Theme Music
The show's theme song was taken from "Soul Bossa Nova", an instrumental jazz piece by Quincy Jones. It was sampled by the Toronto hip hop band Dream Warriors in their 1991 hit "My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style", and was later also used as the theme music for Mike Myers' Austin Powers movies.
Later seasons of Definition used a new arrangement of the song which was not as readily recognizable.

Famous quotes containing the words theme and/or music:
“This is certainly not the place for a discourse about what festivals are for. Discussions on this theme were plentiful during that phase of preparation and on the whole were fruitless. My experience is that discussion is fruitless. What sets forth and demonstrates is the sight of events in action, is living through these events and understanding them.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“We often feel sad in the presence of music without words; and often more than that in the presence of music without music.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
