OMG! So happy to have come across this amazing song! This tune had remained etched in my memory as a kid in the 80’s. Thankfully, just a few minutes into episode 1 of the Kdrama ‘Reply 1988’ on Netflix I came across a brief rendition of this song! I knew it had to do with the Olympics cos of the iconic torch! Omo, straight to google and the rest is history! Oh what memories!!!!!! There is this other song I am looking for in a kiddies Programme where kids showcase their country’s culture….. children of the world.
Bilang filipino at pinanganak sa taong 1981 ito yong kanta na nagpaalala sa akn noon na ang ganda ng buhay at sana itong kantang to yong maging theme song ng bawat olympics event ang ganda kasi ng tema sakto eh hand in hand ibig sabihin pagkakaisa
Pero mira quien es el compositor. Estando Giorgio Moroder no podía ser distinto. Entre otros grandes éxitos fue compositor y productor del himno de Italia 90 y tiene muchas canciones de películas clásicas de los 80 como Take my breath away del grupo Berlin para la película Top Gun, Together in electric dream junto a Phillip Oakey de the Human league, los soundtrack completos de películas como De aquí a la eternidad y El expreso de medianoche y muchos éxitos de la Reina de la Onda Disco, la gran Donna Summer entre otros artistas con los que colaboró. Un genio musical este italiano. Sólo agradecimiento por toda la bella música que nos regalaste Giorgio Moroder.
Y me faltó agregar What a feeling con Irene Cara de la película Flash Flashdance y el tema principal de la película Never Ending Story con el grupo Limalh. Giorgio ruled inthe 80s
Listening to this song again, after so many years... I don't think most realize just how much we need this kind of compassion in our world right now. Unity, standing together, work for a better future for all of mankind. Not wars. Not genocide. Instead of that, we need compassion. We need... love. This song, is written and designed to bring out the best of us, despite our differences be it cultures, religions, whatever. And we need this now, more than ever.
My memory of that Olympic song is this. I remember that there was a broadcast of the start of the Olympics in Seoul at 4 am, and it was broadcast live by Polish Television in Program One. And as soon as I heard the song, I liked it right away. And I think it's the best Olympic song of recent years, counting from 1988 to now...
@Jakub Klatka Miałam 14 lat i biegłam ze szkoły by oglądać olimpiadę. Pamiętam cykl "Nasi w Seulu" gdzie pokazywano medalistów. Komentował Włodzimierz Szaranowicz.
The same thing happened to me, I will never forget this beautiful song, it is the best song that has been written for an Olympic Games in all of history.
Puxa vida!!! Bons tempos que infelizmente não voltam mais 😢 só quem viveu pode se sentir privilegiado em curtir essa linda música 👋 infelizmente não conheço ninguém aqui mas só do fato de estar aqui ouvindo já são meus amigos do peito 🤗.... alguém comiguuuuuu!!!??

Un genio musical este italiano fallecido en 2022
I remember this song when i only 8years … and it helped all my soul my whole life whenever what ever … 내가 어디있든 무엇을 하든 잊지 않울 것입니다. 이렇게 나를 눈물 나게 하는 곡이 있을까요?
파리올림픽 개회식 전부 다 합쳐도 서울올림픽 주제가 하나로 다 발림! 서울올림픽 개회식은 그냥 이 주제곡 하나로도 왠만한 개회식 퀄러티는 넘김. 왜냐 하면 다른 올림픽 개막식은 자국의 콘텐츠로 알리기가 중심이면 서울올림픽은 그냥 그걸 넘어 냉전이란 시대를 완전히 종식시키는 메세지를 담았음. 역대 올림픽 개회식에 그정도의 중량감 있는 메세지를 담은 개막식은 아직 못봤음. 물론 퀄러티는 런던을 치지만 그건 어디까지나 영국의 찬란한 문화를 내 세운거고
I was only 4 years old then, but i remember this Song as well, because my dad bought this Single and listened often. And more actual than ever....see Ukraine and Russia, Israel and palastina
This wonderful song from most wonderful olympic games in South Korea 1988. Greatings from Poland. Thank you for touching my heart deeper and deeper. Agnes (in 1988 i was 14 years old)
공연말고 뮤직비디오는, 코리아나에 관심이 많아지고 나서 처음보는거 같네요. 그 당시 대한민국의 실제 장면들과 열심히 경기하는 선수들의 모습들이 나오는게 참 좋고, 코리아나 멤버들의 노래, 연주 모습도 번갈아 나오면서 코리아나의 존재감도 또한 같이 느끼게 됩니다. 공식음반에 있는 녹음과 다른 연주 , 노래 버전이네요. 거의 비슷하다가 막판에 전기기타 솔로가 길게 추가된게 가장 다르게 들립니다. 공식음반이 워낙 완벽에 가까웠고 공식음반이 저는 더 좋습니다만, 이렇게 다른 버전도 있었다는것도 색다른 맛을 줍니다. 영상 올려주셔서 감사합니다.
Sin lugar a dudas,este tema es por lejos el mejor himno de una celebración tan majestuosa como fueron los juegos olímpicos de Seul 88,me emociona volver a escuchar esta tremenda banda interpretando esta verdadera obra de arte.
