What the ...

Lark Ascending is Nr.1 again in the Classic FM Hall Of Fame.

Come on !! ... Recount !!

Okay, it's not a "terrible" tune, but ... Number One ?

Really ??

Aaaaaaaaagghhhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!

tony, what do the public know! (nothing, according to Tony Blair this week)
jj, couldn't you have sorted some vote rigging out ;-)
JJ, I know we are both Wagner lovers so why are you bothered with CFM Hall of Fame at all?
thanks Captain, Rach 2 for me, followed by the Beethoven as to the top 5.
Surprised it wasn't the release of the Knoxy Foxy Concerto - or maybe that's too soon for this years candidacy.

We are, seadogg ... we luuuurve Wagner.

You're right. I shouldn't care at all.

DT's first post ...

The top 3 were ...

Lark Ascending (Ralph VW)

Rach 2

Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis (yes, really!) (Ralph VW again)
As I was looking through the list I got to wondering what constitutes 'Classical' music when I saw that the film music to Star Wars was quite high up. Anybody else think that this isn't 'Classical' in the true sense?
At number 9 was the soundtrack to a video game, Captain...
"O Captain my Captain" the tinsel world has passed us by mate.
