Samuel Barber - Adagio For Strings ooohhh I JUST LOVE THAT
track!!! I also love William Orbits version. I know a lot of
peeps who diss Pieces In A modern style just because William
produced Madonna etc, I actually like that album a lot yall
should peep it. If you like classical music and electronic
chill music you will like this one.

hell, i like the madonna joint. that'd be the only album of
hers i'd ever buy, tho she does have some really nice songs
strewn about her catalogue of music. a highlight for me is
the bjork penned "bedtime story".

i can't find the album version of orbit's version of barber.
i found a remix. does the album version have beats? i could
dig an electronic ambient version of adagio but i dunno if
i'd be feeling a version w/ beats.

OOoohh I forgot Samuel Barber - Adagio For Strings now thats
a nice one!! I also like William Orbits version of that
song.

I know a lot of people who diss "Pieces in a modern style"
just because he produced Madonna, All Saints etc.
I actually liked that album a lot, I was really surprised.
