Anything that's Gregorian chant, "Dies Irae," from Andrew Lloyd Weber's "Requiem," "Jeanny," by Falco, "White Queen (As It Began)," by Queen.

Love your avatar by the way. Naked is my favorite film in the cosmos. The dialogue in that film is outstanding and to think that most of it was improvised is even more amazing.

Anyway, as for my favorite, I would have to Something in the Way by Nirvana and if not that then a Radiohead song. Although as to which one it would be, I have no idea- there are too many incredible radiohead songs to choose from. Maybe Climbing Up the Walls since it is so haunting and chilling.

Thanks. Yes, an incredibly underrated film. For what it is, its message and immersive characters floor you simulatenously. So powerful. Yeah, the long improvised passages of dialogue were often rehearsed. Appears very seamless don't you think?

Great choice for a Nirvana song.

For Radiohead, I'd either say Climbing Up The Walls or Let Down. Both very sombre, haunting and chilling. OK Computer is something of a favourite of mine, just as brilliantly cold and callous as The Bends.
