KD Lang's one of the best vocalists to come out of Canada, but what does this song have to do with the Olympics? And why did they slow down the momentum by placing it after the declaration of opening the Games?

They are playing the "You gotta be here BC commercial." Why would you want to after seeing that? I think Michael J Fox may light the flame. 8:39 pm

Lets watch it again on NBC! and Betty Fox isn't lighting the torch



*edit* can she light it ?? That would be soo boring if she lit it, I mean she can't even do a crazy jump, or fly up or spin or leap or bound or anything!
