Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games and London 2012 Paralympics are great too, still remember the music for each. Rio 2016 Paralympics one was quite good too. My favourite broadcast intro is the BBC London 2012 into.... the dramatic music is magnificent and exactly what an Olympic intro should be all about...brings back so many good memories. Long version: Yeah I can remember the music from Vancouver 2010, Baku 2015, Rio 2016, Baku 2017, Malaysia 2017, Pyeongchang 2018, Barranquilla 2018 (which isn’t in there yet), Buenos Aires 2018, and Jakarta 2018. My personal favorites for the background music are Athens 2004, Baku 2017, Rio 2016. I also love the 1976 ceremonies intro (I don’t know if I included that one in the list) “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

But just wanted to share what my favourite intro is. I like this one because of the dramatic music and is why i love the Lillehammer one. I like ones with catchy music too, like London 2012 Paralympics and Singapore YOG 2010. And it's nice when they feature clips of the sports being presented against the backdrop of the host city.

They get me hyped to watch, and I’m always interested to them for the first time before the opening ceremony. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

The games will be between 10-20 questions long. I’ll host the game (there by disqualifying myself) on YouTube by making a prepared video and livestream it at a announced time using the premiere feature. People would answer real time in the chat. There won’t be any prizes or anything originally, but if people like it and it’s doing well, I could maybe arrange something. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
