Yes. That song gives me the chillies.

Also Dragonland did a killer rendition of Neverending Story.

ive been listening to a lot of Eisley, Great Northern, and A Fine Frenzy lately...

also gonna agree with Ashokan Farewell. that song is brilliant.

Prelude (From The Unaccompanied Cello Suite No. 1 In G Major, BWV 1007 - Yo-Yo Ma

and pretty much the entirety of the Last of the Mohicans soundtrack...

U2 - Ultraviolet ~ live in Washington during ZooTV

There is nothing more beautiful than Mirrorball Man using his "tenor" voice in this performance. I am awestruck even after seeing/listening to it for the 30th time in recent weeks on Youtube.

Savage Garden - Truly Madly Deeply
Bryan Adams - Everything I Do
Amazing Grace
Hallelujah (I like the Shrek OST one a lot)

Oh, and I definitely can't forget Mozart's Requiem.

Robert Plant remade a Tim Buckley song "Song to the Siren" on his 66 to Timbuktu album, and it is so absolutely beautiful, I get tears everytime I hear it. My wife and I are going to renew our vows, and we're going to use this song during the service.

Beielve it or not, George Michael does a nice live version of it on YouTube. Give it a listen!

Debussy's - Clair de Lune
Rimsky-Korsakov - Scheherazade
Holst's - Neptune from The Planets Suite

3 that came directly to mind... I'm not extremely knowledgable about classical, but those are sweeping, dramatic, and IMO 'beautiful' pieces.

Saint-Saens - Le Cygne (The Swan)
Simon & Garfunkle - Bridge Over Troubled Water, Sounds of Silence
Debussy - La mer (Clair de Lune is nice too)

The Clubbed To Death remix of Moby's Porcelain by Rob Dougan...although I guess any of Rob's Clubbed To Death (the Kurayamino "original" and Clubbed to Death 2) stuff would count as well :p
