Nine Network: Difference between revisions

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' There is also a variant where the trumpet tune is more of a fanfare. The announcer here explains the transmitter info.

'''Legacy:''' These idents proved quite popular as many Australians sought to replicate the dance used in the idents, known as the "Channel 9 shuffle". Newspapers even published step by step guides to performing the dance <ref name=tvtimes />.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A re-orchestrated version of the "Come on Along!" song from ABC's idents at the time.  

===10th logo (1984-1987)===

'''Music/Sounds:''' A calm beat leading into a modern version of the "still the one" jingle.

===19th Logo (2004-29 January 2006)===

'''Music/Sounds:''' A contemporary beat.

'''Legacy:''' This rebrand was received very poorly due to its abandonment of the 9 dots and the apparent cheapness of its associated on-air graphics, which were said to resemble a PowerPoint presentation.

'''Music/Sounds:''' An intense score ending with a four-note jingle, which varies according to each variant.

===22nd Logo (15 January 2008-31 January 2009)===

'''Music/Sounds:''' The new network song, a modified cover of "Smile" by The Supernaturals.

'''Legacy:''' This ident marks the full return of the famous 9 dots, 2 years after their apparent retirement, and a year after they were used as a secondary element of the "rotating cube".

'''Music/Sounds:''' An upbeat tune with male singers vocalising throughout then singing what sounds like "smile" (similar to The Supernaturals' song from the previous ident) at the end.

'''Legacy:''' Given the short lifespan and apparent cheapness of these idents, it's possible they were a placeholder for the next ident.  

'''Music/Sounds:''' A grand, rising orchestration leading into the classic "Still the One" jingle.

'''Legacy:''' This ident marks the return of the classic Nine jingle, as well as pays homage to the 3D styling of the 2002 idents.
