great feeling to feel like one world. as the astronaut from the Space station said, its one planet we all call our home. All the best Glasgow for hosting wonderful and memorable games. Good work with Unicef.

Wow! I just love the unity. This is what we called humanity celebrations with zero racial limitations. We are humans, we can settle our differences, and together we do things better.

Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond performed by the magnificent Nicola Benedetti and the Big Noise Orchestra at 2:06:44 -- 2:12:46 is played so beautifully. I have never heard it played as lovely as this  As the presenter said, , " This song could make the strongest of Scots weep like a baby all the more so when it played as beautifully as this." She was playing an original Stradivarius 1717 violin on loan for this night of this special occasion, the opening ceremony of the XX Commonwealth Games in Glasgow Absolutely magnificent don't know if someone can do a single of this music by
