"There is a truth to sport, a purity, a drama, an intensity. A spirit that makes it irresistable to take part in, and irresistable to watch. In every Olympic sport there is all that matters in life.

And one day we will tell our children, and our grandchildren, than when our time came we did it right."
- Seb Coe, opening the 2012 games

I'm loving the BBC's Olympics theme tune and titles package.  Elbow have done a fantastic job of the music, the way it builds and use of a the full orchestra and choir reminds me of some of Freddie Mercury's great song for the 1992 games in Barcelona.


The BBC have put up a fantastic little look behind the scenes at the composition and recording of the music, and the making of the graphics package.  Well worth a watch.
