    Says please log in to view videos so can't see it, I'm on my phone.

    I'm gonna have a guess at adagio for strings from Platoon?

    Not a big fan of classical mind, no further suggestions here!

    Superb music and film.
    I'm calming down now and like quite a few classical songs and musical pieces.

    There's some cracking pieces, esp Mozart. Don't listen too often, but nice n relaxing when driving or the brain needs a bit of a break working late...

    I can even remember how old I was when I first realised I liked Classical as well as Rock.

    I was 12 the music teacher played parts of this to us for the full hour of our lesson.

    Griegs Peer Gynt suite.

    How do I remember it so well?
    I got suspended for a week when I "borrowed" it!

    I bought the LP when I started work at 15.

    What I would call more modernish classical. House of the King Focus.

    Some of you oldies may recognise it as the theme music from "Don't ask me!" Magnus Pyke and David Bellamy's show.

    I can understand it completely mate, good choice, different things for different people. No one option is better or worse!

    Love classical and Opera, prefer female Opera singers to male.
    Love Bizet's Carmen and most of Verdi's music, also Debussy is one of my more recent favourites.

    Had a listen to the English composer Gustav Holst the other day - his Planets Suite is quite evocative - tend to play Vivaldi if I want to chill

    It was the good film part that gave it away mate, it's possibly the only one I know as well, so I was out of guesses after that!
