Hey, it's not uncultured for it to be called "The Babe Song". There have been lots of times when a well-loved bit of classical music gets "unpacked" into an anthem like this.
Every time I hear this piece, I think of Babe and the Farmer standing alone in the middle of the statium with the light coming down from Heaven... and the little mice.
This peice shows true depth and is beautiful in itself. I dont tend to like anything classical but my half sister used to sing me the song to this music as a lullaby, since she died I've had a passion for listening to this peice in all types. Thats why I listen to the whole music featured in the credits of the film "babe" as it not only imcludes words but a wonderful peice of music, such as this.
IN... IN... INCREDIBLE! I had a small feeling that the main theme of "Babe" came from a classical piece. It's even more beautiful with the organ. I think I might cry listening to this. Oh, goodness. I'm crying already. <:'-)
juste pour dire que j'ai d'abord découvert la version adaptée en reggae et que je suis heureux de voir que l'oeuvre originale est française... je ne pouvais qu'adorer l'adaptation ! vive la France ! j'adore mon pays !
..."if I had words" is not the original title...yes, it's a popular song by an English producer but he took the melody form French composer Saints Saens third organ symphony which is the real title of this lovely piece of music. This producer (forgot his name) did a nice job to give the theme a reggae beat and have it sung by Yvonne Kealy (?) if I remember correctly...a Dutch singer of the seventies...
@numbereightyone And you are TOTALLY missing out the Toccata from "Suite Gothique" by Leon Boellman (the whole suite is fantasitic, but the Toccata is of similar proportions to this!
soz i meant to post my last comment on another video for someone who didn't know what it was but i had two tabs up, i like the arrangement on this version though =]

That's not true. This video is for brass band. The Symphony is written for an orchestra.

this is not "the babe song." this is one of camille saint-saens' most wonderful symphonies - number three, the organ symphony.

thus, the babe song!

The two most powerful pieces ever written to show off the pipe organ, in my opinion:
(1) this
(2) Widor's Toccata

No love for Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor?? It makes organs sound great.

I've always loved this melody, and it comes from a truly impressive symphony. I'm just glad it has achieved a wider audience through "Babe".
