Kickass Classical Top 100 (71-80)

[koutsen]

yes it is a part of reqviem

[belle011]

Was number 77 in the Simpsons? I think that song was played for homer.

[XxPilotVictorHugoxX]

Was #77 on Spider Man?

[Deadfox7777]

I thought that #75 was part of mozart's requim

[kickassclassical]

@Deadfox7777 Yes. The Dies Irae is a standard part of a Requiem (funeral mass).

[griffin324]

79. MONTY PYTHON!!!!

[TheLastAbacus]

72- lady in the water

[186mjn]

Was behtoveen austrian or german?

[lurker2626]

75 is far too low on this list. Dies Irae is like every EPUC!!! trailer movie music ever.

[31operafan]

#80: Flamingos with yo-yos attached to their feet. xD

#78: Heard this very often at Christmas.

#76: One of my favorite overtures.

#74: Often think of it when ice skating.

[TheCrasher92]

AAHH! Thank you kickassclassical!! I was looking for nº 75!!

I freakin' LOVE you guys!! ^^

[MultiFunkalicious]

Clair De Lune - De Bussy ... I recognise that in a totally different way from the rest, must've been in a film or something I watched. Anyway thanks a lot for making this top 100 list, absolutely fantastic! As someone already pointed out, it's very hard to find a song with no lyrics!

[ryallmackcowling]

1:30 number #72 Saint-Saëns - Carnival of the Animals

I now know what this beautiful song is called!

BEST USE OF YOUTUBE EVER.

thank you kickassclassical, I love you man. No, I LOVE you.

[mo389]

I <3 CLAIRE DE LUNE ! (77)

[EdjeBos]

Great list! I'm putting the ones I like in my favourites right away, so I will finally be able to put the names with the music. I like a lot, but have trouble remembering the composer and title as I'm sure more people do. My all time favourite is Barber's Adagio for strings. Curious what spot it is on in the list.. :)

[claynadian]

I love this list so hard. It's making me think of so many wonderful songs i've forgotten about.

[lalashotz]

i started at 1-10 and i still know all the songs !

[TiggerTears]

Wow, I've heard so many of these from old cartoons!! lol

[Illuusion]

FLYING CIRCUS!

[raynap]

15 people have nothing to live for! quick call the suicide hotline! don't jump!

[OWalexutza97]

i know the most of these musics from Barbie`s movies and from cartoons...

[UNNAM3D82]

#74 made me lol.

[tobimybaby]

i disagree with claire de lune....!

[nayajhen]

@tobimybaby You disagree with the composition? Does it offend your sensibilities. Debussy might not care either way :)...

[CheezkoBR]

# 79

IIIIIIIIIITS MONTY PYTHON'S FLYIIIIIIING CIRCUS!

[GraceOh]

I'm sure they used an orchestral version in Nicole Kidman's Chanel no. 5 ad.

[kickassclassical]

@GraceOh Yes! One of our favorites :)

[Juggafreeze2]

@GraceOh Ah yes! Clair De Lune.

[EgaoNoGenki]

72: I heard that from Disney's "Beauty and the Beast."

[kickassclassical]

@EgaoNoGenki Like @Massivecarcrash and @morchie717 pointed out way down in the comments, #72 sounds a lot like "West Wing" from "Beauty And The Beast," but isn't it exactly :)

[Cevaka]

@EgaoNoGenki Haha, even better!

Its used for Benjamin Button

[GameWorld135]

@EgaoNoGenki

I remember this song from game "Burnout Paradise The Utlimate Box".

[HeroicPhantom]

@EgaoNoGenki It actually doesn't sound anything like anything in the beauty and beast film. I don't why alot of people say that. People need to just listen more carefully to what their hearing.

[TheJimzhe842]

77 claire de lune is usually played by a solo pianist

[Everincon]

lol the monty python theme :)

[huhhhhh15]

the last one....NODAME anyone?

[Bakazuraz]

#72 = SO FUCKING MAGICAL I CAN"T EVEN STAND IT!!!!

[FilAm345]

why is it that everytime i listen to these songs, I picture EVERYTHING in slow motion and blowing up and at least one happless guy getting slapped in the face by his girlfriend?!?!?!?! XD

[looney1023]

shouldnt the clair de lune music be from the original (cough cough superior) piano version?

[kickassclassical]

@looney1023 You have a point. The piano version of Clair De Lune is the original and some would say the best.

We like the orchestral version because it was used in Ocean's 11, 12 and 13 and in the Twilight movies :)

[gtax3]

@kickassclassical

In Ocean's 11 there is a scene where the piano version of clair de lune is used(in the lobby when the team assembles for the first time).

Also, the twilight movies used the piano version of clair de lune.

