...It's the song for the current gatorade commerical with Manning, Jeter, Wade, and Sharapova (I think it's her). It's the classical opera song that is often used in movies and when hyping up different sports.

Thanks

My initial suspicion is it is Carmina Burana by Orff (O Fortuna, to be specific), but let me look up on youtube to see if that is what it is (I don't know the commercial off the top of my head, but that is what is typically used by your description there).

If this is it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIlEv34dKVI

then yep, it is O Fortuna from Carmina Burana.

I concur with MJ4H. Never saw the ad til he linked the YouTube version of it, but it's definitely O Fortuna from Orff's Carmina Burana.

Also the main theme in The Omen (and in a ton of other movies)
