Note the Closing Ceremony does have commentary on the DVD, but it's different commentary, aimed at the British audience (unlike this Olympic Channel version which was aimed at an international audience who might not be well aware of British artists like Kate). Thus it tends to be less intrusive, and the overall sound quality is better.

One of the most spine tingling things I've ever seen. And it’s only on my screen. The beat and the drums was made for this kind of event.

Iconic. If you think about it, this is one of the best songs of all time and we were lucky enough to experience it.

I began watching this and felt really lost ... I was thinking "Please, why can't there be inane commentary to help me understand what's going on with the music and images"? And then, luckily, the commentators spoke and everything was okay again....

What an amazing singer she is! That voice! WOW!!!

So glad got to see Katie in 2014. An experience I will never forget ❤

Brings back so many lovely memories. I remember (somewhat back in the day haha) waking up to this tune one morning, as I was on a train from Copenhagen to Stockholm.

So glad these commentators were talking over the intro - it adds so much to get their insight. I think four people talking next time, with one person talking only about the weather.

I swear that song never gets old no matter how many times I hear it.
