About the Jeopardy Thinking Music sound

Merv Griffin wrote this in about thirty seconds as a lullaby for his son, and it went on to earn him a reported fortune in royalties: comfortably the most profitable half-minute in television music. As psychological engineering it is remarkable. Pleasant, harmless, and utterly unbearable once you are the one being timed. Hum it at anybody taking too long to decide anything and they will feel the clock in their bones. Good for slow decisions, loading screens and friends choosing a restaurant. The doo-doo-doo of accountability.

OriginThe 'Think!' music from Jeopardy's final round.
