But even iconic songs need updating. Enter Mason, Hollywood music producer.
From Harvey Mason Media in North Hollywood, he has spent the past few weeks producing music for an updated version of the song, commissioned by CBS.

The new version will be used at this year’s tournament.
One major change – Mason is adding a 50-person choir he said “will sound amazing.”
