You obviously like classical

But I have to say, I loved the LotR soundtrack

legolas, yes I prefer cIassical to anything else...and there was one other song I wanted to put but couldn't find a decent representation of it on YouTube...it was The Steward of Gondor from Return of the King...so if you have that you'll know which song I'm referring to.

BBS, yes, even though I am a Man Utd supporter through and through, I do like that song...especially sung by Mario Lanza...It is from Carousel by Rogers and Hammerstein and the original artist is Christine Johnson...it was actually intended for a female vocalist...

I like a couple of Evanescence's songs, as well as some good old Beethoven -- and the Lord of the Rings pieces are just totally epic.

Hi Wren, Have you seen the Twilight film?? There is some fantastic music in the soundtrack. I've got it all on my ipod and listen to it constantly. "Leave out all the rest" and "Going all the way" are my favourites. Some of the tracks are rather like Evanescence in sound. There are tracks by Linkin Park & Muse on the cd. I'm really biased because I think that Edward Cullen is soooo!!!! I know that I should act my age but I don't really care lol

@babs...you do know the actor that played Edward Cullen was the same guy that played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter, right? And I have seen the film, didn't really pay attention to the music, but I never do the first time I see a film unless the music is by someone I know (like Jerry Goldsmith, Hans Zimmer etc)...I'll have a listen at it next time
