    What is the name of the classical "pump up" song?
    What is the name of that classical song that is always played in montages for sporting events. It is often on sportscenter along with football highlights. It is also often used with highlights setting up a big game. There are no words to the song. It goes something like this: duh duh duhn duhn duhn duh... duh duh duhn duhn duhn duh. It might have been used as last years NFL playoffs theme song. Thanks for the help.

    The name of the song you are looking for is"The final countdown" it is by the group "Europe", you can watch it on youtube.com. It is from the 80's, there are also many trance/techno remixes of this song. Please rate me on this answer since I am new on here... :-)

    Iknow the one you are talking about, and it is not Europe, it is a classical style type of song, starts with the horns and then goes to the big drums right? But I have no clue what the tital or who the artist is.

    I know the song and I am trying to figure out the name too.

    Here's a Providence College basketball video with the song in it. Does anyone know the name of the song?

    Oh, now I know the piece you are talking about. The classical piece in the beginning is Carmina Burana-0 fortuna by Orff.
