Isn't the tune of the song used in action movies like LORD of The Rings? I wonder what the regular song is (the one in the movie commercials).
It's from Carmina Burana by Carl Orff. And to make things confusing is I've heard various versions (at least 3) of this song where the choir part (surrounding the song's hook) is completely different. I just found that odd for some reason. Buzda 06:54, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The one thing I remembered was listening to Nas' "Hate Me Now" on a radio outside while my class and I were on a trip in 1999. As I can tell, the sample is clearly "O Fortuna" from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. Is that good enough? --Angeldeb82 04:28, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It's diffenetly 'o fortuna' and i think redmans 'smash sumthin' samples the intro. btw 'o fortuna' sounds like something from star wars. 75.15.250.152 21:56, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
