My husband's contribution to the 2010 Olympic games...

Chris wrote the Olympic theme song for the city of Richmond. He calls it "Today", it's alias is "Dream it":)
You can find it on youtube; sung by a friend Matthew David (Matt Cooper)The city of Richmond did a great video for it; you'll see Chris in the background playing piano:)
Chris wrote, composed, played and recorded every instrument, in our studio.(Epimino Sound)Chris mixed, mastered, live recorded the choir on location, and had our babysitter, Shelby Sperling (a very gifted young vocalist) do the female background vocal:)
Matt will be singing Chris's song on Canada AM this Saturday morning, from the Richmond Olympic Oval. We will be there for 4am film time as a family, hopefully you'll see us. The Canadian Tenors will also be singing. It should be an amazing show!!

Tune in!!

The following are the lyrics of Chris's song.

Today
Words and Music Copyright Chris Janz 2009

Verse 1

It's begun, you live to see the chance of a lifetime,
You can run, you can fly, you can win, here and now is the right time

Come on, come on, it's just beginning

Chorus

It starts with a dream and then becomes
The heart of a seed and the soul of a love
You start to believe that belief is enough
The future's just a dream away
And we believe the future starts today

Verse 2

It's a call, in the ground in the air that we're breathing
Through it all, you have always been believed in

We're born to shine and more than ever
This is the time to show it better
Walk through the fire, there's no surrender
Let's give a fight the world will remember

Bridge

The dream is more than one we're all together
Dig deep, and find the strength within
And we believe that this will last forever
Our dream, our future now begins
