[txrugbyfan]

I tell you now, do not drive an empty highway at night and listen to this song, you will go VERY fast

[MusicLove408]

@txrugbyfan lol



[cerberus400]

@txrugbyfan Rammstein has the same effect.

[txrugbyfan]

@cerberus400 yes they do, very much so

[TheLivijam]

I think, I jus got in love

[BewareSwordflash]

Hrm... On the ablbum, it's only about two minutes long. How'd you find an extension?

[BewareSwordflash]

@BewareSwordflash Nevermind. I just learned the answer to my own question.

[ANShea45]

someone tell me where the "love" button is.... :P

[joshpowerdow]

This song's breathtaking.

[Mega270798]

lovely piece xx

[WarningGrammarNazi]

Must... stop... replaying... must... SLEEP!

[runnerforlife642]

wow

[JacksMagicBean]

I love the violin part of this. It makes it so much different from the original, which makes it like two completely different (and good songs)

[miasmesia]

It doesn't have enough power, the original is way better, don't get me wrong, they are good, but i think this song is a fail, it reminds me of bond playing "o fortuna",also a weak version.

[Blimpop]

Requiem for a Dream OwO

[firebrand420]

actually, the song's true name is "Lux Aeterna" and was composed by Clint Mansell and played by Kronos Quartet for the movie Requiem for a Dream

[BellaCullen494]

güzel harika

[cathasmykeyboard]

I really want an epic fencing match to occur with this song in the background.

[yoho9090]

[mia00976]

Requiem for a Dream !!! Beautiful movie , such as the song !!! Thumbs up !!!

[Prancingwolf7]

Found a longer version, nice. The one in my playlist is only 2 minutes. Lets change that here... there we go!

;) Thanks

[Prancingwolf7]

@Prancingwolf7 Never mind.

:( 

[gamergeek]

@Prancingwolf7 I got punk'd too. It's 2 minutes with a whole lot of nothing at the end.

[EthanYaleton]

Palladio... enough said. This is also amazing, but that one is a masterpiece... So unique, so bold, taking an instrument from a long time ago, and making it modern... power, intensity, like metal... except the beauty of classical... Love It!!!

[RavenIchaRaven]

HAUNTING.

[verigabby]

Awesome song, wish it was longer but its great!!!

[hotthang105]

Im in love this song..Its amazing...im a r&b, jazz and hip hop kind of person...I would love to do a dance to this song....contemporary or ballet..

[poptropie]

What up with it not being able to play on my phone?

[luchialover4you]

soorry but wrong song name it sud be REQUIEM FOR A DREAM OR POWER

[BruinDanny]

@luchialover4you Requiem for a Tower is the lotr version so its right

[Blimpop]

@BruinDanny Requiem for a Dream

[BruinDanny]

@Blimpop No. They recorded a full orchestral version for the Lord of the Rings movies called Requiem for a Tower. Requiem for a Dream isn't even the original song's name. Its Lux Aeterna.

[InuKagndWolfsRaingrl]

HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS SONG AND IM SOOOOO GLAD ESCALA DID IT!!!

[Yuirichan1]

umm... it's like requiem for a dream XD

[mitsunakari1]

[TheMwahaha92]

[Smashfan258]

Though its a great song nothing will beat out Lux Aeterna

[chuckbacca76]

Sounds alot like Throw it up by Lil John

[Darkarch87]

@chuckbacca76 actually Lil Jon stole it from Clint Mansell .. Lux Aeterna is the actual name of he song and it was the theme song for the movie Requiem for a Dream

[LolNinja1234]

@chuckbacca76 Lil John and Escala aren't the enemy....Lil Wayne is!

[ercrep]

wow~ absolutely beautiful

[wolflover951]

I THINK ITS VERY BEAUTIFUL I JUST LOVE THEM IM A BIG BIG FAN!!!!

[bellebeau]

This is great, absolutely beautiful ... like a funky rap/rock/hip-hop rendition of Requiem for a Dream.

[szter01]

i love this song :) it's beautiful.

[shortz360]

@TheNick2569 the original is Requiem For A Dream dude have a look ;)

[shortz360]

@Silverknight16 yep thats what i said lolz

[shortz360]

Amazing cover and great band ;) xx

[TheNick2569]

@shortz360 whats the original? if you know id really like to know

[AlexRosenburg]

isn't this song used in a commercial for a movie? i can't remember the name, it's buggin the crap out of me :/

[made4speed1]

@AlexRosenburg i had to think about it for a while. but i think your right i believe it is used for the new season of Dexter where everything is flying around the room in slow motion.

[1701Tex]

There some reason the song cuts off with over a minute to go?

[LynxRyn]

@1701Tex I have the CD, the song is only about 2mins long. A few other uploads of Escala covers also have an extra minute that doesn't actually have anything in it.

