<P> Another legacy of the show is the popularity of the Hawaii Five - O theme music . The tune was composed by Morton Stevens , who also composed numerous episode scores performed by the CBS Orchestra . The theme was later recorded by the Ventures , whose version reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 pop chart , and is particularly popular with college and high school marching bands , especially at the University of Hawaii where it has become the unofficial fight song . The tune has also been heard at Robertson Stadium after Houston Dynamo goals scored by Brian Ching , a native of Hawaii . Because of the tempo of the music , the theme gained popularity in the UK with followers of Northern soul and was popular on dance floors in the 1970s . </P>
