You're an athlete at the 1988 Winter Games at Calgary, Alberta, Canada. You're about to move across snow and ice with as much speed, strength, endurance and grace as you can muster in the blustery cold... Get ready to give it your best--and remember the motto of the ancient Greek atheletes: "Citius, Altius, Fortius" - Faster, Higher, Stronger!" 

The above is from the manual to Winter Games from Epyx, which came to the  the Commodore 64 in 1985. The SID music was composed by David Thiel.

My piano interpretation of Skyline from the C64 game Cobra. The soundtrack was arranged for the SID by Ben Daglish and originally composed by Sylvester Levay for the Cobra motion picture. While it was arguably the best piece of the OST, it was never used in the movie. Ben created his version of Skyline on the Commodore, which became a very popular masterpiece back in the 80s. It is so melodious and enjoyable while still giving that slight sense of how serious this world can be. This is my tribute to thank Ben Daglish who gave us so much wonderful music, inspiration and power through his performances!
