I was surprised. They're just the latest throwaway boy and with no talent. Wouldn't stick up for them! Only been out a few months, one album, usual boyband, there'll be another similar one out next year. It's meant to showcase the best of British music from the last 50 years. One direction does not fall into that category AT ALL !! Bit like the US having a 'best music from the last 50 years' and Justin Bieber is there, be embarassing
Btw, lol Jessie J. Anyways, just watched the extinguishing again on NBC. It's definitely been a great 17 days of sports. Going to be so old when the 2016 Olympics start, heh.
'Dominated' ? They just got more gold than China and at one stage China had more golds for most of the tournament. Dont get me wrong i love the US and glad they did well, but as always theres 'some' big headed comments which makes you sigh. 2 years time ?
He could mean FIFA World Championship Tournament/Cup in Brazil in 2 years. Despite loving opening and closing ceremonies of Olympics, and of course Bolt running, I'm looking forward to football's wc more
Oh yeah there's those games too. Finland had an embarrassing loss to USA in last games on hockey Rematch time lol. We did win world championship a year after, but still, rematch and a win to regain pride wouldn't hurt Seems like US doesn't focus so much on WC as Olympics. That's probably due to Stanley cup finals. Actually I think that's the case with almost every team
Well you know what i mean ! Talking about 'one direction' in the best of british music the last 50 years is ridiculous
It is ridiculous, as one direction are talentless twatbags. However, i guess they wanted a general scope of popular British music, which is why we got the equally awful Spice Grannies. Still, overall, loved the multicultural mix up and the Freddie Mercury + Lennon bits were quality. Did we really have to celebrate London's anorexic fashion? Last thing i want to see is those stuck up b******s prancing around. Cokeheads have no place in an Olympic ceremony.
Yeah that bit was boring with those skinny models. Shame a fair few people turned it down, Kate Bush was asked but said no, Rolling Stones also and the Sex Pistols (So John Lydon doesnt turn down a tack tacky butter commercial but wont do this gig ?). Weird. The opening ceremony was far better than i thought, the closing one wasnt too bad, just annoyed by some of the crap like Jessie J who has only been 'popular' for a bit, she got a lot of airtime sadly. I'm no George Michael fan but thought it was bad his second song was his new single hes promoting (and it wasnt even good). Thought the Spice Girls sounded poor. To be honest my favourite group (Oasis/Beady Eye), Liams voice wasnt the best, glad they were there but wasnt the best performance, think after a long world tour his voice needs a rest (it sounded far better earlier this year when i saw them play). Enjoyed all the sports though, often theres nothing on TV, did enjoy watching a variety of sport. Being from the UK though i was very happy the Olympics was a huge success, plus a huge amount of medals for Team GB after a terrible performance 4 years ago at Beijing. Rio's got a lot of pressure on them !
Haha yeah George's second song was defo a WTF moment for me, very poor. I don't know much about Jessie J but she has a strong voice, though I kinda just wish they'd kept those screens in the middle and let Freddie sing we will rock you instead. Also, would have been great to see Liam + Noel on stage for Wonderwall... maybe with some security seperating them so they didn't smash eachother up afterwards
