From his first notes, we recognize him. Instantly. At the start of events, in the metro, on TV, at medal ceremonies… For weeks, the official anthem of the Paris Olympics, Paradeaccompanied each sporting performance. May it be impressive like the medals won by gymnast Simon Biles. Poignant like the failure of Japanese judo champion Uta Abe. Or funny like the kangaroo dance of the Australian Raygun in breakdancing. Today, the galvanizing song divides its listeners into two teams: those who overdose and those who want more.
Good news for the latter: the anthem composed by Victor Le Masne with the musical groups of Radio France has been available since Friday, September 13 on streaming platforms, as announced West France upstream. Spotify, iTunes, Deezer and Apple Music are affected. Speaking to the local newspaper, Thierry Reboul, the director of the Paris 2024 ceremonies, specifies that an official launch will be made on Saturday, during the athletes’ party which should bring together 70,000 spectators. Furthermore, if for the moment two versions of Parade are accessible (one of 5 minutes… and one of 11), he specifies that the album is planned “for the future”. In which other flagship titles of the event could well appear, such as Synchronicity or Higher.
College ringtone in JO mode
Yet another way for nostalgic fans to continue to bring the spirit of the games to life. Like the controversial decision to let the Olympic rings adorn the Eiffel Tower. Or the choice of the Jean-Macé college in Villeurbanne, in the metropolis of Lyon. Throughout the month of September, the establishment’s approximately 580 students will change classes with a new ringtone, repeating seven seconds of the Olympic hit, as reported News Lyon. In addition, upon consultation with college students, two homes should also be renamed in the names of a male and female athlete as well as a para-athlete. Enough to continue to fuel the flame for the event, even after its close.
