Sweet Symphony
Polish duo El Barto & Liam B have put together an unsuspecting mash-up that I really, really like.
The Verve’s Bittersweet Symphony and Marvin Gaye’s Ain’t That Peculiar make for a great pair. The vocals work so well with the strings and as the song builds and builds it really sounds like Marvin could have actually recorded it!

It’s just a shame it’s not slightly longer.
Marvin Gaye -- I Heard It Through The Grapevine (Live)
Indeed. Very true.
I don’t know why they haven’t put that up on their page yet – maybe it’s old.
