I've just been to Legoland (Yay!) but this tune was playing at one location in the park and I can't identify it.

I've no idea what it's called, but my wife and I both think that it features in a film.

Can you name the tune, the film, or both?

This is a fairly poor recording of the tune made using an on-screen virtual keyboard. It is by no means perfect, but it should give you an idea. After playing this bit a couple of times, it launches into a kind of grand chorus with much longer notes. (You can tell I'm no musician, but I do love my music)

I unleashed Shazam on your WMA, and it suggested "The Vow" by Stuart Jones. You can listen to a preview here:

Never heard of it, and my playing obviously can't be that good, because it's nothing like it. I chose the piano from the choice of instruments available because it gave the simplest reproduction. The music is, in fact, synthesised. Thanks for the attempt. ;)

It is a known tune. Surely someone can ID it.

I can't get the link to work, so I can't help much...

My bad. I'd uploaded what I thought was a slightly better version (it isn't, much) and I'd accidentally labelled it with a small letter- the original link has a capital U.

Fixed

It strikes me as quite a recent tune for some reason... :?

Sounds to me like Vangelis from 1492 Conquest of Paradise

Worked on the Oriana when she launched and it became the unofficial theme tune for the ship.

Yes, this is what I thought also but I couldn't think of the name at all.

That's the one!

Thanks a million.

Apart from the fact I really like it, it always bugs me when I can't place something.

I didn't think that the "verse" was piano, but some is and some is singing. The "chorus" is clearly synthesised. As a Vangelis track, I'm not surprised.

:D :D :D

It sounded like "My Bonny Lies over the Ocean" to me. :oops:

I know it wasn't great- although I can play the keyboard a little, the on-line, on-screen keyboard wasn't much good either.

It did the trick, though and we've just ordered Odyssey by Vangelis which features this track.

Yeah its the opening scene from 1492-Conquest of Paradise.

Love the music from that film but never sat and watched the film itself :oops:
