whats that song??

[pepegonzalez]

hi. Im not sure if it is anymore but it used to be the theme song for an airline, i think it was cathay pacific. It is like a classical duet with operatic voices. I really like it. Someone also said it might have been from madame butterfly but i dont know which song it is. Can anyone help out here.

I think you probably mean the British Airways ad - in which case it is The Flower Duet by Delibes.

the title is also known as "Lakme" which is the title of the opera the piece is taken from.

There is a fantastic long version of this with a extended piano piece on the CD soundtrack of a film called "The Hunger" starring David Bowie, Susan Sarandon, CatherineDeneuve. You can listen to a part of it and order it from here

im listening to a bit of it....it sounds very much like the one ive heard but not the right song. Perhaps its another song from that opera. It might be from another advert and i was mixing up the two? still think it couldve been cathay pacific...thanx for your help tho this song is also very nice...PEPE
