Adagio for Strings

NFS4

No Lifer
I've been playing this piece over and over on a loop. So soothing yet so powerful...of course, it's the tune that was played throughout the movie Platoon. Anyone else have an affection for this piece?
 
The same. Liked it for a long time now. Play it a great deal upon returning home from work.

Had never seend Platoon until recently, made it that much better.

Makes me skin crawl...in a good way.
 
I have an album called Pieces in a modern style by William Orbit and it has a 7 minute remake of Barbers' adagio for strings, a very moving piece it also has some other really nice tunes on.
 
Yeah I like it but after hearing it in ten thousand movie trailers over the years I'm thoroughly sick of it. Curse you Platoon for causing the overexposure of that beautiful song!
