Fortune Plango Vulnera (I Bemoan the Wounds of Fortune) Posted by: Skull10
Video duration: 164 seconds Though not nearly as recognizable as "O Fortuna", the second section in Orff's "Carmina Burana" is just as brooding and primal. This time, the ancient lyrics (buyoed by the primarily male chorus) impart not only the inexorable cycle of gain and loss, but the envy of, and schadenfreude for, those who steal one's power. Related: brass, carl, classical, orchestral, orf, percussion, symphony |

Actraiser Symphonic Suite - "Filmore" Posted by: Skull10
Video duration: 195 seconds A full orchestra interpretation of the greatest video game score of all-time. The most stylistically different piece from the original game music. The fast-paced, techno beat of the 16-bit incarnation gives way to rich strings in a baroque fashion reminiscent of 18th Century composers. Composed by Yuzo Koshiro Conducted by Kaoru Wada Performed by the Shinsei Nihon Symphony Related: classical, harp, japanese, nintendo, orchestral, super, violin |

Fading Red (Part 3) Posted by: Skull10
Video duration: 226 seconds The new millennium dawns with great excitement as the Cincinnati Reds acquire megastar and hometown hero Ken Griffey Jr. Unofortunately, the enthusiam is short lived when injury and mismanagement lead to perhaps the worst decade in franchise history.

Bing Crosby's Silver Bells - Backwards Posted by: Skull10
Video duration: 74 seconds (NOTE: The lead female vocals are errantly credited to Rosemary Clooney. I do not know who is the actual female singer.) More provocative and subjective than the RUN-D.M.C. clip, but fun nonetheless. If nothing else, it proves that supposed backwards satanic messages are not exclusive to the rock genre.

Run-D.M.C. "Don't Stop" - Clearest Reversal Ever Posted by: Skull10
Video duration: 24 seconds I will not make any suggestion as to what the reversal says, as I think you will hear it quite easily on your own. The reversed phonetic phrase is so clear, in fact, that it sounds as if it is spoken forwards. If this was not contrived on the part of the artists, then it is an incredible coincidence.
