I'm far from an expert but I've gathered some favourite pieces over the years, and noticed that it's usually the voices that do it for me and female voices at that. This one always floors me.
Great thread, by the way, Metallica.
"The opposite of love, after all, is not hate, but indifference."
Is this classical? Modern classical? Either way, Thomas Newman can sure write music. That whole American Beauty soundtrack is absolutely fantastic - not to mention the movie, which is also one of my faves. If you have a decent hi-fi system, listen to the whole soundtrack, all that music will just just go through you. At least that's how I feel. Amazing stuff.

Michael Nyman's 'The Final score' The one where he is at the game where we beat Spurs and it is bejeweled with clips of our Stanley... I cant find it anywhere..They must of took it down. Any of you wizzes know how to post up the vid?
If want to explore lighter classical music, you might like Radio Suisse Classique, which you can get through Internet Radio Apps. Like Classic FM, they play single movements rather than the whole work, so if you don't like what's playing, there's something new on soon. Unlike Classic FM, there are no ads and a bare minimum of chat. The presentation is in French, but your phone will show you what's playing so its no problem following it up if you like it. They tend to play more chamber music (ie small groups of as few as a single piano and violin, or string quartets), rather than full orchestral pieces. Not so much my taste, but Mrs Sheen loves it.

I may just check that out, ta.
Did not expect to be getting into classical music this week, far less as a consequence of a LFW thread!
