Duration: 6:50

Theme song for the 100-day countdown celebration of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, music by Xiao Ke and original lyrics by Lam Jik (Hong Kong). The melody of the song was inspired by a local Beijing ballad called "Shui Niu", which are snails that come out on rainy days. Children in Beijing like to sing songs to attract these little creatures to come out of their shells. For those of you wondering where's Andy Lau, he has his own Olympic song: "Everbody Is No.1" For those of you wondering where's Jay Chou, he has his own Olympic song: "千山万水" For those of you wondering where's S.H.E, Jacky Cheung and Wilber Pan, they have their own Olympic song: "红遍全球" Lyrics: Chen Tianjia: Welcoming another dawn, bringing fresh new air Liu Huan: The air changes, but sentiment still scents of fragrant tea Na Ying: The doors of my home open wide, awaiting you with open arms Stefanie Sun (Singapore): After an embrace there will be understanding, you will love this place Sun Yue: From far or near you're all our guests, please don't be shy Wang Leehom (Taiwan): We've promised to get together, we welcome you Han Hong: We've planted evergreens, blooming every legend Chau Wakin (Hong Kong): We've sown the ancient earth, for memories to be cherished Gigi Leung (Hong Kong): Strangers or friends you're all our guests, please be at home Yuquan: No matter how many times you've been here, we've much to talk about Jackie Chan (Hong Kong): Beijing welcomes you We've opened our world for you Richie Ren (Taiwan): Its charming tides of change teems with life Jolin Tsai (Taiwan): Beijing welcomes you Sharing a breath beneath the sun Sun Nan: Setting new records upon the yellow earth Zhou Bichang: The doors of my home open wide, embracing the heavens and the earth Wei Wei: History flashes a youthful smile, welcoming this day Huang Xiaoming: The whole world is our friend, please don't be shy Han Geng: Pictures and poems painted with smiles, all to await you Wang Feng: Beijing welcomes you Moving you like music Karen Mok (Hong Kong): Let's all try our best to excel ourselves Tan Jing: Beijing welcomes you With dreams, anyone's a winner Eason Chan (Hong Kong): With courage there will be miracles Yan Weiwen: Beijing welcomes you We've opened our world for you Dai Yuqiang: Its charming tides of change teems with life Wang Xia, Li Shuangsong: Beijing welcomes you Sharing a breath beneath the sun Liao Changyong: Setting new records upon the yellow earth Lin Yilun: Beijing welcomes you Moving you like music Jang Nara (Korea): Let's all try our best to excel ourselves JJ Lin (Singapore), Ah Du (Singapore): Beijing welcomes you With dreams, anyone's a winner With courage there will be miracles Beijing opera: Beijing welcomes you Joey Yung (Hong Kong): The doors of my home open wide, awaiting you with open arms Li Yuchun: After an embrace there will be understanding, you will love this place David Wong (Hong Kong): From far or near you're all our guests, please don't be shy Chen Kun: We've promised to get together, we welcome you Nicholas Tse (Hong Kong): Beijing welcomes you We've opened our world for you Han Lei: Its charming tides of change teems with life Vivian Hsu (Taiwan): Beijing welcomes you Sharing a breath beneath the sun Fei Xiang (Taiwan): Setting new records upon the yellow earth Tang Can: The doors of my home open wide, embracing the heavens and the earth Lin Chi-ling (Taiwan), Zhang Zilin: History flashes a youthful smile, welcoming this day Jane Zhang: The whole world is our friend, please don't be shy Valen Hsu (Taiwan), Sky Wu (Taiwan): Pictures and poems painted with smiles, all to await you Yang Kun, FanFan (Taiwan): Beijing welcomes you Moving you like music Yu Hungming (Taiwan), Zhou Xiao'ou: Let's all try our best to excel ourselves Sha Baoliang, Man Wenjun: Beijing welcomes you With dreams, anyone's a winner Peter Ho (Taiwan), Jin Haixin: With courage there will be miracles F.I.R.

Dec 1, 2008 - I know.. she's really hot..

sakahari Says:

Dec 1, 2008 - yes. thats right and while you are in beijing. pay a visit to nepal on your way back home.

chopstyx1 Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - and while you're in the states pay a visit to Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam.....

indianian1195 Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - AWW Jackie Chan :[ I can't believe he retired. Now hes doing Chinese movies only

ChipProcessor32 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - @sakahari: "..pay a visit to nepal on your way back." Nepal is a country located between India and China, so I would pay a visit if I was heading back to India....what is your point again??

