[marykay4100]

[dtwerd]

[sweetheart2109]

I gotta say Athens was pretty good. It return to the place were it all started

[libras1974]

the most emotional opening ever!

[MPCANTE]

rio 2016

[elenafree18]

A read a lot of comments and some people saying ''things'' for Hellas...

So I'd like to say that you wish to be a Greek and have our history, our culture, our SOUL... maybe we are a small country and the last years we have economic problems but when we want sth and believe in ourselves we can do impossible to become possible....

[brethynda123]

Greeks. what can you do with them?

[remixchild]

thumbs up if you saw all 14 parts

[robertj1991]

chinas won was better then athens but athens was better then sydney

[sweetheart2109]

@robertj1991 Athens had more meaning the China and Sydney combined. For Greece it was like a homecoming because the Greeks are the ones who started the Olympics.

[Dizaynspeed]

Look at that screaming girls. :/

[Dizaynspeed]

Why greece is so nubish? I am not proud to be greek. Everyday our economy is going to worse.

[alexalex939]

@Dizaynspeed ur not greek malaka ur a mongolian.next time u reply. learn how to speak english u stupid mother fucker.

[Dizaynspeed]

@alexalex939 yeah man we are sucking :(. That's for sure. Dont' be so fanatic. I am from Athens.

[AiMiLiA16]

@Dizaynspeed Greece is not about money

Greece is about PRIDE AND RESPECT you jerk ! !

[Dizaynspeed]

@AiMiLiA16 Lol Europe will kick greece from europe as soon as they can. They will give us 88 billion euro and they will controll greeks with their money. Money is everything you justing bieber fan. And we are losing our all respect from europe. We asked France and Great Britain to protect us from Turks. Because we are not the power and we dont have the military and money. And the most important one we dont have any technology as Turks or any other Europe country.

[JORDANELLA10]

@omarmex91  Of course we are!!!!!! :)

[simpsonsfan2007]

A moment 108 years in the making. Go Greece!

[bum254]

the greek delegation enjoyed the spotlight the longest.. making me shed that much tears!!! very heart warming and impressive organization of the the oympics... beijing and greece has their own way of making the opening extravagant... incomparable...

[Vasilikii14]

HELLAS !

[Mihalakis1990]

Athens 2004 were the best Olympics EVER!! I live in Australia and the Australians still to this day think Sydney 2000 was better..... in their dreams!! ΖΗΤΩ Η ΕΛΛΑΔΑ!!!!

[cantonaorey]

Hellas! Grece! Greece!

[slwdr]

music?

[iphone13G]

@slwdr during the parade of the nations dj tiesto was on the decks . that's the only thing I know

[pissoua]

@slwdr Tiesto's "parade of the athletes" .He composed it for the occasion,look it up,very cool..

[YorgoSkep]

passion and inspiration made the difference in Athens Olympics!

[PrincessMIAAA15]

I really would have enjoyed the Olympics if many of the countries would have should their culture a little more ( not to offend anyone) but most counties were very plan ( outfit wise) they should have shown their beautiful cultures more. I liked that many of the people had big smiles as opposed to others ( no matter were they where from) and how some people bought their counties native and "official" outfits. I think it represented them more and gave an inside to what their culture is like.

[sidehop]

One LOVE!

[brethynda123]

I love how they stretched out the Greek team to make them look bigger. Hope GB can do this in 2012.

[exxxcccited]

@brethynda123 No body can duplicate the greeks

[NrdsWthGns]

@brethynda123 gb is planning 4 about 50 more than these guys, i wouldnt be surprised if they took a looooooooooong time.

[Ishmanorama]

gotta feel sorry for the greeks, who thought that 6 years later they would be in such a economic crisis... well the whole world for that matter...

[exxxcccited]

@Ishmanorama We still make the rules remember.

[ChristosM1]

Great moment!!

[CRYSTALTRAFFIC]

THIS IS IT !!!!!!! 

[Lukos2]

Αυτά είναι!

[86Berkut]

thank you Tiesto !!! 

[NrdsWthGns]

i feel sorry for hong kong. all the applause go to the guys behind them.

[753hill]

@NrdsWthGns same to zambia in 2008 when all the cheers were for china next.

[1010scarlet]

MAGIC UNFORGETABLE MOMENTS!!!!!

[leafs819]

I believe the best parade of nations were VANCOUVER 2010 & ATHENS 2004

Just the roars from both stadiums can be heard from around the world!

[BLUEWHITEBLUEWHITEBL]

@leafs819 I agree 100 % ! As a volunteer at the 2010 winter games , it was just amazing to see all these nations come together for this great sporting event(s) ! I got to meet all the Greek athletes and present an award on behalf of John Furlong and the organising comittee of theVancouver 2010 games.Meet many other amazing athletes from other countries too !

[SailorSaturn69]

wait!!! I think I missed Bosnia and Herzegovina,.

[nana21fiera]

@Skaf350

the song is called "greek team" by nikko patrelakis u can find more of his music on utube if u want :-)

[alexxzz2008]

@nana21fiera Where can I download it from !!! PLEASEE HEELP XD

[ch31114]

[alfaceandrice]

yeah that was better than beijing.

chinese people are 'cold'.

