I can't remember any closing ceremony having anything to do with sport....they've all just been random mixes of music and performing themed on that country

Considering some of the cnuts that have been involved so far it wouldn't surprise me if Ian Huntley got out of the bus

Now this is good............

Dead Man Walking

stabbing time

Scráib

Russell Brand... minus ten points

This would be better if they did the following:
-Zoomed in on the attractive female athletes. Where's the Venuzuelan who posed for sports illustrated?
-Stopped putting people famous for their drug abuse up on stage. I mean that's ironic in a bad way considering it's the Olympics.

According to the BBC announcer, Annie Lennox's performance had a Bram/Stoker Dracula theme to it. So if they are trying to celebrate all thing London/British in the show, they are way off the mark trying to "steal" him from us imo.

That's a giant leap there proudDUB. You should've gone in for the triple jump! It's merely a song from the film Dracula. Written by a British artist.

Rokafella skank! Wait for the drop

Maybe it's time to start a new trend so. Note to Brazilian committee - make it a display of victory, triumph over adversity etc
