I don't think so, that is what I thought before I heard the song... but I don't think so (not positive though).

incase some people don't know what "ave maria" means (i didn't) here is the definition

ave maria

\A"ve Ma*ri"a\, Ave Mary \A"ve Ma"ry\ [From the first words of the Roman Catholic prayer to the Virgin Mary; L. ave hail, Maria Mary.] 1. A salutation and prayer to the Virgin Mary, as mother of God; -- used in the Roman Catholic church.

That being said i'm not very partial to this song =(

Venus: Enter, enter here - men of all kinds and races, victims of reality! You who have the thirst for dreams. ... Venus: You, on life's bitter road, drenched in hard sunlight who have the thirst that once more the dark marvel of dreams...

Indeed, Ave Maria = Hail Mary ... Very common (in fact, mandatory) in choarl pieces, aria's, etc.

Schubert's and Bach/Gound(sp?) being the more mainstream popular pieces - though Andain's track/melody bares no similarity to them...

Nice tune, I like Andain - You Once Told Me as well. Any chance of a G&D Remix of that?

...some chance...
