The song is called "The ecstasy of gold" but the movie is "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly". Still, that was an impressive description.
Edit: Seems my memory failed me and it's not the ecstasy of gold, as others have pointed out.

Nope.
"Ecstasy of gold" is in the same movie, but this song is called "The Good, The bad and the Ugly - Main theme"

Ecstasy of Gold is the best Ennio tune. Fight me. When Metallica plays that shit it sounds like God is about to ride out on-stage riding a horse.

Smh what about the side theme

That's what the second cell phone is for.

Ecstasy of gold is this one, Metallica played this too with the San Francisco Orchestra and it was as epic as you'd imagine:

One we're looking for today though is this one (the main theme):

Doesn't quite have that same riff, but some of the musical themes were reused in 'The Trio' which finished up the movie:

Admittedly, it's hard to find a song based on someone just writing out the sounds they think it makes and I feel like any Ennio Morricone score really should be thought of as a singular piece in harmony with the movie itself. This was one of his best, one of those movies where the dialogue could be optional, sometimes you didn't even need to open your eyes to understand what was going on.

Ecstasy Of Gold is from the finale where Tuco is running through the graveyard. The only vocalizations are from a soprano and a masculine choir.
