2. The Simpsons

The Simpsons has a unique theme song that was created by composer Danny Elfman, his most successful song to date. It officially took 3 days, 2 hours, 48 minutes and 19 seconds to create (according to Danny). It’s a rather discordant ditty with a disjointed beat, but it somehow burrows into our brains. Maybe it’s because the show has been on for an incessant 27 years. There are many different versions with slight variations, including one with an extended solo saxophone riff by Lisa Simpson herself.
