    As far as the music goes mine's another vote for Ralph Vaughan Williams; Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis; The Lark Ascending; Fantasia on 'Greensleeves'. In that order.

    Don't you mean local STEEL band. Bloody racist.

    That piece of music

    'Wires' by Athlete (down long corridors through automatic doors.....) was around when my mum was dying of cancer.

    Another vote from me for Zadoc the priest.

    Aled Jones singing, 'The Snowman' (walking in the air) or rather, my sister playing it on the flute makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

    The Flower duet from Lakme by Delibe.

    Barcelona by Freddie Mercury and Monserat Caballe makes me tingle.

    An Ending (Ascent) by Brian Eno, very atmospheric and it's been used for countless TV shows and adverts.

    "Eternal Father, Strong to Save"

    Heard at far too many family funerals, always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

    Despite not being even the slightest Jockanese, another vote for Highland Cathedral.

    In Rock, the opening bars & riff of Gimme Shelter (used particularly well over a scene in Air America where a C123 is racing down a runway with all manner of explsions going off in the background). Also the introduction to Money For Nothing, which was the first time I was properly aware of stereo.

    The first movie I remember seeing in the cinema was Star Wars. I was absolutely transfixed by the drum roll at the very beginning which I thought was part of John Williams' Sountrack, but since realised was a 20th Century Fox thing & it still has the same affect on me now as it did a five-year-old me (no, not wetting myself with excitement & asking for a Kia Ora).

    London: its "buzz" and "vibrancy"... can be codewords for drugs, late-night noise and multi-culturalism run (literally) riot.

    We're in greater danger today than we were the day after Dunkirk. Our military is absolutely incapable of defending this country.Thanks to Broon and Osborne .
