    From a timing and music synchronization standpoint this was the best display certainly at that time and I haven’t seen any other New Year displays as good as this since…The pause and restart during ‘Firestarter’ is incredible and they managed to sync the barge rockets to each individual musical bar of ‘You really got me’ by the kinks…..the ‘Nuclear’ multiple launches at the end to ‘Faithless’ is absolutely un-rivaled….

    • @sirhexagon5393

      London's 2020 display was this good with sync as well ngl, down to the beat. 2019, 2017 and 2016 had pretty good syncs as well.
      Honestly thats what makes London a better show than Sydney's, it feels proper. Sydney's show is brilliant, but it suffers from a horrid taste in music.

      Thank you for noticing the amount of work that went into this. I started curating this playlist weeks before inside a small room at BBC Radio 1, when I was a DJ there. I saw it as a mix between a DJ set and a film soundtrack. It needed to have drama and anthems, represent the best of British whilst repping the World. Playing Nigerian afrobeat by D'Banj and a Punjabi remix of Jump Around gave me immense pleasure.

    I've had a pretty rough time since 2012 so I like to go back to these 2012 videos when I'm feeling down as it reminds me of a time when my life was simpler and happier but its also reminds me of who i used to be. All that youth, innocence and enthusiasm for life. It really snaps me out of the mood I'm in. Its like the past me is giving present day me a shake and saying "Yeah things haven't gone the way you hoped but that doesn't mean you should stop. Only you can get yourself out of this hole you have fallen into. Go live!"

    I return to this display often and as the years go by since, I still haven't seen one which tops it. Every time I watch it, it's like seeing it again for the first time.
    In my opinion, this is by far one of if not the best fireworks displays ever created in combination with the music mix and it's synchronisation.
    I would pay good money to have this recreated so I could see it LIVE like so many lucky people had the opportunity to do, even if it was in the millions like it was here.

      My fireworks in St Julian’s where I live go absolutely nuts and my sister starts filming them from my bedroom window. I can’t wait to have my first New Year’s Eve 2024 with United 93 and I’ll be paying tribute to the heroes of flight 93 itself exactly one second from midnight telling the heroes how much I miss them and I’m sure they’ll be looking down on me and my sister that night. It’s going to be incredibly emotional

Just when you think it was all over, they bring out the big guns. What a finale!

    This has to be one of the best,well synchronised ( Due to GPS being used to synch fireworks,music,lighting together) firework displays ever, They had a £1.9m budget for this display which excluded policing costs. £276,000 of fireworks was just used for Big Ben.The display was put together by David Zolkwer, Jack Morton's creative director, who was part of the Athens Olympics. Firework designer Darryl Fleming chose the fireworks using his knowledge of how high and long they burn for. They had a "hugely complex" 300-page cue list with 5,500 triggers for each of the fireworks. Record viewing figures of 12.6m, a million more than 2011. Hopefully 2016 will be just as good.
