by Engelbert Humperdinck, "Bye Bye Baby" by The Four Seasons and "So Long, Farewell" from the movie ''The Sound of Music''.
