Couldn't find a place to download the theme tune (however, I haven't
tried that hard, given the price. Maybe someone else would find it for
you).
In any case, what I did find is this entertaining dialogue from the
Situation Room transcripts:
"And Kelly in Greensboro, North Carolina: "I'd like my final resting
place to be in THE SITUATION ROOM. It's a wonderful show, and I watch
it so much I'll probably croak during one of its broadcasts. Oh, and
play that music Jack hates so much at my funeral."
BLITZER: There it is. There it is. There's THE SITUATION ROOM, the
theme song. Listen to that for a second.
CAFFERTY: It's just awful.
BLITZER: It's got a good beat, I keep telling you that.
CAFFERTY: But it's just awful.
BLITZER: Do you want music, us to play that music while you're reading
these e-mails?
CAFFERTY: No, I don't. And I'll get on the Amtrak, whatever they call
it, and come down there.
BLITZER: The Acela. That's the fast one there.
CAFFERTY: That's it. I'll be down there on the Acela.
BLITZER: The so-called bullet train.
CAFFERTY: That's it. No, I hate that music. It's awful. I mean, I, you know...
BLITZER: It's our theme. You know, it's the music. It's what can we do.
CAFFERTY: Well, you can not play it during my segments, and I'll be
very appreciative. Thank you.
BLITZER: Jack, we'll see you tomorrow here in THE SITUATION ROOM, with
or without music. Jack Cafferty. He's in THE SITUATION ROOM every day
that we are here. Thank you, Jack"
