Multi-Grammy Awards winner Quincy Jones answers a question beside a Beijing
Olympics logo during a news conference in Beijing May 24, 2006. Famed American
impresario has offered to write a theme tune for the 2008 Beijing Olympics
after being turned into an enthusiastic Sinophile by his first trip to China.
The 73-year-old musician, composer, conductor and producer had his offer
gratefully accepted by the organisers of the Games, although they said they
would continue with their official song competition for the Olympics.[Reuters]
