            I have to day some songs I will never get tired of. Mostly they're ones that no-one else has heard of or that everyone else hates. Still, such is my music taste

            A couple of them:
            Surrendering and Hands Clean by Alanis Morissette
            Thankyou and Take My Hand by Dido
            Saltwater by Chicane (the one off the Ireland advert)
            Forget About It by Alison Krauss
            "Love the earth and sun and animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown . . . reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency" - Walt Whitman

                I've been playing Madrugada's CD Industrial Silence to death lately. Great stuff, all of it!

                        In D Minor? (he had lots of them)

                        Chor of the Slaves, Aida (Tchaikovsky)
                        Er...of course you meant Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves from Nabucco by Verdi, right? (That's the "Va Pensiero" one that they sang at Verdi's funeral).

                        Carmina Burana (K. Orf)
                        Damn good choice! That was the first of three oratorios Orff wrote, and the subsequent ones get weirder and weirder, with imitations of cats shrieking, weird orchestra effects, etc. Far-out stuff.

                          Specially the live version when you can hear the Jap shoot himself at the end.

                            • That would have to be Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.

                              • None of you have probably heard of this, but the aptly named song "Pray" from the album Final Fantasy Vocal Colletions I - Pray.

                                What's so kickassish about is the fact that I use it to remind me of my current girlfriend when I am not with her... and it makes me cry. Every single time. It empowers me so much with emotion that I am actually afraid to listen to it.

                                Only other song that has made me cry was Enya's Caribbean Blue, and that was only on the first time.
