Question Help - Tune for an old TV advert

Hi Guys. Hoping someone on here can help me.

I'm trying to find a piece of classical music used for an old "Old Spice" advert from the late 80's early 90's. I've tried looking on the usual webpages but I'm not having any luck.

It's a classical piece with a choir (all female I think) and it's quite warlike/emotional? It starts of quite softly but builds up to a rapture at the end.

I also think it was used for the great old "Carling Black Label" ads - 2 guys in a bar drinking Carling and this surfer comes crashing through the doors and they say "I bet he drinks ...... "

Can anyone help me - or am I talking a whole load of waffle?

Without checking anything the Old Spice advert seemed to always use Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana"

Pop over here and listen to the first track "O Fortuna" as I *think* that's what you're after.

Surf Nation - Times Online - WBLG: How Mundaka and the Old Spice ad are connected (for me, at least)

This should answer your question.