[MsCobaltBlue]

G.R.E.E.C.E., the birthplace of The Olympics showed the World, in 2004, why these were the "Unforgettable, Dream Games"! THE BEST!!!

Passion lives HERE!!!!

[YourFavoritePastime]

Passion that is unimaginable

[rulitocelt]

Best Olympics ever

[mezzcal]

¡¡Bienvenido a la gloria olímpica Río de Janeiro 2016!!

El club olímpico latino

Atenas 1896 París 1900 París 1924 Roma 1960 México 1968 Barcelona 1992 Atenas 2004 y ahora Río 2016

¡¡Bravo Río!!!

El otro club

México 68 - México 70

Munich 72 - Alemania 74

USA 94 - Atlanta 96

Brasil 2014 y Río 2016

saludos desde la gigantesca Ciudad de México

[fernandocortesg]

Paisano, Grecia no es una nacion Latina

[mezzcal]

uyy que caray pues he investigado algunos la consideran otros no pero como buen mexicano yo si la considero jijijijijijiji saludos

[tenta20]

wow! the atmosphere in that stadium at that time was electric!!!

[mezzcal]

¡¡¡ HELLAS HELLAS HELLAS !!!

Sabor Latino

Atenas 1896 París 1900 París 1924 Roma 1960 México 1968 Barcelona 1992

Atenas 2004

¡¡¡ vamos Río 2016 !!!

[schs1977]

Who are you kidding! Are you actually trying to say Greeks are Latino? You may want to take a world history class. Greece is one of the oldest country's on Earth and the Greek culture has been around for thousands of years unlike Mexico!

[mezzcal]

En la Grecia antigua, mantiene su independencia cultural con mínima influencia ajena (eslavos o turcos incluidos) y que establece una hegemonía principalmente sobre la cultura latina de surgimiento posterior (romanos).

[dragonyari]

This particular track was composed by Nikko Patrelakis called Greek Team. However, I was unable to find an actual track for it. Maybe someone will have better luck. :/

[cixelsyD1988]

Greece has my favorite overall olympic opening ceremony. They got the spirit dead on with the torch lighting.

Glad they got tiesto to do the music, a lot better than Beijing's music during the parade of nations.

[HELLENIGMA]

i consider beijing had no music actually , which spoiled it a lot really

[ZhangtheGreat]

@HELLENIGMA, Beijing looped its music, taking a few selections from each continent and replaying them over and over. Some people have an issue with that, but it's no biggie. They certainly weren't going to copy Greece and hire a live DJ.

[sid21aek]

greece rocks...best ceremony best music!

[schs1977]

The 2008 China games were too militaristic! But what o you expect from a Communist country! The 2000 Sydney and 2004 Athens were the best! I could not choose.  Both were great!!!

[ThanosTgr]

greece for ever.proud to be greek

[BobbytheCanadiankid]

Long Live Hogn Kong and China !

[xristoslarisa75]

i think that the song played when greece entered the stadium , if i remember correct ,was "lethal industry"

[90klop]

sorry for the chinese but after seeing this fantastic parade of the nations ceremony i have to say beiijing didn't accomplish to topple this the music, athmosphere, organisation everything was perfect beiijing was alright but athens was fantastic!!!!! hooray for hellas

[Phoenixadj]

TIESTO

[taken003]

much,more beutiful olympics ever is china....

MABUHAY PILIPINAS (philippines)

[sarissaki]

I do not remember another ceremony where the whole stadium participated like this. It was the heart speaking

[ZnerGy1986]

I am an Asian. By culture it is understandable that I will favor China more than Greece...BUT I CAN'T DENY THE FACT THAT THIS IS THE MOST WONDERFUL OPENING CEREMONY....THE GLORY THAT IS GREECE!!! Mabuhay ang Pilipinas (Philippines)!!!

[fineshot2000]

For being such a tiny country, smaller than the state of Michigan, the Greeks put on the best ceremonies by far considering population, still more impressed than Beijings....

[lostalex77]

@fineshot2000 youmust not have read much about the athens olympics. the greeks did a horribnle job,they didn't even finnish building all thew stadiums by the time the games a=started. Threy didn't finnish anything they promised to build to the IOC.  The athens games are considered the biggest failure in the modern olympics.

The greeks lived up to their reputations of being lazy.

[Mihalakis1990]

@lostalex77 Learn to spell before you start bad mouthing the country that gave the Olympics, democracy, science, mathematics, drama etc to the world. Yes, there may have been some 'unfinished' venues in the lead up to the games, but you cannot say that they were horrible games. You just sound like every other jealous Australian (even though you are from the US....) who didn't want the 'glory' of Sydney 2000 to be overshadowed by the Greeks.

[mpogias13]

@lostalex77 America? The continent?

[DespinaKouros]

@lostalex77 And who the hell are you to insult a whole nation? Sir, you really have to be careful not to bite your tongue because you'll die of poisoning!!! Gosh...what a loser...

[exxxcccited]

@lostalex77 You live in ur own pathetic world. So sad for you.

