This Olympics meant so much to us Americans. In the shadow of 9/11, this was our moment to focus on something else for a change. This performance encapsulated everything we needed to hear in order to start new.
Such a lovely song and Leann sings it beautifully with so much emotion.. This song never received the recognition it should have gotten. An inspirational song for children.
I remember watching the opening ceremony of salt lake 2002 when they play this song basically I was so overcome by emotion that I cried but a very beautiful song Beautiful ceremony
lyrics LeAnn Rimes - Light The Fire Within Have no fear When darkness falls 'Cause there's a light that shines Within us all Although this world Can turn so cold When we reach inside We find our warmth 'Cause there's a flame that burns In every heart And it's the will we have That lights the spark Once in every lifetime There's a chance to stand apart We can show the world Our very best Reveal what's in our heart So the story goes and glory Never will end Inspiration lights the fire within And if we fall We won't stay down We will get back up And use the strength we've found And we will rise Like champions Every obstacle We'll overcome And if we just stay strong Then our hearts will move us on Each heart there burns desire Inspiration lights the fire within
In 2002 after seeing this Opening Ceremony (I was 20), I remember promising myself that if the Olympics ever returned to the US in my lifetime, I'd go to it. Now we're getting 2 and even though I'll be in my 50s, I will without a doubt be going to Salt Lake in 2034. What's even more interesting (to me) is that this actually parallels what happened in 1996 and 2002, it'll be 6 years between LA 2028 and Salt Lake in 2034 lol. I do hope to go to LA also, but if I had to pick between the 2, I'd pick the Winter Olympics since I tend to enjoy them a bit more lol.
PT - BR LeAnn Rimes - Acenda o Fogo Interno Não tenha medo Quando a escuridão cair Pois ha uma luz que brilha Dentro de todos nós Apesar desse mundo Se tornar tão frio Quando alcançamos la no fundo Encontramos nosso calor Porque ha uma chama que queima Em cada coração E é a vontade que temos Que acende a faísca Uma vez em cada vida Ha um chance de ficar distante Nós podemos mostrar ao mundo O nosso melhor Revelar o que esta em nosso coração Então a historia continua e a gloria Nunca vai acabar A inspiração acende o fogo interno E se caímos Não vamos ficar la embaixo Vamos nos levantar E usar a força que encontramos E vamos nos levantar Como campeões Cada obstaculo Vamos superar E se ficarmos fortes Então nossos corações vão nos mover Cada coração queima com desejo A inspiração acende o fogo interno
Both Mariah Carey and Bonnie Tyler became LeAnn Rimes' idols because I wonder the song was composed by both Jim Steinman and Walter Afanasieff and Rimes influenced and combined the vocals of rockable Tyler and soulful Carey and I wonder she sang both Total Eclipse of the Heart and Hero.
I would like to see Salt Lake host the winter Olympics again in 2030 because I didn't get to see it because I was born in near the ending of Salt Lake City 2002.
It was simply a group of local youngsters. My sister was along them. No particular training or organization other than growing up Mormon and singing a lot at church etc. Now if you’re referring to the choir of adults, that was the Mormon tabernacle choir.
World wide sporting event held every four years.. Usually in different countries..There are both a summer and winter version.. The summer ones will be held next year in Tokyo Japan..The 2028 summer games will be held in Los Angeles California!!..

Vanessa Amorosi, Tina Arena and Christine Anu at Sydney 2000.
Stevie Wonder, I said!
Hi Jade, we published Stevie Wonder singing Imagine at Atlanta 1996: ruclips.net/video/FJzYkmNqhls/видео.html
Leann Rimes singing 'Light the Fire Within' is my favorite Ollympic performance. No one will ever match it.
KD Lang singing Hallelujah at Vancouver. Yes, Olympic, I know you already posted it and I listen to it every single day.

