It really built up to the top the hour. I also loved the 2007 theme. They should defo bring that era of music instead of all the orchestra version.
I always loved the original countdown theme, which perfectly complemented the accompanying graphical sequence. But hearing it today, in comparison to the current music, I find it sounds a little bit clinical and robotic.
I might be on my own here, but I love the current orchestral arrangement, which I feel adds a level of lovely warmth and depth to the music.
