Is this 'classical' because it's being played by an orchestra? Or was it 'classical' even when rendered in MIDI? Either way, if you're not moved by this then you have no soul and I don't want to know you.

Not really any particular “song” but Scala Radio play many interesting “classical” interpretations of modern music, LED Zep, The Who and Lady Gaga spring to mind as examples. Pretty much become our “go-to” radio station. Even a whole program about classical soundtracks for computer games

Just cooked a barbecue on a warm evening, drinking beer while listening to the fifth and sixth Brandenburg Concertos. That's as near to heaven as I'm likely to get any time soon.
