Now, we usually just share the song that wound up being the final, official version... but... this time we had an early take that was just too good not to share. Dan was joking about how this theme should be literally made of money: coin percussions, dollar bills rustling, the works.

I would like to see a history of music. Like "why do we call it "classical" music when it's barely older than the US?" (the "classical" period is 1730-1820, 90 years. Rock is about 60 years old for comparison.

That song Simple Gifts is awesome. Thanks for the great work on the song!

Heheh, same here. I love that he took something meant as a joke and made this from it.

I was so disappointed that the series itself didn't have a mystery/sci-fi feel that would have made that piece work for it. I told them that it'd take something pretty great to distract me from my sadness over not being able to use the all money theme. So they made Simple Gifts and it was ALL GOOD.

The all money version put a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing it.
