Halo commercial music

A couple of minutes ago, on the History Channel, I saw a commercial for Halo 3, with the tagline "Imagine."

Question: What was the classical piece being played in the background? --zenohockey 01:16, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That'b be the middle section of Fréderic Chopin's "Raindrop Prelude". Beautiful music, great pick. (By the way, it was probably "Believe", and not "Imagine". At least I've never seen "imagine" in the Halo 3 marketing) — Kieff | Talk 01:30, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it was "Believe." ("Imagine" is a good song too ;) I couldn't care less about the game, but the song caught my ear. Thanks! --zenohockey 01:53, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sure! Here's a handy link on Altavista where you can find different versions of the music for download. — Kieff | Talk 01:59, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And here's some information about the piece (formally called "Prelude No. 15 in D-flat major"). -- JackofOz 01:48, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just wondering. What is the latin song in the other commercial?

Looking for the name of this song

Naruto 119 in English, this song has probably gone on strong for a long time. You can listen to Naruto 119 to find it. In the UK. Here are some of the lyrics:

"that's why it's goodbye"

and

"now we just try to understand each other blah blah blah"

"and eventually we will find out that. . . etc"

What is the name if this song? It was the song to Naruto theme for while but it changed.

Unlike in Japan, dubbed anime series generally don't have soundtrack albums released, so even if it does have a name other than "Naruto Opening Theme #2" (or whatever), you're unlikely to find anyone who knows what the title actually is. Confusing Manifestation 06:41, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This Google search brings up "Seishun Kyosokyoku" by Sambomaster. It's also on the IMDb soundtrack page. --jh51681 07:59, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How tall is Lisa Butcher, presenter of What Not to Wear, UK series.

She said on TV she was six feet when she was twelve - how tall is she now? 80.2.201.6 16:11, 6 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
