This song has definitely become a status symbol of "Jeopardy!". But, for those that don't know, on NBC in the late 70s was broadcasted "The All-New Jeopardy!" who's the only version of the program to completely discard this song. And that's simply because "Final Jeopardy!" was replaced by a short-lived bonus board called "Super Jeopardy!" (not to be confused with the 1990 tournament of the same name) which is mainly based on Bingo.
During Art Fleming’s time it was pitched. 1964-1996 - Sounds it will put me to sleep 1997- It’s ok 1997-2008 - Well, they added some stuff on the first think. 2008- Familiar 2008- - Our current one
I don't need to tell you how much all of the American versions' music cues are classic. I will give my thoughts on the foreign counterparts, though: Australian version (4:17) - Sounds like generic elevator music. German version (4:48) - Sounds almost like a tune from a generic reality show. Polish version (5:17) - Sounds like the opening notes of Fox's "Don't Let Fox Weekend Pass You By" promo from the 80s. French-Canadian version (5:48) - Sounds like music from a stage in Bomberman Hero on the N64. Russian version (6:18) - See my thoughts on the German tune. Turkish version (6:50) - Artificial-Thunder was right-- it sounds like something a PARODY of Jeopardy! would be using to avoid copyright claims. UK version (7:22) - Trevor Martin was right-- it sounds like something from a horror movie. (Though it kinda reminds me of the old Simitar Entertainment jingle...)
The Australian version sounds like the town/shop theme of a JRPG that takes place in modern times. Instead of thinking of a response, I'm thinking "Should I buy 99 herbs for the next dungeon? Are there poisonous enemies? Maybe some antidotes? I could use a new sword and some new armor..."
I have thoughts of other variants JEP! - Catchy Rock and Roll- Sounds familiar to jep! But it’s good Sports- Sounds like a taping of a 1950s marching band 1. Sounds different 2. Sounds like carol of the bells but less dramatic 3. Va Banque- Sounds like a diner radio or a romance sequel. 4. It’s okay. 5. Sounds like a dragon at the end But it Risk: SO MANY SWITCHAROOS! Britain- A little bit of horror

I've got one. Category: New Jersey Colleges Question: In 1973 this college was built in Little Falls, New Jersey with a Commuter Rail Station there. Answer: What is Montclair State University?
JEP’s think music is catchy, Rock n Roll Jeopardy’s think music was used for special tournaments for the main show, the Sports Jeopardy think music, to me, sounds cheap and does not sound like a marching band! It sounds like something anyone could make on their iPhone or Android phone! Australia’s think music is forgettable! Va Banque’s think music is just classy! Canada’s Jeopardy think music sounds like it came from an eighties aerobics class! Russia’s think music is just epic! Turkey’s think music sounds like it is trying and failing to be the American version of the Jeopardy think music and was recorded in a library! The United Kingdom’s think music is epic, if you can ignore that the host is talking over it telling you the rules that we already know!
Merv Griffin wanted the Final Jeopardy! music to be calm and soothing. The British version's was anything but that. Germany's was also an intense one though not as intense as the British one. It would've been nice, however had you ended this with France's version from the 80s and early 90s. It was very similar to the American 1997 version.
This music contains all of the Think Music from Jeopardy!: 1964-1975, 1978-1979, 1983-1984 Pilot(s), 1984-1997, September 1997, September 12, 1997-July 25, 2008, September-October 2008, October 13, 2008-Present, including Sports Jeopardy!, and the Jep!

I don't need to tell you how much all of the American versions' music cues are classic. I will give my thoughts on the foreign counterparts, though:
Australian version (4:17) - Sounds like generic elevator music.
German version (4:48) - Sounds almost like a tune from a generic reality show.

French-Canadian version (5:48) - Sounds like music from a stage in Bomberman Hero on the N64.
Russian version (6:18) - See my thoughts on the German tune.
Turkish version (6:50) - Artificial-Thunder was right-- it sounds like something a PARODY of Jeopardy! would be using to avoid copyright claims.
UK version (7:22) - Trevor Martin was right-- it sounds like something from a horror movie. (Though it kinda reminds me of the old Simitar Entertainment jingle...)
Come to think of it... yeah, I think it would work perfectly there, too. What about your thoughts on the other foreign themes?
Well, Russian think music is not really bad. Also, that's a third think music in Russian version
trust us for our think music, UK is basically like that
The Australian version sounds like the town/shop theme of a JRPG that takes place in modern times.
Instead of thinking of a response, I'm thinking "Should I buy 99 herbs for the next dungeon? Are there poisonous enemies? Maybe some antidotes? I could use a new sword and some new armor..."
Andrew Schroy ok thx
I have thoughts of other variants
JEP! - Catchy
Rock and Roll- Sounds familiar to jep! But it’s good
Sports- Sounds like a taping of a 1950s marching band
1. Sounds different
2. Sounds like carol of the bells but less dramatic
3. Va Banque- Sounds like a diner radio or a romance sequel.
4. It’s okay.
5. Sounds like a dragon at the end
But it Risk: SO MANY SWITCHAROOS!
Britain- A little bit of horror
Out of these outside of original remixes, I like Büyük Risk's one the most. It's original, but keeps the spirit of the tune and it just sounds nice
It’s actually RIZIKO!’s.
The US jeopardy sounds amazing and just, CLASSIC.
Jesus Christ loves you and all

Why does the Australian version makes me feel like I need to buy potions and herbs in a JRPG?
Strange. Sounds like the Earthbound inn theme.
Or a late 90s Shin Megami Tensei item shop.
Eh. Sort of.

they obviously can't
I could see them using the Sports Jeopardy think music for the College Championship.

I like the 1997 version, 2008-present, JEP!, and Rock and Roll Jeopardy
RIP Alex Trebek (1940-2020)
Büyük Risk sounds so calming. :)
Lorenzo's Oil ripoff tho
No it's the German version

I'm actually familiar with the think music from 1997 - 2008 than the one we currently have.
it's the same but now it is better quality lool
I'm more familiar with the original one btw.
The UK think music from 1992-93 should be used for a $10,000,000 tournament.
Jep (1997) Rock & Roll Jeopardy (2001) and Sports Jeopardy (2014)
on GSN (1996) 2;44
Jeopardy sounded way cooler in the 80s and 90s
I love whatever Countrys version that is at 4:49

The _Sports Jeopardy_ think music was used for one of the recent tournaments.

I think Buyuk Risk's think music was used on the miracle on ever green terrace ep of simpsons as well as any american parody of jeopardy minus SNL versions.
In the first two seasons of the American show, the exclamation point after the Y was taller.
OMG Jeopardy is one of my favorites
The Russian one sounds like Final Fantasy 7 boss music.
Alex trebek was great on Jeopardy! Think music was so great in 1984,1985,1986,1987,1988,1989,1990,1991,1992,1993,1994,1995,1996,1997 and 1998
is it me or does buyuk risk sound like it might put someone to sleep
Riziko!
Why am I getting sleepy?
Die Russlands probably because of the Turkish theme I can just fall asleep from that one
Fun fact: Merv Griffin originally composed the melody of the US think music as a lullaby for his son Tony.
