I thought it was very cool how they lit the flame, and even better how the cauldron was made up of all the copper cauldrons from each country--I think that was fantastic and different.
:nod: Me too. Definitely super cool.

I ended up missing most of the opening ceremonies but I also thought the people with wings on bikes were kinda cool. :)

I like that the first song was "Danny Boy".
Often in London I hear the pipes calling from glen to glen.

Danny Boy... That's basically the name of the director, Danny Boyle... What a prick.

Ummm the song Danny Boy playing as an intro to the event.

Isn't that song a customary funeral hymnal?
Oh ok. Didn't get that. It's definitely an odd choice. Although I suppose if they really wanted a Scottish song and the proclaimers were busy, it's slightly more uplifting than Flower of Scotland".
