David Duchovny, star of The X Files, tells a story about the origin of the theme for that tv series.
Duchovny says that when Snow was working on the theme, he was asked how it was going. According to Duchovny, Snow said something like this:
"Well, this is all I have so far:
(sung to the eventual theme)
The X-Files is a show
With music by Mark Snow!
I think I'll just repeat that over and over..."
