In 2003, there was a great version of Twelfth Night with untraditional casting: Chiwetel Ejiofor as Orsino, Parminder Nagra as Viola, etc.

But the best part, for me, was the soundtrack by Nitin Sawhney. It had a version of "O Mistress Mine" I thought was very good indeed. Good enough that I did a sound capture from the DVD.

Recently I learned Sawhney made a longer version that he put on his album Human.

Here it is -- track 11, "Waiting (O Mistress Mine)."

The vocals are by Zubin Varla, who played the fool Feste. There are also some found narrative bits at the very beginning that are just plain odd -- I can only advise patience.
