Of all the artists that could be representing France, I’m so glad it’s you

[@chloegrgm]

Yeah, Dj Snake or David Guetta would have been good too👌 but I love Woodkid rythm🔥🔥🔥

[@redlizerad8268]

@@chloegrgm I wish it was Daft Punk but too bad they retired

[@Desugan69]

@@redlizerad8268 who knows they where always some kind of goofballs and i wouldn't be 100% surprised if they would come together for something that big like the mf olympic/Paralympic games

[@DisturbedBerlin]

Me too and I‘m from Germany haha ❤️😍👍🏼

[@Bone_Chaser]

As am I

[@Azelnoo]

I'm sad they didn't play this during the opening ceremony ! So I came back here to listen to it again !

[@TheCinebezerra]

Much Better 😂 Was the most horrible Openning Ever

[@peepe4649]

Same, but i still hope he'll be there for the paralympics opening

[@ryanpajarotravel]

I hope they play this in Closing Ceremony

[@GoodKingMort]

If Run Boy Run doesn't play during the 100m sprint, I'm going to be bitterly disappointed.

[@radheymishra6089]

Thats a good song

[@radheymishra6089]

lol image if they played that when its paralympics No offense

[@antoineleblanc9765]

maybe bot during, but given that the ending of this "prologue" features the exact same percussion and rythmic pattern as RBR.... 'twould truly be a shame if at least the instrumental isn't featured during the opening ceremony !

[@brittat.5420]

🤣😂🤣👍

[@-wandis]

Same lol !

[@GeryCrazy]

Am I crying of emotion?? Yes. Is this a masterpiece? No doubt Am I honored to live the same time as Woodkid? Absolutely Thank you for your ART!

[@thatch6119]

If the Olympians would have composed a music at their time, it should be this! This track is epic, stressful, proud, gigantic, like the games! This is awesome

[@javill532]

You're goddamn right

[@rheagalsim7497]

Yesss

[@leknu146]

Comme c'est bien exprimé...bravo monsieur ou madame.

[@Bruno_Kaz]

Every song you made, it makes me feel alive.

[@boyden1987]

It's almost like there is a heartbeat running in the back of every piece he creates

[@tylertruthseeker4034]

3:38 is Run Boy Run and in the background you can hear the strings of I Love You. You can also hear run boy run again at 5:38 thats such a cool easter egg.

[@margotiris9310]

hey guys, in so glad this got released! i waited for so long, i actually am one of the singers that participated to this piece, i work with the Maîtrise de Radio France in Paris and i have been delighted to work with woodkid! my best wishes for you all ❤️

As the minute 3:38 hit, I got chilll!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!! I don’t know what to say anymore. I can’t believe this man have no Grammy at all. But it doesn’t matter. He hold the trophy by himself that no one has.

[@alicewong5619]

Greetings from HK. I am now watching the closing of Tokyo Olympic games. While following the opening for Paris Olympic Games 2024, I listened carefully and got the goosebumps with he rhythmic of this music form and thought must be the pattern from Woodkid. And KZbin searching right away. I am so excited to hear your new spiritual music for Paris Olympic Games 2024 ! You’re the brilliant artist of France!

[@amustychickn]

HOLLOW KNIGHT!

[@DREAMINDIGO]

Listening to this song right now on TV. I immediately recognised Woodkid. Your music is the best!!!

[@giuliapiras1256]

Same!!

[@AhmadFauzi-mw4gq]

Totally right!!! This is very Woodkid production

[@DREAMINDIGO]

@@AhmadFauzi-mw4gq exactly!! :D

[@shellatkin]

I knew it too!

[@animewarrior9303]

I heard it too.

[@ChiragSonne]

This is going to be Paris 2024 Olympics Official Anthem for walkout and even for athletes!

[@duikenchewbroccoli1205]

Absolutely epic music. Can't wait to attend these Olympics 😍

[@stephengiese7549]

I am not familiar with woodkid. This is the most stirring music I have heard in a long time. Perfect intro to the 2024 games. You should be pumped up after listening to it. I am. Thanks woodkid and utube m.

[@rootyful]

If you like this piece, I strongly suggest checking out the album 'Woodkid for Nicolas Ghesquière - Louis Vuitton Works One', another largely instrumental work. Woodkid usually does more lyrics-focused pieces (which are also incredible, though, and I recomment listening to all his works).

