Barenaked Ladies’ Big Bang: Watch the Music Video

The passing of Sherwood Schwartz this week was a potent reminder that the era of the great TV theme song is long behind us. Once multi-stanza’d compositions that managed to summarize the show’s back story within an incredibly catchy tune, current TV themes are more like seven-second instrumental bursts than “songs.” But not all of them! The Big Bang Theory creator Chuck Lorre approached the Barenaked Ladies to compose the CBS show’s theme, and while we only catch a short snippet of it on the air each week, the full version is certainly a worthy throwback to the great TV themes of yore. The band hung out on set recently, where they recorded a music video with the Big Bang cast. Check it out! Just listening to it makes you smarter.
