Beijing 2008 Olympic Games

Thanks to Loo I found the music video for the olympic games in Beijing that I was looking for. If you wanna sing along
here’s the lyrics 奥运北京:
竞技场上的对手 是我们的朋友
期待著这比併時候
登上世界第一 努力多少個年頭
从不会向失敗低頭
站在中国土地上 奥运精神更自由
让我们来手拉手 壯似長城 長比黄河
奥运在北京 团结世界的心
北京的天空更加美丽 因为你们光临
Welcome to Beijing 享受著全球的熱情
我们的天空 等候著世界和平
来自不同国度 说不同的语言
一样可以做成朋友
喜悦一样掉眼泪 输赢一样有感受
不成功也不会回头
If you don’t understand here is roughly translated:
The opponent on the arena, is our friend
Waiting for the moment of competition
To rise up to be world num. 1, after working so hard for so many years
One will never fear failure
Standing on China´s ground, the spirit of Olympic spreads free
Let us hold hand in hand, as grand as the Wall of China, as long as the Huang He (River)
Olympic in Beijing, unites the world
The sky above Beijing is more beautiful, because of your presence
Welcome to Beijing, enjoy the warmth of the world
Our world, waiting for world peace
Coming from different countries, speaking different languages
Still one can befriend another
When we are happy, we will shed tears, lose or win we´ll show through our feelings
One will never turn back without achieving success
hehehe–my english translation sucks, I know
. So love this song.

I hear quite often the song for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games over 988 but I couldn´t find the music video in youtube. I found this video instead although it isn´t the song that I´m looking for. I don´t know whether it´s the official theme song but this video looks quite impressive.
Wow..It gave me goose bumps all over after watching the video. How one can be so overwhelmed by happiness when one achieves victory after dedicating a whole life’s effort, training and aiming for it. Second best is not even an option because it’s all about winning. But then how one’s dream is shattered by just a small mistake because maybe there won’t be another chance to compete again.
Sometimes I think fate does have a hand in determining one’s victory. You can be all perfect while training but when come the real thing you just couldn’t give it your best. One will start thinking is it because I didn’t train diligently enough or just blame it all on fate?
I’m quite looking forward to this Olympic Games in Beijing and I’m sure the Chinese will definitely pull off the event in style
