Heavy Action : ウィキペディア英語版 | Heavy Action "Heavy Action" is a piece of music composed by Johnny Pearson. Composed in 1970, and featuring a strong brass fanfare opening, "Heavy Action" soon became a well established sporting theme tune, most associated in the UK as the theme for ''Superstars'',〔(Johnny Pearson - Telegraph )〕 and in North America as the theme music for ABC and ESPN's ''Monday Night Football''.〔Chakerian, Peter. ''The Browns Fan's Tailgating Guide.'' Cleveland, Ohio: Gray & Co., 2008, p. 85.〕 ==''Superstars''== The BBC commissioned Pearson to write the piece for its music library, while he has working as a member of the Top of the Pops orchestra accompanying pop stars on the weekly music TV show. During production of the first series of ''Superstars'' in 1973, Heavy Action was chosen as the theme music, owing to its high energy brass fanfare opening and Olympian themes.〔(Johnny Pearson: Composer, pianist and arranger who worked on ‘Top of the Pops’ during three decades - Obituaries - News - The Independent )〕 The show (which aired in its first run from 1973 to 1985 and has been revived regularly since then) has always used the theme tune for all episodes of the show in its various incarnations, including the latest 2012 Olympic Superstars edition. The theme is now synonymous with sport in the UK, and was used extensively by the BBC during their coverage of the 2012 Summer Olympics.