I'm really happy Los Angeles gets to host the 2028 games...
Yes this and Atlanta are my favorites despite what was going on the entire country could still come together as one and put on a remarkable games
This was one of the most beautiful Olympic songs I remember watching this live! And it’s a hard song too. Awww Leane is so good
I told Rimes about this she was shocked I remembered! I promise to keep her a blessing to All! 🎉
Such a lovely song and Leann sings it beautifully with so much emotion.. This song never received the recognition it should have gotten. An inspirational song for children.
As a local child I can tell you we knew it well and most of us performed it at our respective schools.
This has always been my fav. Leann is absolutely incredible and flawless. This song is great too. ❤
Children and other youth are the hope of the world….the rising generation…..this is YOUR time!! Your time to make things better…..you can do it!!
Out of all the Olympic themes I've heard (and believe me I heard quite a few of them) this is my favorite.
I remember watching the opening ceremony of salt lake 2002 when they play this song basically I was so overcome by emotion that I cried but a very beautiful song Beautiful ceremony
I enjoyed these olympics in 2002 and I remember this one. Would also claim this song is the best olympic song, this far / Sweden
Totally agree. Wonderful melody, inspiring lyrics and totally stunning vocals.
This, Reach and Power of the Dream
lyrics
LeAnn Rimes - Light The Fire Within
Have no fear
When darkness falls
'Cause there's a light that shines
Within us all
Although this world
Can turn so cold
When we reach inside
We find our warmth
'Cause there's a flame that burns
In every heart
And it's the will we have
That lights the spark
Once in every lifetime
There's a chance to stand apart
We can show the world
Our very best
Reveal what's in our heart
So the story goes and glory
Never will end
Inspiration lights the fire within
And if we fall
We won't stay down
We will get back up
And use the strength we've found
And we will rise
Like champions
Every obstacle
We'll overcome
And if we just stay strong
Then our hearts will move us on
Each heart there burns desire
Inspiration lights the fire within
This is my favorite song because it truly inspires me to do the best i can. A great song for young people. She sings it beautifully.
The Most Bestest Winter Olympic Song !
And we will rise!!!
2:42 and 3:39 LeAnn's amazing vocals!
20 years 🔥
Beautiful. The most mismanaged career ever, she could have been a superstar.
She truly has been mismanaged, she is so very talented.
@@nataliewoods868 Indeed
agree completely
Over 40 million albums sold still. So not too shabby
I concur.This is the most beautiful voice ever.I listen to this almost every day.
This and Atlanta still give me goosebumps
I danced sorta ballet to this song when I was in a mental hospital. The behavior specialist LOVED this song!
Cool!!
That is very special…
I love this song. Most beautiful.
1988 Hand in hand(english version) Also a great song symbolizing the changes that were happening in South Korea and East Europe at that time.
A song for our time.
Who's here after Salt Lake City was named the winter Olympics host in 2034
In 2002 after seeing this Opening Ceremony (I was 20), I remember promising myself that if the Olympics ever returned to the US in my lifetime, I'd go to it. Now we're getting 2 and even though I'll be in my 50s, I will without a doubt be going to Salt Lake in 2034.

I do hope to go to LA also, but if I had to pick between the 2, I'd pick the Winter Olympics since I tend to enjoy them a bit more lol.
oh my~she's so good!
Mega Talent right here!!!!
This song touches my heart 💖

LeAnn Rimes - Acenda o Fogo Interno
Não tenha medo
Quando a escuridão cair
Pois ha uma luz que brilha
Dentro de todos nós
Apesar desse mundo
Se tornar tão frio
Quando alcançamos la no fundo
Encontramos nosso calor
Porque ha uma chama que queima
Em cada coração
E é a vontade que temos
Que acende a faísca
Uma vez em cada vida
Ha um chance de ficar distante
Nós podemos mostrar ao mundo
O nosso melhor
Revelar o que esta em nosso coração
Então a historia continua e a gloria
Nunca vai acabar
A inspiração acende o fogo interno
E se caímos
Não vamos ficar la embaixo
Vamos nos levantar
E usar a força que encontramos
E vamos nos levantar
Como campeões
Cada obstaculo
Vamos superar
E se ficarmos fortes
Então nossos corações vão nos mover
Cada coração queima com desejo
A inspiração acende o fogo interno

And they could hold the games again go SLC 2030
Now I see why she became the SUN on THE MASKED SINGER USA
I would like to see Salt Lake host the winter Olympics again in 2030 because I didn't get to see it because I was born in near the ending of Salt Lake City 2002.
I hope we do too!!
wow.................!!!!
just Amazing

Nice job, Utah and Mitt Romney.
Linda Thompson wrote it
Hey posted the Christina Aguilera performance in Salt Lake 2002. 😇
uuuu she wasnt part of either ceremony AFAIK.. I know we had various stars at the Medal Stage downtown but I dont remember hER.
SLC 2034 HERE WE FREAKING GOOOOOOOOOO
Linda, belíssima
Such a great song and performance ..... at one of the most corrupt olympic games in modern history.
Who is here because of the elementary school program?
Among other reasons, yes. Haha
I showed this song to my grandma, and she LOVED this song. And she HATES country music.
What do you mean
Country music?
This is not country 🤣
I said country music because LeAnn Rimes is technically a country music singer. And my grandma hates country
LeAnn Rimes combined the vocals of Mariah Carey and Bonnie Tyler.
2002
😲
I would love to know what the name of the choir?
It was simply a group of local youngsters. My sister was along them. No particular training or organization other than growing up Mormon and singing a lot at church etc.
Now if you’re referring to the choir of adults, that was the Mormon tabernacle choir.
China ❤
I luf it....
call me Captain Obvious but this was 17 years ago
19 🤡
Still remember! This song was impactful.
22 now
Esa no es la novia de german garmendia el chileno ? Jajajaja
Knowledge of olympic games please
World wide sporting event held every four years.. Usually in different countries..There are both a summer and winter version.. The summer ones will be held next year in Tokyo Japan..The 2028 summer games will be held in Los Angeles California!!..
I guess LeAnn Rimes auditioned and performed Mariah Carey songs.
