Countdown Temporarily Changes Music
Countdown Temporarily Changes Music
For 5 episodes from 29th April to 3rd May, Countdown will temporarily use a piano arrangement in place of the iconic theme tune to promote the second series of Claudia Winkleman’s hit talent show The Piano, which began on 28th April. Watch to see what I mean. A few other Channel 4 shows, including Gogglebox, will also use a temporary piano arrangement.

Interesting.. look forward to hearing it. I've never heard a good piano arrangement of it yet. It's too percussive and synthy.

This should be a regular thing.
Looking forward to reggae , country and drum and base versions.
I'm sure a geek with AI knowledge could give us a preview

Sounds like a late April Fools' joke.
Re: Countdown Temporarily Changes Music
As I expected, just the intro and not the clock music that has the piano arrangement (which sounds pretty nice).

Re: Countdown Temporarily Changes Music
Yeah it's decent.
I wonder if it's physically possible on one piano. I don't have a good enough ear to tell but it sounds like it might be 2 pianos. Or could all be computer-played.
Also in general I think it sounds really thin/tinny. Maybe I'm too used to the old one.
Anyway I thought I wasn't going to like it and it's decent and a nice change.