[kickassclassical]

@gtax3 Hey, you're right. Could have sworn Twilight used the orchestral version, but we were wrong. Thanks for the correction :)

[behindyou123456]

@kickassclassical Twilight sucks.... but damn... I LOVE YOU FOR UPLOADING THESE VIDEOS.... I can't explain how happy I am to have all these songs in just 10 videos ... I found my favorites... thank you!!!!

[Mia199603]

Can you make a torrent or something like that with all those songs?

[toberses11]

put clair del lune higher, just because of oceans 11

[03jkeeley]

clair de lune is so much better on piano IMO

[PhelanVelvel]

I love classical music, but I hadn't heard "Bourrée In E Minor" before, and it sounds like Jack's Lament from Nightmare Before Christmas. o_O

[FinalFreek]

0:10

MONTY PITHONS FLYING CIRCUS!!

[DeadlyRuler007]

72 is what they used to write Harry Potter's theme song and 71 is what Danny Elfman probably used to write the music for Nightmare Before Christmas

[DeadlyRuler007]

every classical song that's famous has been in Tom and Jerry, Looney Tunes, etc.

[RafaellaRPL]

That songs are usually seen on Tom & Jerry... LOL

#72 Saint-Saëns "Carnival Of The Animals: Aquarium" is a Harry Potter(ish) song...

Nice Videos, I love Classical.

[killmeinyears]

[fragman08]

I recognise the liberty bell from many python sketches! fond memories.

[ThaCpaptain]

#77 they play in Ocean's Eleven at the final scene by the fountain :)

:O Number 72 !!! Its in Disney's Beauty and the Beast !!!

[ThaCpaptain]

[wydyney182]

77 - Spider Man

[kanchan00bhagat]

I have been looking for 80th Saint- Saens for almost forever.

Thanks a tonn!

[KimmyKuppyKake94]

Number 72 is from the previews of Babe on the old Universal Studio kids movies I had. Like Balto or Land before time. That song would play then babe would say something then the boss would say "Gather'em up pig." then Ferdenad would squawk. baha. 

[opclanby]

nutcracker number 78? :( dies irae 75? talk about the scream of the 18th century ;(

[Stealthanugrah]

Would have loved to have Debussy's Clair De Lune on piano only. Thoroughly enjoyed this post and will link it to my FB friends.

[AAmmyy22]

[elendless]

I was looking for the Clair de lune from Debussy, watched the whole series from 1 to 75 but i learned so much now, lotsa favorites in my collection, thanks

[maora01]

72 sounds similar to harry potter...

[SamWBellis]

@maora01 I know it as being in Godfather Part II and it is used throughout that Simpson's episode 'The Wife Aquatic'

[LeeLeenSuperstar]

Clair de Lune!!!!

[iluvdrakeandjosh]

#80 love it. and of course #78. Who doesnt love anything from the nutcracker suite.

[juap22]

I like too much, the only thing i dont like is the name "Kickass".... not appropiate, nothing to do with classical music. but... They say that North American are free, ok... so we have now "KickASS" and "classical" together, nice.

[iluvdrakeandjosh]

@juap22 haha can't spell clascial without that ass XP

i dont know why i noticed that. Maybe because you caps the ass.

[SamWBellis]

@iluvdrakeandjosh you can if you spell it 'clascial'

[iluvdrakeandjosh]

@SamWBellis :P oh duh (on my part)

[TheGlass50]

Thank you for taking time to post this...It's amazing how prevalent these pieces are in our lives...

[Futureboy2026]

76 rules

[DonMishima]

When I die, Mozart's Dies Irae will start in my head.

[ForestG16]

have you noticed Dies Irae appears again here? (it was in the 100-90)

[kickassclassical]

@ForestG16

The "Dies Irae" is a standard part of a Requiem (funeral) Mass.There are several Requiems by several composers - and so there are several "Dies Irae" pieces.

#75 "Dies Irae" is by Mozart. #98 "Dies Irae" is by Verdi. Two different pieces by two different composers.

Visiting the website will help clear up any questions you may have :)

[tommy9882]

@ForestG16 what a dumb shit

[mayolohk]

@ForestG16

yes, just wondering why....

[Laura697]

77 is beautiful *_* <3

[Justinian43]

dies irae rocksss

[KupoImAMoogle]

i thought 72 was that song in "beauty and the beast", haha. :l

[DarkSabre753]

@KupoImAMoogle It is.

[lunamoonshadows]

@KupoImAMoogle I believe it is.

[karyoplasma]

@KupoImAMoogle

it was!

[kickassclassical]

Alan Menken's "Prologue" from Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" soundtrack does bear a resemblance to Saint-Saëns' "Aquarium." But it's not the same piece :)

[MsXizan]

@kickassclassical: Cool.

