Not impressed with Lennon?

I thought they should have used The Beatles version of Here Comes The Sun.

I just welled up when Lennon's face appeared, I'm not ashamed to admit.

Why?

The lights in the stands look amazing!

OK, they follow Lennon with George Michael doing some Europop number looking like Merv Hughes. Can there be a more dramatic contract between sublime and ridiculous?

George Michael is probably Jaynes favourite act so far i suspect.

oh yeah, bollocks (no pun intended) forgot about them!

Largehat, you happy now?

BTID, I was hoping he might appear in person performing 'Heroes', seeing as it has been one of the themes of the games. I thought that montage was leading up to an appearance by the main himself... so no. That fashion bit was just strange.

Don't really understand the point of the Bowie montage.

If he appears and does Starman as well as heroes... best closing ceremony ever then.

Queen will be on later, with freddie mercury!! (Hologram)

Russel Brand is the best so far.

Thanks for the spoiler, BTID.

Quite like the psychedelia with Russell Brand.

No worries, I aim to please

Spice Girls are still shit, funny to see them bricking it on top of those black cabs though.

Muse on now. Terrible.

victoria beckham looked fantastic, don't think anyone can deny that.

I don't see why they couldn't have had a major Muse track.

Loving this Queen bit now though.

Undecided on Eric Idle.
