Ooh I love Orbital. This is one of my favorite songs ever--and the video goes to it so well.
That IS my favorite song ever. It was for 11 years and then I very temporarily preferred Discard Your Fear by Riverside and Parabol + Parabola by Tool... but then I returned, inevitably, back to Halcyon On + On again.
Ever heard this version?

Although I heard On + On first... and it's my favorite.
Heard this version?
It's a remixed lyrical version of Halcyon On + On... the lyrics kick in when the vocals kick in... and throughout the song the wordless vocals are replaced with lyrical vocals (the orignal ones from Its A Fine Day by Opus III, which is what the backmasked vocals from Halcyon is sampled from):

Also, here's another beautiful Orbital song, of many:
