  • I didn't remember NBC doing 1988

    .

    I thought it was ABC.  Hmmm

    .

  • @harleykman ABC did the Winter Olympics. Which was in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

  • nice song, but the soundquallity SUX!

  • UPLOADER

    :

    If you turn off the "Hi-Fi" on your VCR that will eliminate the static sound (the ripple sound)

    .

  • korea is the number one country

  • Man, it's like it's getting worse everytime it plays and has to rewind, still great though, so great

  • I am starting to play this in my band. It sounds lower and a lot different but it's cool to hear it like it's supposed to be.

  • JACK MEHOFF

  • look for the fake names in the credits!!!!!

    howard z. lives!

  • I love John Williams music!

  • I think this is one of John William's better Olympic Themes.

  • Man, I've only had this on audio recording since I was 15! I was able to speak along with the voice-overs! My favorite Olympic song, by the way.

  • When NBC does something in sports or something big, they go all out. That's why we still remember these themes because they hired John Williams to compose them. The music fits the event.

  • I love John Williams. Right now I'm working on this piece along with the Olympic Fanfare and Theme for my piano. Its a little difficult, but it really captures the awe that we have for those athletes. I would have to say that I don't plan on watching the olympics this year because I can't stand how the democratic world puts up with the awful ways of the Chinese and I don't want to contribute any money or time to the Chinese government.

  • Face it. China is the world's emergent superpower. Nothing you do to 'boycott' or protest this changes that. The Chinese must change it.

  • finalmente l'ho trovata.

    erano anni che la cercavo.

    Non so come ma è una di quelle musiche che ti affascinano e ti entrano nell'animo!

    Esattamente come una disciplina per un atleta!

  • great music!

  • cool we play that in band :D

    TY for posting

  • Bryant Gumble sucks!

  • excellent

  • Thank you very much for posting! The Olympics rock! The music always makes me smile. LOVE IT!

  • Great post! NBC tried something different before just giving in and buying the rights to "Bugler's dream" from ABC once it appeared they would take over the mantle at the Olympic network.. I like this one because 1.) John Williams rarely composes a bad theme and 2.) it had a very NBC sound to it. If you listen to it just right you could almost hear the chimes or something similar being threaded through the orchestration.

  • you hit the nail on the head in number 2, I havr to play this in my school band, and it sounds VERY NBC-ish in person

  • amazing music

  • thanks for this video
