Hi. There's a short choral sample that has been used in a number of films, TV shows, commercials, and so on. It's been asked about many times in the past. The sample is just a young boy singing a few "ooh" notes. The sample is used throughout the End of Days movie score. It's used in the track, "Mansion of Madness," from the TimeSplitters game. I believe others have mentioned the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" game, Chaos Bleeds, as including it in its score. A recent example was the "Cherry Fight" digital short from Gabourey Sidibe's episode of "Saturday Night Live."
The origin of the sample was once found, maybe in the early or mid-2000s. It's part of the immediate/promotional/whatever music where a composer can buy the CD and then use any of the samples for free in his/her own piece of music. That's why we've heard it so often in media. I know there was a link to the CD--which regular members of the public could not buy--and it may have been a four-disc set of choral, orchestral, sound effects, and other samples. I could have sworn that the answer and link were posted here, but I've been trying different search terms today and cannot come up with the post.
Can anyone help, please? Thank you.
By the way, here's a refresher of the sample. It's in the first few seconds of this track:
