    Hey I'm just wondering if anyone else agrees that this song is the best of the genre in recent times? It's just so fcuking class! If anyone has any opinions on this or can suggest a song that is possibly better than this, i'de love to get it.

    Not sure if I'd call it "the best" but it is a good song. Not sure about your other question

    I actually prefer when William Orbit did it and Paul Oakenfold played it for his final song @ Homelands in Mosney.

    William Orbit's version is better. Its more fluid, has better production, and sounds more epic.

    it's alright i suppose...
    sounded ****ing immense when he dropped it at global gathering... but i find it kinda hard to listen to when there's not 10,000 people in the same room going nuts :p
    orbit's mix is definitely better for home listening

    Definitely one of THE best trance tracks in recent times! Great driving music too. That's why he's the world's most popular DJ - whether some people agree or not

    Did Ferry Corsten not do a great version of it as well, or is my mind playing tricks on me? And for home listening, the original version (i.e. classical) version can't be beat (Search for Barber-Adagio for Strings if you want to get hold of it).

    aye. he was one of the remixers of the William Orbit version.
    and couldn't agree more about the original version - it's prolly my favourite classical piece. (along with Pachebel's Canon, Moonlight sonata and Gymnopedie)

    I was alwyas thinking that moonlight sonata would make a great choon, has anyone ever done a dance version of it? I'm sure william orbit must have had a go?
