I remember at my cousin's birthday we went to a luxury restaurant my family reserved for the occasion and some guy lighted up a Baked Alaska with this song playing. It was cool.
"Let us praise famous men and our fathers that begat us. All these men were honoured in their generations and were a glory in their days. We are here today to give thanks for the life of Harold Abrahams. To honour the legend. Now there are just two of us - young Aubrey Montague and myself - who can close our eyes and remember those few young men with hope in our hearts and wings on our heels."
in the movie, they aren't running in slo-mo. it looks at about 7/8 speed. almost the full speed. betcha they tried it in slo-mo, but it didn't look right. watch it again. good movie. produced by dodi fayed.
The beginning of this always makes me think its gonna break out into Ola Ta Lefta by Anna Vissi. If you're not Greek you prob won't know it, though...
you can't play "Track and Field" and not have this song playing in your head on one of the times 3 people suck at QWOP (if im not mistaken that is like track and field) and Track & Field
I seen this fim on FilmFour Monday evening for the first time. I always liked the soundtrack now I liked the film. It fits perfect! i just didn't know it was based on a true story.
This was the first song that I was ever obsessed with as a kid. My parents would laugh when I cranked it up in the my bedroom. I never even saw the movie...haha
i just did a play with this song and we had angels running in slow mo across the stage lol
