"Theme from ''Mission: Impossible''" is the theme tune of the TV series ''Mission: Impossible'' (1966–1973). The theme was written and composed by Lalo Schifrin and has since gone on to appear in several other works of the Mission: Impossible franchise, including the 1988 TV series, the film series and the video game series. The 1960s version has since been widely acknowledged as one of TV's greatest theme tunes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 10 best TV themes at aolradioblog.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Best Television Series Theme Songs at the-top-tens.com )〕 ==Overview== The theme is partially written with a time signature which Schifrin has jokingly explained as being "for people who have five legs".〔Koppl, R. (Lalo Schifrin on Creating Mission: Impossible ), originally published in ''Soundtrack Magazine'' (volume 19, number 74, 2000), posted at Soundtrack: The CinemaScore and Soundtrack Archives〕 The original single release peaked at No. 41 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and 19 on the magazine's Adult Contemporary chart in 1967 (Leonard Nimoy, before playing Paris in Mission Impossible in 1969, also covered the theme two years earlier).〔(Billboard: Lalo Schifrin Chart History ) accessed March 9, 2012〕 In 1970, during the 5th Season of the Original Series, the theme was remade replacing the bongos with the drums. In 1996, the theme was remade by U2 members Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen, Jr. for the soundtrack to the film. It became a hit in the United States, peaking at No. 7 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and receiving a gold certification, selling 500,000 copies there. It also peaked at number 7 on the UK Singles Chart. In 2010, a fictionalised account of Lalo Schifrin's creation of the ''Mission: Impossible'' tune was featured in a Lipton TV commercial aired in a number of countries around the world.〔(Popsop: Lipton Yellow Label Tea: Mission Impossible? )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Theme from Mission: Impossible」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
