What's your favorite version of "Adagio for Strings"?

There have been quite a few remixes of this classical track. Definitely the most remixed classical track in trance music today.

I've come across four versions:
--------------------------------
William Orbit - Adagio for Strings
William Orbit - Adagio for Strings (Ferry Corsten Remix)
Tiesto - Adagio for Strings
Skip Raiders - Another Day (Perfecto Mix)

I'd have to say my favorites version would either have to be the Tiesto or Skip Raiders one.

If there are other remixes not listed, post them here.

The William Orbit original I don't have in my possesion, The Ferry Corsten remix I have only listened once, the last one of the list I don't know... So I'll go for the Tiesto-version.

And have to admit, it is a nice track

Mat Silver and Tony Burt remix.

By far my favourite is Ferry's version, keeps alot of William Orbits bits which is good

Some more mixes to add to the list:

DJ Tiësto - Adagio For Strings (Fred Baker Remix)
DJ Tiësto - Adagio For Strings (Danjo & Styles Remix)
DJ Tiësto - Adagio For Strings (Phynn Remix)
Minimalistix - Adagio For Strings
Skip Raiders - Another Day (Brainbug Remix)
Skip Raiders - Another Day (Moonchild Remix)
Skip Raiders - Another Day (Perfecto Trance Mix) >> not the same as Perfecto Mix
William Orbit - Barber's Adagio For Strings (ATB Remix)

Samuel Barber's original classical piece from 1936 still remains as the most touching for me even if it has been remixed into trance numerous times.
