"By the Sleepy Lagoon ""By the Sleepy Lagoon"" is a light orchestral valse serenade by British composer Eric Coates composed in 1930. In 1940, lyrics were added with Coates's approval by Jack Lawrence, and the resultant song ""Sleepy Lagoon"" became a popular music standard of the 1940s. Coates had originally been inspired to write the piece in 1930 while overlooking a beach in West Sussex.

Plomley and the series' producer Frederic Piffard selected ""By the Sleepy Lagoon"", composed by Eric Coates (who appeared on the show in 1951). The tune has been used since the first transmission in 1942. The sound of herring gulls has"

The wide variety of guests, combined with Cavett's literate and intelligent approach to comedy, appealed to a significant enough number of viewers to keep the show running for several years despite the competition from Carson's show. The late-night show's 45-minute midpoint would always be signaled by the musical piece ""Glitter and Be Gay"" from Leonard Bernstein's ""Candide.""
