00:00Behind the scenes, a tune has been prepared which will play throughout each of the stadiums
00:05during the Olympic Games.
00:07On the piano, the composer of the official song for the event, Victor Lemaine,
00:14has been working on the project since last year.
00:16Often an idea comes very quickly actually.
00:19See, it's only a few notes.
00:21There will be France really welcoming the world,
00:24and I'm hoping to welcome everyone with my music.
00:27A composition closely followed by Tony Estanguet.
00:31We hope to have a song that was really catchy and easy to recognise.
00:35Something that makes you feel good.
00:37I think that it could live on after the Games.
00:40Passers-by in Marseille listen to the new album.
00:43We like it. It's quite moving actually.
00:47The tune was played for the first time Wednesday evening in Marseille.
