Did you realize that the "Mission Impossible" theme song has a rhythmic pattern that is inspired by Morse code for the letters "M" and "I"? The two long notes followed by two short notes ( C -- C Eb - F) or (dah dah di di) represent the Morse code for "M" and "I", respectively, which are the initials of the title.
Composer Lalo Schifrin used this as a starting point for the theme's distinctive rhythm. He definitely liekd his Martini shaken, not stirred.
