Saw him at Sheffield City Hall in the 1990's ... one of the best live performers I've ever seen ... such a diversity of musical styles.

I like reading the original poll by tomsk. Witless semi-moron is such a classy way to describe some people. Great use of language.

Despite the fact that I owe the vast majority of my appreciation of classical music to some crappy car commercial or similar, I fondly nurse the conceit that simply listening to whatever the radio broadcasts is somehow improving my mind (like I remember any of it)! Here's a particular favourite by Mozart (so it must be good).

Here's something more contemporary that I find entirely compliments Bach. Its almost as though they were part of the same score.

Emotional music at it's finest ... superb choice which can only be matched by Barber's Adagio.

No doubt ... it is in my view the ultimate in emotionally charged music ... rather like Mornington Crescent I suppose, it will always be the final destination Rog

I quite like Purcell's cold song. Amazing he was quite a young chap when he wrote it. The chromatics are great Competent but scary version Below version is less scary but I bet the man himself would prefer the first one Klaus Nomi the counter tenor or whatever he was was something else. Yes it gets in your ears but that voice is incredible. That version was done shortly before he died of AIDS at the age of 40 or something. 1980s. They say he was a fudge nudger and when I bought a cd on eBay it was classed as "gay interest" but I think it should be under musical interest because of the amazing vocals.

Like the first comment on the list, I heard this on the closing credits of a film and was taken by it

This has emotion...I often wonder just how ecstatic the band were when they discovered the lyric 'The smell of burning leather as we hold each other tight / As our rivets rub together, flashing sparks into the night'. Them were the days.
