I am looking for popular music (i.e songs from 1950 or later) that use classical music as their tunes
Thanks

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$Trans Siberian Orchestra isn't only christmas music. They have one album which is not - it's called Beethoven's Last Night, and it is more like a rock opera. In it are a lot of songs that take famaliar themes and melodies from Beethoven's music - probably half of the songs aren't totally original, and there are a couple medleys:

The introduction to The Divine Wings of Tragedy by Symphony X is Holst's Mars - it's a good rendition of it, too:

I will note that it wouldn't fit well on a mixed CD, because the song is a ~25 minute long metal song. While after the introduction it doesn't really revisit the Mars theme much, there are some other melodic similarities through some parts of the song.
I don't really have any pop music to mention, but I'm sure someone else can chime in on that stuff.
