I don't think so - "Proud" was already five years old when London won the 2012 Games, and it would be even more dated now, twelve years after its release. It's still a good song, but I think they'd rather choose something much more contemporary as theme song (if they choose a theme song at all -- remember, Vancouver didn't even have an official one).
Euphoria!

Lycka till, Loreen! (representing Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest 2012)

Looking forward to the Games of the XXX Olympiad! Good luck, London!

I think it should make a reappearance in some form, maybe in the closing ceremony - to bookend the winning of the bid and the close of the Games. That song was so emblematic of London's bid I'd love to hear it in some form in the actual Games.

Of course it was emblematic! I remember watching a video with a lot of people making sports, and a man at the end with dirt on his fce after doing pole vault... That song was in the hole video, in fact i supported London cuz of that vodeo :lol: since Paris pussy song "we want the games" wasn't really good! I support your idea of putting it in the closing ceremony :D

In fact, it was pure luck. I was watching a Paris 2012 bid video and it was the first among those video proposals on the right side.
