[KOSTASPARTALAS]

What is the name of the greek song ???

[TenTonnesOfDynamite]

The Chain by Fleetwood Mac (F1 opening) and this are the only titles that give me goosebumps. Just epic.

[christbone]

yes BBC, British Chanel glorifying Greek history and thanks Britain for stealing the fine artwork off the Parthenon.

[jimmeeduckett]

it's called Advertising. the Olympics is without a doubt a great event and the BBC intended to keep with the themes of the host country. can't wait to see the rain animation for the London 2012 Olympics

[CHRISTOKONI]

@christbone

it's the advertisement of the stolen part."Take a look on what marvellous civilization they have,come to see part of it here in london"

[SpiderMaguire]

there was another one very similar to this one, except there were a few more characters and 'the hives' (hate to say i told you so) was playing over the top...

[uchenjoku25]

fantast video, fantastic theme tune by the BBC. i like it.

[TABINTEOMOY]

The theme is a mixture of traditional Greek songs.

[gentlemanimal]

This is embarrassing compared to the 'Monkey' animations. It already looks dated.

[animelozer]

totally agree!

[LIMERICKPADDY]
