"Exodus" is a soundtrack album by Ernest Gold with the Sinfonia of London from the 1961 film Exodus directed by Otto Preminger
The music score won the Academy Award for Best Original Score at the 1960 Oscars. The main theme from the film ("Theme of Exodus") has been widely remixed and covered by many artists such as Ferrante and Teicher, whose version went No. 2 on the Billboard Singles Chart. Other versions were recorded by Mantovani, Bob Fleming (Moacyr Silva´s nickname - his recording is featured on his album Mr. Sax), Peter Nero, Connie Francis, and the Duprees, who sang the theme with lyrics written by Pat Boone. Other artists included piano player Anthony Burger for the Homecoming titled "I Do Believe", a remix by techno-crossover pianist Maksim Mrvica, and it has even been used as the sample for the T.I. song Bankhead. The original version was used as a theme song for professional wrestler Mr. Perfect. Trey Spruance of the Secret Chiefs 3 rescored the theme for "surf band and orchestra" on the album 2004 Book of Horizons. Furthermore, Howard Stern tends to use it for comedic effect when discussing aspects of Jewish life
