1. hum a few bars for me

[Dying Eagle]

2. haha

I can't even think of a way to describe it. All i can say is it is used alot in videos and is VERY well know.

[Dying Eagle]

3. plus

It sounds like a opera because there is a strong womans opera voice in it. It is used in Alot of Anti-WAR and Anti-Bush Videos

[CBGLuthier]

6. Is there an online video you know of nt

[Phillycat]

7. Is it the one from that Nike commercial years ago?

The one where the woman comes into the Big Brother-ish place and throws the huge hammer through the video screen?

[mfidelman]

9. ummm... that was the Apple Macintosh ad during the Superbowl ...

... like a decade ago

[Phillycat]

10. Yeah, that's what I meant.

Whatever, it was 10 years ago, you knew what I meant, didn't you?

[Dying Eagle]

16. I just watched the Apple commerical

for mac from 1984, There was no music? just words

[Phillycat]

20. Hmm.

I thought I remembered the music I am hearing in my head (LOL). I've been looking at track listings for Romeo+Juliet's score and that's where I got the Wagner piece I listed below. I swear I know exactly what you're talking about. It's very sturm und drang, very german. DUM DUM DUM DUM! DUM DUM DUM DUM!

[Dying Eagle]

21. YES

You know what I mean

DUM DUM DUM DUM! DUM DUM DUM DUM! (Cymbol Crash)

DUM DUM DUM DUM, DUM DUM

[Phillycat]

8. Or, did you see Romeo and Juliet with Claire Danes and Leo D?

There was a song in there that I think it could be...

[CBGLuthier]

4. Have you ever heard it in a movie?

Name a movie it was in. Or maybe a specific commercial.

Is it choral?

Could it be Carmina Burina from O Fortuna?

[Dying Eagle]

11. I'm Sure I have

I just can't think of one!

[Phillycat]

12. Did you see Romeo and Juliet?

[Dying Eagle]

13. no

[Phillycat]

14. My guess: Wagner's "Flight of the Valkyries"

[Dying Eagle]

17. no

but just as famous

[Phillycat]

19. Wagner's Liebestod?

[progmom]

28. The Dum Dums made me think of Carmina Burana as well... nt

[matcom]

5. Requiem

that is what EVERYONE looks for :shrug:

[amazona]

15. it's Pachelbel's Canon

If I had to make one guess based on absolutely no information at all.


On edit -- I see I'm wrong because of the singing!

[crispini]

18. Betcha a nickle

it's the aria from La Wally. That's all OVER the place.

[Dying Eagle]

22. Please don't give up

I have been downloading all your suggestions and have not found it yet

Edit See post 20 and 21, we almost have it

[Phillycat]

24. Check this list:

http://www.bohemianopera.com/moviescompW.htm

See if you've seen any of these movies and if the song is in there. I could swear it's Wagner.

[AuntiBush]

23. Mosh by Enimen

Think I spelled it right.

[DS1]

25. Does it have a piano bit?

[tk2kewl]

26. sounds like it could be from Beethoven's 9th Symphony

the one that was used in "A Clockwork Orange"

[JimmyJazz]

27. I think you are wanting Carmina Burana - Orff
