I, with the whole of my being, believe John Williams greatest song he's ever composed to be 'The Olympic Spirit'. Composed for the 1988 Seoul Summer Olympic games it represents the main theme and spirit of the games. 'The Olympic Spirit' is the perfect embodiment of the beautiful human experience throughout time. A theme for the games that unifies the world every 4 years in friendly competition.
The work has moments of grandeur, moments that envoke the feeling of watching ancient civilizations rise and humanity progress through the tides of time. For what was humanity's first form of entertainment if not tossing a stone around the fire? Did the children of our earliest ancestors not race and swim across the ancient plains and rivers? The games have grown and changed across time but the core of what humanity was is still deeply ingrained into the gathering of nations to simply play games.
'The Olympic Spirit' is an emotional piece that builds upon the understanding of what makes the Olympic games so important, the humanity within. The Olympics may have started in Classical Greece but the spirit behind them is far more ancient.
John Williams is a master of sound and is by far one of the greatest composers of all time, but 'The Olympic Spirit' is his ballad to humanity.
I strongly recommend you listen to it at least once, as you listen think upon our ancient ancestors, think upon the wonder and gravity of every nation and every kind of person cheering for one another, it is a song that echos that deep rooted connection we all have to those long lost people centuries ago.

🌍There are some real heavy hitters nominated in both categories that are barely being talked about. These are some of my favorite movies every year. Give them all a watch this year, except Emilia Pérez. That one sucks and no one should watch it.
