piece of music

[jamesg]

There is a piece of music being used quite alot lately, on the bbc and also on the xfactor i think, i last heard it on football focus today, its a piano piece, quite dramatic,and i think it is also in a film or been used on a commercial advert. Does anyone know what it is or maybe?
Thanks.

Try a band called Sugar Ros with the song Hoppipolla. I think it is used on quite a few adverts, and is very dramatic!!

Sorry, they're called Sigur Ros!!

its called Lux Aeterna by Clint Mansell, it was originally made for the film requiem for a dream, then used on loads of adverts and the lord of the rings two towers trailer and stuff.

It's just an educated guess but a lot of TV producers use a track of music called Clubbed To Death by Rob Dougan, which is a dramatic piano piece.
