random song question

[Rusty Shackleford]

Can anybody identify the song that's playing in this clip? It's a Barry Sanders highlight video, but I can't figure out the song.

I've got Princeton and Harvard people working on it right now (yes, I actually called them). Sounds like a movie score to something like Gladiator.

Straight from a nice woman in the Harvard music department:

It's "Lux Aeterna," also known as "Requiem for a Dream," composed for the movie of the same title by Clint Mansell. I think it may be the reorchestrated version for orchestra and choir that was used in the trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers but I have to admit I've never seen the movie; I'm not sure about that.

figured this would be a good place for this question.

Looking for the name or any info about the song ESPN uses during NFL Primetime or Blitz highlights.

Have been wondering for a while about it.

Kick ass, man. Thanks!
