I propose we change our National Anthem to "O Fortuna" |
|
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xa7B_S3O_sEO Fortuna statu variabilis, semper crescis aut decrescis; vita detestabilis nunc obdurat et tunc curat ludo mentis aciem, egestatem, potestatem dissolvit ut glaciem. Sors immanis Fate et inanis, rota tu volubilis, status malus, vana salus semper dissolubilis, obumbrata et velata michi quoque niteris; nunc per ludum dorsum nudum fero tui sceleris. Sors salutis et virtutis michi nunc contraria, est affectus et defectus semper in angaria. Hac in hora sine mora corde pulsum tangite; quod per sortem sternit fortem, mecum omnes plangite!

After the introduction it gets better. I need to listen again I think.

I listen to it constantly, all day long while I work. Years ago, I had a ripped version of Beethoven's 5th Symphony that had been remixed to a techno version. It was like 4 hours like and was the coolest thing ever. Unfortunately, I lost (or had stolen) the external drive with some of my music and I haven't been able to find it again.
