Olympic theme tune

[sallykite]

Does anyone know what the music is that is the BBC's theme tune for the Olympics this year? it's a sort of classical / greek piece?

The first tune used is The Hibe - Hate to Say I Told You So, but the second one I myself is trying to find out.

The music used in the opening credits and interactive background on BBC's Olympic coverage is called Olympia: Eternal Flame and is a specially commissioned piece sung by the hottest new classical/opera sensations, Amici Forever. Their best selling debut album "The Opera Band" is available in most record shops (which from 26th August will include the Olympic piece as a bonus track too) and more information about the band can be found on their website: www.amiciforever.com Hope that helps :-)
