There's a piece of music that i really like and have heard so many times. But i cant find it anywhere because it hasnt got any noticeable lyrics. I always hear it in TV or film trailers. I have found an example in the God of War Trailer. http://media.ps2.gamespy.com/media/661/661321/vids_1.html

If any one can find out it would put my mind at rest! Ta in advance

The piece of music you're referring to is almost certainly "Carmina Burana", composed by Carl Orff.  It used to be on the Old Spice ads years ago, and it's been on loads of stuff since.  That's not it on the God Of War trailer though, just a cheap attempt to sound like it.
I've watched the trailer, and yes, it does sound a lot like O Fortuna from Carmina Burana, but it's not. The Tracks were made specially for the game God of War. So I imagine it's part of one of them.

most recently ENIGMA sampled the song in the track Camera Obscura (this is often how the track is known too)
