Lovely ceremony but the 80's rock music was awfully cheesy, embarrassing really. The Olympics aren't a showcase for American pop culture.

Let's see, some acrobats created a big bird that looked like it flew into the screen door, a bunch of trees came out and danced around, a lady came out a clam shell, people dancing around in cow print tuxedos, and that's about it.

I love this aria. Lucianno -- perfect!!

Agreed, very nice. A beautiful song indeed. I won't even make a crude and/or snarky comment about it.

Bedtime for me. Waste of an evening. BAD ceremony.

Good night!
