Closing ceremonies, what did you think?

Overall, what did you love most about the Olympics this year? And specifically, did you enjoy the closing ceremonies? Why or why not?

There was so much to love about the olympics, but personally (this will sound sadistic) I loved seeing the athletes cry at the end of events, it showed me how much it meant to them. Alan Campbell breaking down after winning a bronze medal will remain in my memory for the rest of my life, as will the reactions of people like jessica ennis or sir chris hoy.

Although british, I found a lot of the closing ceremonies to be rather bizaare, although there were some standout moments, i.e. john lennon and freddie mercury. On the other hand, jessie j singing we will rock you has ruined the song for me, and russell brand should not have been allowed near the closing ceremony.

The Spice Girls ruined it for me.
