I want this soundtrack of the ceremonies, I hope they release it.

The music is awesome. I thought it had the danger of being full of rara communistic sounding stuff, but its ace.

I'm sleeping. Very boring, except two or three good parts.

I look forward for the parade!

Not a single breathing taking picture....

Annoyed they beat greece?

It's fantastic apart from the BBC commentary, which slogan should be 'WE KNOW.'

We know these games are controversial, but you dont have to keep saying... its so annoying.

The beeb also ruined the Manchester closing ceremony by BD constantly reminding everyone that it was raining.

INteresting take on a theme song, more of a lullaby than an anthem - but good all the same. Be interested to hear a studio version of it.

Sarah looked stunning as normal.

The smiley face pyro effects were cool too.

Awesome artistic segment. Going on a different tangent to athens, i liked them the same, just in a different way.

Liked the little moments aswell as the big ones. Simple things like the smiley face the kids drew on the scroll painting, the girl next to LangLang etc etc

I know i wish the beeb would lighten up for at least a few hours prattling on about smog, tibet, communisim, etc etc. oooh here come greece. who'll win the fashion stakes lol

The ceremony so far is far and away better than Athens. Stop being bitter.

can i hear bag pipes?????

Face it...they didn't beat Athens, because Athens was different.

Papaioannou mad an artistic performance that was continuous. China made a segment about enviroment, about the paper etc, that they are not connected.

Technological, yes it was better, but we have already done it in 1997 in IAAF World Championships.

Sorry, but the ceremony was boring, no spirit at all.

Glad the parade's started. Can zone out a bit now and comment. Awesomely spectacular so far. A great mix of technical an manpower excellence and beautiful to boot. The best ceremony by far so far. It's hard tp se hopw it will be topped (though I'm sure eventually they will be).
