Music

At the end of their 1987 playoff coverage, TBS used Bachman-Turner Overdrive's "Takin' Care of Business" as the soundtrack for their closing credits sequence. TBS used Run-DMC to sing and create its theme during the early part of the 2000s (decade). The song included a version of the Stevie Wonder song "Higher Ground."

Famous quotes containing the word music:

    “If music in general is an imitation of history, opera in particular is an imitation of human willfulness; it is rooted in the fact that we not only have feelings but insist upon having them at whatever cost to ourselves.... The quality common to all the great operatic roles, e.g., Don Giovanni, Norma, Lucia, Tristan, Isolde, Brünnhilde, is that each of them is a passionate and willful state of being. In real life they would all be bores, even Don Giovanni.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “Your remark that clams will lie quiet if music be played to them, was superfluous—entirely superfluous.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “It is hard to describe the thrill of creative joy which the artist feels when the conviction seizes her that at last she has caught the very soul of the character she wishes to portray, in the music and action which reveal it.”
    —Maria Jeritza (1887–1982)
