It is very like the song I want, the main tune, except...it sort of goes up higher in pitch instead of down.
'Tis most annoying! It's like searching for a person in the world, but not knowing what they look like, their name, or anything about them at all!

I'm so stupid. I do know the song. I found it. It's called 'I Vow to Thee, My Country', but it might be better known as 'The Planets' by Gustav Holst - it's a section of the Jupiter song. I'm stupid because, I own the CD.
The whole thing is really great, I'd suggest listening to it. But the Jupiter/'I Vow to Thee, My Country' part is really rather special.