ChipProcessor32 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - @SixofCups: Fuck you you fucking Jap. And you should stop pretending the Japs endured any suffering during the atomic bombings....cuz I'm sure it caused more good than harm. How bout China drops another nuke on you pussies?

misterflip20 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - i dont mind the war going on now because its caused by more recent causes and diputes...however, it is stupid to bring up something we settled 40 to 60 years ago. You werent even fighting in those wars. Let it go as i have, im a filipino and my grandfather's brother was sent to a prison camp and died there in 1942. My grandfather spent 3 miserable years in a japanese occupied school. Dont take it out a japanese guy for something his ancestors did because he cant help it....Moron...

ChipProcessor32 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - @misterflip: Historical grievances are important because if you've ever taken a history class, you'd know that events in history set precedents for building the future. Historical precendents shape government infrastructure and national policy. Ex: US policy in Afghan is probably based heavily on past case studies involving Soviet occupied Afghanistan. To simply disregard history because it "happend in the past" is extremely erroneous. If Germany never learned from its WWII errors...

ChipProcessor32 Says:

Dec 3, 2008 - ...then another group of tyrannical fascists would again take control of the country. The problem with the Japs is they practice historical amnesia. This is actually more dangerous for them, than for China, simply due to China's clout and power in todays world. I'll refrain from calling you a "moron" because hurling invectives only discredits you, as you have done to yourself. Btw, I could care less what your background is. Good for you. Next time bring a contention, not a personal story.

Rehlyk Says:

Dec 4, 2008 - More good than harm? The hell is wrong with you? I see no logic in what you say, you racist bastard. How about they drop a nuke on America, and surely WE won't suffer. N'aww.

misterflip20 Says:

Dec 4, 2008 - its funny...you can predict the next eruption of a volcano based on two things: the history of the volcano and passed eruptions and the activity that suggest that it will erupt again...much like you said that, whatever happened in the past will better tell our future. that statement my friend is BULLSHIT....much like the volcano, if the japanese were to attack the philippines again based on what happened 50 + years ago, they sure arent showing any signs of it.

misterflip20 Says:

Dec 4, 2008 - ...we live in the present sir and we have established peace between most countries despite the few prejudicial bastards like yourself. Now, i enjoy reading your replies chuck full of large vocabulary just to make me think you are quite prfessional. you are talking to a 9th grader and this comes all to me as smart looking worded vomit.

ChipProcessor32 Says:

Dec 4, 2008 - misterflip: You're just beginning your high school career, and I'm sure you'll learn a lot through the 4 years. Since you're a student, and I've been there before, I would suggest you not puff up your chest and try to argue with adults all the time. Absorb information like a sponge. Close YouTube and open a history book. And my word usage really isn't "fancy" in any way. You'll learn that eventually. Good day. (I guess your age would explain the "moron" comment as well....)

misterflip20 Says:

Dec 4, 2008 - yea yea...last time i checked, expressing opinions isnt a form of debate unless inforced against somebody else's opinion. Another thing, i use Youtube to listen to music while im studying my history book. thanks for your time, and yes, i do need to expand my vocabulary. yes, my age does explain the moron comment, but your offence against the japanese was prejudicial and moronic. good day

Dec 4, 2008 - i want this so badd on my ipod ='( i heard it when it was 1st made and even now i love this song.. nothing will be able to beat the beijing olympics

chopstyx1 Says:

Dec 4, 2008 - Just to be sure, age is not a sign of intelligence, usually just a stubborn inability to accept opinions or ideas that are different to their own.

partyboylacrosseb520 Says:

Dec 5, 2008 - After watching this I felt invigorated and full of energy, great song!

chopstyx1 Says:

Dec 5, 2008 - This song is brilliant, I can't stop playing it. I don't need to put it onto ipod, because I just can't get it out of my head anyway.

skelepri Says:

Dec 5, 2008 - wow dats sad. and agree with kuro. im proud to be Chinese i didnt say that because i wasn't. So back off

iluvcelinaagain Says:

Dec 5, 2008 - I love this song <33 the beijing olympic rocked :3

zebazebra Says:

Dec 5, 2008 - shut up and listen to the song. why the hell are you arguing here? if you really feel so strongly about whatever the hell you are on about, tell someone who cares.

ChipProcessor32 Says:

Dec 5, 2008 - If you care so much then go fucking pm that guy.