[burster14]

Athens' Parade of Nations was is sooo much better than Beijing's. From the music, to the strobe lights, to the stadium's arches being lit up for Greece.

[ususopen]

Ridiculous. Athens was not even comparable to Beijing's.

[burster14]

You can't deny the fact that Beijing kept playing bag-pipes and mariachis for the entire parade. So random and bizzare.

[exxxcccited]

Is that all you can say, LOOSER.

[mezzcal]

Woww sin duda alguna Atenas se reinventó en estos jjoo ¡¡HELLA, HELLA, HELLA!! y de fondo música de Tiësto durante el desfile de naciones, fue genialllll.

En una toma hacia el público se ve mi bandera ¡¡Méxicooooooo!!

¡¡Atenas 2004 y Barcelona 1992 son las mejores!!

Beijing fue un gigantismo difílcil de digerir, le falto espintaneidad natural de su gente y color humano.

¡¡vamos Río de Janeiro ojalá gane la sede del 2016 para los jjoo!!

[saiviorma]

Asi es VIVA MÉXICO!!!!!

[thisisabadname]

wow. how would you feel if you were those athletes from Hong Kong knowing that people were really only watching you so they'd see the Greeks? You're basically an opening act.

[rahdrian]

ahahaha that's so sad,. but true

[ZhangtheGreat]

A very creative way for Greece to fill the role of being both the first and last to enter the stadium =)

[wandavzlapalmundo]

ist obama at 7.55?

[saiviorma]

I love Mexico!!!!!!

Amo a México!!!!!!!

[RoPk27]

I love greece girls!

[gorbajof]

[petiteFISH]

OMG thats so wonderful!!! Thanks for sharing with us! The Olympic Games back home, a great moment!

[james757]

[Noaimbash1986]

i have always goose pimples when i watch this...but i was live there and u can be sure...it was absolutly amazing...HELLAS ROXX

[alfaceandrice]

Athens Parade of Nations was much better than Beijing one. And the greeks are much more "warm" than the chinese people.

[TheCrystalyorkSenshi]

@alfaceandrice I agree with you.

[international153]

@alfaceandrice because the chinese are communists!! long live greece!

[chiquisslp]

@alfaceandrice plues tiesto kicked ass lol

[buma1234567]

if all the people of this plane have a one gaol,one dream,unite for the future,,,,,and do the sportmanship for the political,social,religious,cul­tural custom,the world is at peace,no war,no famien,wasting of life,all of us living in the peaceful life,this planet is almost paradise,what do you think?!

[Noaimbash1986]

[shr444]

[xunior3000]

G O V E N E Z U E L A.....

[gurshe]

So how do we find this Tiesto song? Was it even recorded or was is it only put together for a one time deal?

[elanport]

this is a live mix!!! but you can find THE MIX ALBUM "TIESTO - PARADE OF THE ATHLETES"

[honexis]

sin duda alguna las dos mejores ceremonias de apertura las tiene barcelona 92 y atenas 04 las peores los angeles 86 y atlanta 96... esperemos que el 2016 sea sede rio de janeiro o q se quede en america del sur incluso hasta venezuela estaria en capacidad de organizar unos juegos olimpicos con los presios del petroleo por encima de los 100 dolares el barril tendra recursos de sobra para organizar y realizar todas las peticiones de la coi y mucho mas...

[alexxzz2008]

ooops, dejame decirte que la de atlanta fue una ceremonia muy buena, estoy de acuerdo que la de los angeles estuvo de la shit, pero la d atlanta estuvo chida, sin duda alguna, la mejor fué la de atenas, esperemos que la de beijing sea buena =) Saludos!!!

[delabuenavida]

Bummer..oh well At least we agree Tiesto is BadAss! good luck searching 4 it

Take care

Heres comming from

California

[delabuenavida]

Ok Buddy heres what i found out, All the songs in the olympics are in parade of the athletes album but..he also plays songs from his "Just Be" album, and friend of mine tolded me about it

I have the "Just be" album its hard to hear the music in the video but you best chances are to give that album a listen

if I could send it to ya I would but dont know how

good luck

[delabuenavida]

which song? I have a grip if music from him I might be able to help you find it from an album

[delabuenavida]

what do you mean? I Have the "Parade of the Athletes" album by DJ Tiesto

what do you mean by not publishing it

[alexxzz2008]

It was not published, the song is called "Greek flag" and it was mixed by other DJ, not tiësto, btw we're talking about the music that plays when greece comes in

[delabuenavida]

Yeah the music when the Greeks come in

but I wasnt the one searching for that Mix

Skaf350 was u should tell him, I was trying to help out

is it possible to download the song?

[alexxzz2008]

[pharmtek2604]

I'm also wondering if there is a Title to the song playing as soon as Greece walks out. Apparently it's not on the Parade Of Athletes CD. And I really like this song. Anyone have any ideas of the Name.

[alexxzz2008]

Its really hard to find, I'd dare its impossible, Its name is Greek team, or Greek flag, and it was mixed by some Nikolakis DJ i think mate

[cris1979love]