[starwarshalo123]

Everytime I hear this I think of daughter of darkness from the night world series!

[codecola]

@AlternitiveNerd I found them through Pandora as well. Very good group!

[irishlad1420]

This has ruined Lux aeterna.. Nothing will beat the origional

[Matryx]

@AlternitiveNerd you and me both. Through my Rob Dougan channel.

[kylesoule]

Wow! Requiem for a Dream is my absolute favourite song...this cover is brilliant.

[ChrisJK94]

they are fit

[bigboss58]

damn, I thought this was a longer version to tricky bastard :P

[MissRyoko]

this song fricken rules!

[xTwilightSakurax]

is this also called 'requim for a dream'? because i know a piece that sounds very similar, almost the same with the same name,

[sk8rocksick1]

yes its also called requiem for a dream and lux aternea

[hindu22696]

this is an edited version made just for the lord of the rings twin towers

[Composer214]

The original is called Lux Aeterna and was written by Clint Mansell for the film Requiem For A Dream. This was later taken and redone for The Lord Of The Rings Battle For Middle Earth and renamed Requime For A Tower

[muziknurd]

yeah clint mansell composed Lux Aeterna for the Requiem for a Dream score and it was performed by Kronos Quartet. It was later redone for the Lord of the RIngs score and renamed Requiem for a Tower.

[cornuthaum]

Requiem for a Tower is the re-make of Clint Mansell's divine Lux Aeterna (from the movie Requiem for a Dream), and this track here is a remix of Requiem fo a Tower.

Lux Aeterna -> Requiem for a Tower (LotR) -> Requiem for a Tower (Escala)

[Meestercheese]

yes, it is a remix of 'Requim for a Dream' :)

[LordVlad]

I don't mean to hate on them, but it sounds like a lot of the music is being done by the orchestra, not the individual members themselves.

[wolfenflautist0994]

Do you really expect four people to make a song sound as full as it does with a full orchestra? That would require a LOT of talent to pull something like that off.

[EggieMeggieX]

i understand what you mean, but 4 instruments can sound like that

[potcrules123]

they have eletrical violin apparently so that might be helping with the sound effects

[MexiBizkut2012]

do they not use this same "song" for the SAW Series

[treezy504]

no that's the Hello Zep By Charles Clouser I believe

[MexiBizkut2012]

sounds very similar!

[zigge119]

Good song

[dci4life]

love it

[Mynotoar]

Why do you leave a pointless silence at the end of the video?

[bull912000]

the possibilities are...

a.) it's a very long rest

b.) the conductors arms got stuck

c.) the editor got a piece of popcorn stuck in his keyboard when he tried to clip the song.

(Yes, I know they probably don't have a conductor)

[DIDICOYFUL]

violin pieces are like that and its no difference for an electrical violin or string instrument. If you knew how competitions were like its formal to leave a silence for a while so the audience can take in your performance better.

[MrMeerkat247]

I understand this, but why does it have to last for a minute!

[tangein]

@Mynotoar good point

[Withouttunnels]

No, the original version of this song is named Lux Aeterna. From the film Requiem for a Deam, composed by Clint Mansell. Requiem for a tower is a remix done for the Two Towers. This is a rendition of that.

[Mynotoar]

Oh, I thought that this was actually renamed Requiem for a Tower by Escala, I knew that the original was called Requiem for a Dream and that it's real name was Lux Aeterna, though.

[TheCharissaclare]

the origonal peice of this songs called requim for a dream,taken for 1998-1999 film sun

[sh4ap]

has anyone heard there cover of kashmir they did with slash thats a pretty good blend of hard rock and classical music imo

[TehSnargle]

It's still rock,only using electric string instruments.

[xxpinkpalsxx]

[fancallapantsalla]

[gamalielserranocolon]

these girls are just awsome

[boredblackberry067]

I love this piece. one of the best on the album. I never thought i would get into classical music but this has deffo changed my mind

[gutongtravi]

isn't it acctually requiem for a dream?

[StyleAesthetix]

They decided to change the name for their album, I'm guessing?

[TheBlackHorse92]

Requiem for a Tower is the remixed version of Requiem for a Dream used for the LOTR Two Towers Trailer, it's the faster version that's used and covered more often.

[BhangraCritic]

It's actually Lux Aterena it was in the movie Requiem for a Dream.

[beamqueen2]

requiem for a dream is actually the movie, not the song

[Toadsanime]

That's the original piece's name, and the a redo was composed for a Lord of the Rings trailer called 'Requiem For A Tower'.

This is a cover of that.

[Vinusz]

I'm so glad I found this band!

[john26989]

Requiem is best song

[AdsumIma]

The song is much shorter on the actual album...

But I love this!
