開(kāi)幕前被列為“終極懸念”之一的北京奧運(yùn)會(huì)主題歌，果然以出人預(yù)料并且超乎想像的主題和旋律，給全世界帶來(lái)驚喜，帶來(lái)感動(dòng)。
沒(méi)有氣壯山河，沒(méi)有縱橫捭闔，《我和你》（You And Me），閃耀著人性與情義的光華，以舒緩而溫情的方式，讓億萬(wàn)觀眾如沐月光清風(fēng)，在天籟之音中感受“地球村”的和諧之美。
《我和你》，北京奧運(yùn)會(huì)這首總共12句歌詞的主題歌，傳遞著和諧世界的人本理念，體現(xiàn)了別具匠心的創(chuàng)作風(fēng)格，加上世界巨星的完美演繹和簡(jiǎn)單易唱的詞曲節(jié)奏，能否成為奧運(yùn)主題歌中又一首風(fēng)格迥異卻仍傳唱不衰的經(jīng)典？

Cheers from the 90,000-strong crowd reverberated through the National Stadium, when Chinese vocalist Liu Huan and British songstress Sarah Brightman presented the theme song for the night, You and Me, at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics last night.
Flashlights and countless camera flashes offered the backdrop to a towering globe on which Liu and Brightman sang their duet, written and composed by France-based Chinese songwriter Chen Qigang.

"Being up there was one of the biggest thrills in my life," Brightman said.
She also performed the theme Amigos para Siempre at the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games with Spanish tenor Jose Carreras.
The 48-year-old soprano, actress, songwriter and dancer wowed Chinese audiences in a concert in Beijing on May 30, 2004, at the Capital Gymnasium.
Brightman has also toured other cities in China, such as Shanghai and Guangzhou.
She gained fame through performances in hit musicals such as Andrew Lloyd Weber's Cats and The Phantom of the Opera.
Her style of blending classical vocals and pop-inspired instrumentation and arrangement has earned her 150 gold and platinum awards in 34 countries.
Similarly, Liu Huan is one of the most popular singers in China.
As composer of the One World, One Dream Olympic song, and one of the country's best known musicians, the stocky 45-year-old Tianjin native majored in French and is a self-taught singer-songwriter.
Liu first became known for composing music for Chinese TV dramas, including the TV series Beijingers in New York, a huge hit in the early 1990s.