[Massivecarcrash]

@kickassclassical

I believe you are thinking of "The West Wing" by Alan Menken, same movie. It's the scene where Belle discovers the rose.

Thanks anyway for making these videos.

[Aden0]

@KupoImAMoogle I thought it felt harry pottery? haha

[kirkky9]

Clair De Lune is in my top ten

[UnderSoap]

We're playing 80 in my school orchestra

[wiimanic1]

so tom and jerry. the show pwns :D

[star0angel0a]

just so u kno in ur link things wat ur previous video is its supposed 2 b ur next video

[MrSquare]

72 is on the Benjamin Button trailer too. Brilliant piece of music

[thewinner64]

Number 78 is in my top 10.

[kickassclassical]

Saw all the thumbs down so we thought we'd explain that while Sousa's piece is indeed a march, it's just titled "The Liberty Bell."

[xxxFRIARxxx]

Thanks for the correction. Man when I'm wrong, Youtube will sure let me know! :D

[Lucci]

72 was in an old movie!! does someone knows the name of that movie??

[melTAMU11]

it sound a lot like the beginning of The Beauty and the Beast. it may be the same song

[Lucci]

YES!! that's the movie, I love that movie. I remember the part where the beast was taking belle to her room, I think that is the part where the song is played.

[UKSDragunov]

Harry Potter... Sort of wish I didn't know that... :(

[FinalFreek]

73. "look son! i'm playing all the right notes! but not necillery in the right order!" good old morchame and wise

[ohhMOONshoesPOTTER]

72 AHHHHH I love that one. It's in the Benjamin Button trailer.

[Nemanjazz]

71 -> can't you see he's the man, let me hear you applaud, he is more than a man he's a shiny golden god. lol :D

[renman103]

@Nemanjazz bach certainly is the man.everyone else came after him but(jethro tulls version of this piece ,is not very bad either)

[xNecroKey]

What the hell! is Mozart's Dies Irae doing at number 75... talk about retarded tastes... that should be in the top 10 hands down, no argument

[rodolfocorrea3]

75 the best in all times!!!

[chern31]

claire de luna is from oceans ha

[AnryK2690]

@TheIdentCritic Verdi's version is  trumm-drum, though ingenious, indeed. But this is divine.

[ewa362]

72 is beatiful :D

[msngrsgfsxng]

same... most of them from old movies and cartoons

[HavinFun805]

isnt 72 out of beauty and the beast?

[charmed6057]

No, if you read the side bar, it tells you. It's from Carnival of the Animals.

[melTAMU11]

@havinfun805i think so

[ThaCpaptain]

#79 is the theme song for Monty Python's Flying Circus :)

[Wuzupshamu]

YESSSS. Love the Pythons.

[Shotgun93Steve]

I must be tripping, but was #71 in "The Corpse Bride"?

[trakll]

i don't know about that, but it's in Tenacious D the Pick of Destiny:D

[irvingomez7]

@trakll lol thats what i was thinking cant you see hes the man let me here you apploud hes more than a man hes a shiny golden god :)

[JediOrder661]

clair de lune is in ocean's eleven

[KingVerac]

You serious?? 77 should be way higher. That's Clare De Lune written by Debussy!! How dare you! lol

[LilyAlmond]

Hear, hear!!

[kickassclassical]

Follow us on Twitter! @kickassical

[hallefishaa]

I'm happy to say I recognized nearly all 100. Mom & Dad raised me well!

[Shotgun93Steve]

Same here. :P *high five*

[beyondmostofu3]

@hallefishaa well... recognising them is easy, as most of them are used in popular TV adverts and other sources of media... what would be a bit more difficult would be recognising their compositors and the names of each composition only by hearing them :D

[FischKopfD]

@hallefishaa

holy shit

[sadizes]

Pfffft...Debussy is over rated.

[AnryK2690]

75 should be much higher

[rscool997]

72 reminds me of Beauty and the Beast

[inspired47]

exactly what i thought

[RavenMischke]

71 is my school bell... O_o

[KupoImAMoogle]

@RavenMischke - you've got an awesome school bell! mine's just this obnoxious "ding-dong"

[RavenMischke]

I'd prefer THAT. Now my school has completely ruined things for me. How will I ever enjoy that Bouree properly without being reminded to school...? :( Ugh.

[counterclockwise123]

Clair De Lune by Claude Debussy should be in the top ten.

[Beezia]

72 sounds wicked

[BPhoenixProductions]

And at the end of 79, cue giant foot smashing stuff.

[coolhammerNL]

75 should be in top 20's

[zzzzz87]

<3 skaters waltz, top 10 material

[FinalFreek]

no. 73 "look son i'm playing all the right note but not in the right order"

[dhastie3000]

79 was the theme from the video game hogs of war XD
