This programme explores how music is used in television programmes, films, adverts and video games. The Simpsons theme tune is just right for the programme and Darth Vader's theme tune in Star Wars is perfect for his character. We find out why adverts include music to get our attention and why music is so important in games. Featured artists include Beyoncé, The Specials, The Ramones and AC/DC.
