PowerPoint Question

Ok i need to know if it's possible to have a song playing on the background of my power point presentation, is that possible if so how can i do this? i need to either have it this theme song playing in the beginning or at the end, if not threw the whole presentation, and also is it possible to add a video to the power point? Any help would be really appreciated.

Yep, all of this is possible. )

MS Office Online has instructions - I'm pasting them here. Hopefully this helps?

On the slide, right-click the sound icon or movie.
On the shortcut menu (shortcut menu A menu that shows a list of commands relevant to a particular item. To display a shortcut menu, right-click an item or press SHIFT+F10.), click Edit Sound Object or Edit Movie Object.
Select the Loop until stopped check box.
Note Some media formats, such as .GIFurl==http://=http:///url files, are categorized as movie clips by the Clip Art feature in Microsoft Office but are not actually digital video. The Edit Movie Object command is enabled only with digital video files.
