I'm trying to find the ORIGINAL version of the song playing in this video. I know I've heard it before, but I have no idea where to start as far as figuring out what it's called. I thought someone on here might know.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

:D

The video has a sick beat.

It's actually "O Fortuna" from Karl Orff's Carmina Burana, which was used in Excalibur. Somebody (Isabel?) had (has?) some of its lyrics in her (his?) signature. iTunes Music Store links:

The part sampled in the video (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=50704880&s=143441&i=50704767)
The part that follows, which is a lot better known (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playlistId=50704880&s=143441&i=50703676) -- in tons of ads, movies, "Hate Me Now" by Nas and Puff Daddy (P. Diddy?), etc.

It's Carmina Burana by German composer Carl Orff.

I actually like Nick Skitz's version/mix of "O Fortuna" way better.

Hmm...

I guess I'll just download both and get the one that's better. The reason I wanted it is because a friend of mine produces/sells beats and he would like to make one similar to the one used in the video.

Thanks for the help everybody.
