"Rocky" -- also inevitable, but less great to hear.

And it gets worse with "Chariots of Fire".

for shame!  Vangelis rules.

Not *that* song! I've never been able to stomach it.

So far, I am happy to say this set has far exceeded my expectations.

OK, clever segue from US Gymnasts to "New Gold Dream" but the song is a too-frequent-flyer.

Ditto. I was expecting a lot of "One Moment in Time" kinda crap. or "Man in Motion" (which may yet appear, I suppose).

Haha, that's almost as predictable as FP saying that the set blows.

uber LN, Queen.  Honestly, I would rather hear "Killer Queen" than "We Will Rock You\We Are the Champions".  This is true of almost any song played at football games.  I never need to here "Hells Bells" ever again, for instance.