[@dbloodymoon]

Since 2011 I follow your work, since your song was put on the best Assassin's Creed trailer ever made, and I became a fan! Congratulations for being chosen as the songwriter for Paris-2024, and I'm looking forward to see all pieces you've made for it! Cheers from Brazil!

[@leonardokluck6103]

Amo ver brasileiro por aqui ^=^

[@revisor230]

Same 😍❤

[@chraps1]

The same. Iron was first music. Now i'm really in

[@imperatorshekwolo2750]

Most of us become fans because of Assassin's Creed brotherhood. Iron kills be till today.

[@rzha9786]

I cried over this song out of nowhere. It just has the power of bringing up your emotions and giving you wide imagination. What a great great song. Love from China and Australia.

[@Kerchock]

I heard this during the Tokyo 2020 closing ceremony. It stuck me as being very, very beautful music. I Shazam'ed it, but I already had this feeling that this was Woodkid's work. This means Woodkid has made his own style. Amazing!

[@JohnJohn-wi1nt]

I mean... Woodkid for the Olympic and Paralympic? merci beaucoup 🔥

[@KrisMine-vt8tl]

It's good to have a translator! I want to know what people say in other languages.

[@KrisMine-vt8tl]

I was born in a city and a country where they speak Russian

[@meshbeck4846]

I can't wait till this tune will be played for the opening ceremony and the whole olympic games of 2024 will feel like a futuristic fiction movie

[@honeylawless]

Just watched and so happy to hear it

[@whaleborne1308]

we're so close to this masterpiece being broadcast around the world. I cannot wait

[@norseca542]

they swapped it for a jurassic park theme ripoff, what a snub

[@Skynet6009]

This, THIS awesomeness stole the show at the closing ceremony. The moment I heard those beats I knew it was woodkid. Screaming and telling my wife "I hear run boy run in here & I'm thrilled"

[@hirokofukunaga8491]

I first heard your music at the closing ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics. So cool!

[@DexM47]

On dirait un hymne à la mythologie grecque ou aux jeux olympiques de la Grèce antique, ça colle merveilleusement bien

[@gaelworld]

Carrément. Tres antique.

[@andreargt8157]

Grave ! J'adore. Woodkid est vraiment talentueux, il a magnifiquement illustré le courage, la puissance, l'effort, le dépassement de soi et la victoire dans son œuvre. C'est une musique qui donne la niac.

[@leknu146]

Et les enfants qui scandent le thème sont les petits bohémiens de Notre Dame de Paris, le roman de Victor Hugo. Depuis l'Olympe, voilà comment les dieux voient le monde des humains.

[@saraj0922]

I got goosebumps when I heard this at the closing ceremony. I am waiting for Paris 2024 with emotion, greetings from Colombia.

[@edward___]

It seems that this music expresses the overall mood of the Paris Olympics well and has seen a preview. Very looking forward to it. It fits very well with the challenging spirit of the Olympics. It blends well with the sophisticated atmosphere of France, so it is different from the traditional feeling of Tokyo.

[@dez-m]

It always feels like a historical moment when you bless the internet with your art... Oh my goodness...

[@Anthony70099]

Welcome 2024, year of Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games!.

[@josephguimard548]

i am so honored that woodkid gets to make the olympic games music for my country

[@bibianaguadalupeislasherre9880]

Fun fact: Romanian rhythmic gymnast Amalia Lica used a short version of this theme for her hoop routine in some rhythmic gymnastics competitions.

[@rovinglycan]

Love the blend of traditional classical sounds into something modern, tribal, and so charged with energy. I heart this hard. Well done woodkid.

[@jordivilaioliveras]

Yes! We can feel the power. Just great!

[@rheagalsim7497]

This will be a new “classic”. Beautiful, emotional and hopeful song.

[@stevel9627]

This was amazingly well used during the closing ceremony. Really gives that changing of a guard feel that the Olympics is now aiming for with the newer generation of sports & stars coming through

[@leknu146]

"L'esprit olympique est lié aux valeurs et aux idéaux de l'Olympisme. La dimension spirituelle des Jeux avait été soulignée à l'origine par le baron Pierre de Coubertin et sur cette dimension se sont fondées les valeurs olympiques qui constituent la pierre angulaire de l'éducation olympique et sportive." ...la dimension spirituelle des Jeux !
