2nd Logo (1992?-1998)
Logo: On a yellow background, two small sparks of light write the text "PolyGram" in a cream-colored font. The text then turns 3D and bevels out. Two sparks of light then appear and spread out to form the red line underneath (also animated similar to the last logo).

Technique: Early computer animation.

Music/Sounds: A synthesized fanfare.

Availability: Can be found on their later releases, used together with the 1st logo.

3rd Logo (1998-2001)
Logo: On a starry purple gradient background (resembling Space), a bunch of 3D letters spin and fly around the screen. While this happens, stars can be seen passing through from the top left, top right, and below the screen on the left. The letters then come together to form the word “PolyGram”. A ball of light comes from the right side of the screen and starts spinning clockwise around the text in a spiral motion until it gets to the “P”. The ball of light stops spinning and then draws a red line below the “PolyGram” text.

Technique: Computer animation.

Music/Sounds: A synthesized fanfare.

Availability: Rare. Appers on very late releases from the company before the Universal merger.

Logo (2001-2007)
Logo: On a black background, a blurred image of the 1997 Universal Pictures logo fades in before the blur slowly fades away. The text “Universal Music Limited” fades in below the logo, and a glow of light appears on the text, moving from left to right. The glow of light fades away while moving back to the left, and the whole logo fades out.

Variant: On the DVD release of Leslie Cheungs' 2000 live concert, the print logo appears next to the logo for ApexMusic Productions.

Technique: Simple animation.
