Theme Music
The theme music, "The Big One (People's Court Theme)", was composed by Alan Stanley Tew (British PRS, affil. BMI). Rapper Nelly sampled it for his song "Iz U", from the film The Haunted Mansion, and also featured on his album Da Derrty Versions. The tune was also used in two episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants and "Blue Harvest", the sixth season premiere episode of Family Guy. This theme was also used on an episode of WWE Raw in "The Trial of Eric Bischoff" and first featured in 'Barbara Broadcast'. The song was also used in the 1980 film The Satisfiers of Alpha Blue. Jay-Z also recorded a song called "People's Court", which sampled the theme. The theme music also appears in the movie Malibu High (1979), during the chase scene near the end of the film. It is also used as the theme music for the Balls of Steel segment 'Big Gay Following' and was featured in an episode of Boy Meets World, as well as Popular.

Famous quotes containing the words theme and/or music:
“If a theme or idea is too near the surface, the novel becomes simply a tract illustrating an idea.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (18991973)
“... the majority of colored men do not yet think it worth while that women aspire to higher education.... The three Rs, a little music and a good deal of dancing, a first rate dress-maker and a bottle of magnolia balm, are quite enough generally to render charming any woman possessed of tact and the capacity for worshipping masculinity.”
—Anna Julia Cooper (18591964)
