@muz4now Over the years I've used well-known melody lines from Beethoven (and Bach, and Handel) in the fades of various songs. See if you can pick either of these:

Everything is Love, by Leigh Harrison

Everything is Love by Leigh Harrison, released 02 November 2016 When you go down to the heartland Work a passage for your journey Smiling like a sailing ship on a sea of sunshine Dancing lightly across the ocean of love There's a magic in arriving On the shore of love's great island Stepping from your ship of dreams in a thousand candles Wearing hope like the shining raiment of love Love is everything and everything is love When you wake up in the morning Raise your eyes and praise the dawning Everything is new and you are reborn to see it Nothing dies if it ends its journey in love Raise your hand up, reach your arm out Move your body to release love Be the answer to the question that love is asking Be the question whose only answer is love Love is everything and everything is love There's a moment, there's a journey There is now and it's eternal Everything that was and is will be now forever Everything is an imitation of love Love everything and everything is love

Mister Ryan, by Leigh Harrison

Mister Ryan by Leigh Harrison, released 01 December 2007 Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if he's coming back again. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if he's ever coming back again. Choose your partners for the dance, Mark your cards and take your chances. Mister Ryan took a chance on me. In the french room after school, Il m'a enseigné très bien toujours We conjugated more than verbs. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if he's ever coming back again. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if that man is ever coming back again. Each child holds the world's sure future Promise of what is to come Mr Ryan promised me the world. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, Promises may fade away, but Now this child has a future of her own. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if that man is ever coming back again. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if that man will bring his lies back here again. On the platform the future sounds A distant diesel and I'm going down Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if he's ever coming back again. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if that man is ever coming back again. Mister Ryan is on that train And I don't know if that man will bring his lies back here again.

@elsemusic It's late here and been a hard day. I will "happily" listen tomorrow.

@muz4now Due to a little-known timezone quirk I've listened tomorrow already.

@elsemusic Hahaha!

@elsemusic Ode To Joy theme in “Everything Is Love”. I hear the flute playing a theme at the end of “Mister Ryan”, but cannot identify it.

@elsemusic This track has multiple themes from Beethoven plus a “Sunday school” hymn running throughout: https://muz4now.bandcamp.com/track/sneaking-in-through-the-side-door

@muz4now I think it's Bach's Air on a G String.

@elsemusic Ah, cool.
