This feels much better for a serious news timeslot. I always found the remastered 1986 theme tinny and underdone. This feels more complete in a way. I also believe it was changed because of the similarities in the SBS news theme, but for now it’s completely up to speculation.
this is a certified hood classic, i am glad that they brought back the good ol' trumpets, but part of me misses the bbc news style beepity beep boopity boop ahh theme they had before hand
The theme and graphics of this age just give a more serious news like tone and unique identity compared to the new one. ABC BRING IT BACK PLEASE THE NEW THEME SHOULD OF STAYED IN THE 80s 😢
Such a banger! Can't believe they're getting rid of this to reinstitute their old theme from the 80s (a pefectly good piece of music but just not remotely era appropriate). This theme slaps and is far better suited to the times
@@OffGridInvestor as I say, the old (new) one is a perfectly good piece of music. It just feels deeply out place in 2024, I feel like I'm tuning into an episode of The Newsreader and not the actual news.
This is the video that I have been dying to seen, sorry to hear this all go down - its an utter shame that for such a market (ie. Aviation) where passport, visa, financial and other forms of information are stored and could be stored for years, was able to be bypassed and used for utter shame. Still an amazing video Kevin.
Channel 5 should adopt this theme. There current news theme lacks a strong melody and considering both Channel 5 and Network 10 are owned by Paramount there shouldn’t be anything stopping Channel 5 from using this.
Amazing how Cool Hand Luke Tar Sequence became a news theme as soon as Al Primo moved Roger Grimsby from ABC News San Francisco office to New York as their main presenter for the New York Local News.
