This is certainly better than the opening. Though not my sort of music.

Nope I was wrong. Much worse. Looks quite impressive though I suppose.

Prince maybe?

Some more odd performers in weird costumes. WTF? tribute to British fashion? God awful.

Sh*t ten second montage of Bowie songs...

Was it actually? It was a really cr*p song choice whatever it was.

Get in. Took their time. Cracking tune

Trying to distance myself from whether I actually like the band and just focussing on the songs and performances. Pretty much impossible with 1 direction though. Bit of a cr*p song choice for Georgey now though...

Wish we had the sex pistols out there.

I take it back. George doing some weird writhing dancing.

Good point. George was decent though, quite enjoyed that.

Not bad TBH and at least is well known. At least he doesn't show his age as much as some of them.

Just had a funny image of them seeing John's face and causing an uprising that overthrows communism. Powerful stuff.

Right here we go... Wow me.

This bit is pretty w*nk sentimental nonsense that the US love TBH.

Or Gary Glitter.

We do have some bands other than the Beatles you know! Some stones, Led Zepplin maybe?

Yeah and their anthem is pretty cool. Lets see what this bit is like in a minute.

What do you mean? Sound from the stage> Or the crowd?

Thank goodness it is at the end of an event that has massively surpassed what I thought it would be.

Really? It's back to that obsession that opening ceremonies have with people in weird costumes making ambiguous shapes and writhing about.

Thing is though I can totally understand them being on here. Known throughout the world and proudly British. Some oddness going on again. I like the arts but this is what happens when creative types get too much control. It becomes an odd interpretive mess...

1 direction is infinitely worse. Worlds most awful lyrics.

Six of us sad enough to be on here at the same time...

Yep. They were the highlight so far.
