@ ChristianKühn - Cool! Thanks for the info. The first cue in particular was driving me bats. I thought it was from one of the Thor scores.
Conversely, much of Thor 2 reminds of trailer music these days. Never thought I'd like this kind of constantly high-octane music and while it can and does blend into one big mass from time to time, stuff from, say, Two Steps From Hell, Audiomachine, Immediate Music or Future World Music often makes for a very engaging listening experience. If you have time and a care, listen to this Olympic compilation from the 2012 London Olympics, courtesy of Immediate Music: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9028F0ECF214715B
I suppose that many of these cues are recorded with actual musicians and singers helps. Sure, compositionally speaking, this music is cut from a rather "simple cloth", but its execution often makes me go "Hell yeah!". I just wish these companies would release more their work to the public...
Anyhoo, glad I could be of help.

I didn't notice any film music but it was good to hear so much classical music - Borodin, Stravinsky, Khachaturian, Tchaikovsky etc and various choirs, throughout the Opening Ceremony.

Thanks for the additional links.  I agree with you "Two Steps From Hell, Audiomachine, Immediate Music " can be quite enjoyable if not over played.
