Seasons 1 and 2 of the series used a version of "Rock Around the Clock" by Bill Haley & His Comets as the opening theme song.
The show's closing theme song in season 1 was a fragment from "Happy Days." This version was performed by Jimmy Haas on lead vocals, Ron Hicklin of the Ron Hicklin Singers, Stan Farber, Jerry Whitman, and Gary Garrett on backing vocals, and studio musicians.
From season 3 on, a longer version of "Happy Days" replaced "Rock Around the Clock" at the beginning of the show. Released as a single in 1976 by Pratt & McClain.

The theme music for "Law and Order: UK" is a variation of the original "Law and Order" theme composed by Mike Post. The UK version features a more orchestral arrangement with a British twist. The music sets the tone for the show's crime procedural format and helps create a sense of suspense and drama for viewers.
in music the theme is the original composition of music that has not been changed the variation is the theme changed by adding more notes, harmonising, changing the ryhthm etc, but it still has to be recognisable as the original theme
