Theme Music
The debut theme for The Early Show was a typical opener for an American morning news program. When the show reformatted with new hosts and set they used an instrumental version of Sting's 1999 hit, "Brand New Day" until late October 2006, when it was replaced by the CBS Evening News theme from James Horner. On January 7, 2008, CBS made an attempt to relaunch the show with new hosts and set plus an updated theme music that of the James Horner's composition. The theme was modified for a number of times since the reformat took launch. On June 27, 2011, CBS began using a slower-tempoed version of the CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley theme for The Early Show. This theme was formerly used on the CBS Evening News with Dan Rather between 1987 and 1991.

Famous quotes containing the words theme and/or music:
“One theme links together these new proposals for family policy—the idea that the family is exceedingly durable. Changes in structure and function and individual roles are not to be confused with the collapse of the family. Families remain more important in the lives of children than other institutions. Family ties are stronger and more vital than many of us imagine in the perennial atmosphere of crisis surrounding the subject.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
“Always, however brutal an age may actually have been, its style transmits its music only.”
—André Malraux (1901–1976)
