Ride vs Flight Of The Valkyries?
I was telling my 6 year old the name of the classical music that was playing during a commericial, Flight Of The Valkyries… or so I thought.
After talking about it, I looked it up and found Wikipedia has it listed as Ride Of The Valkyries.
I looked at a few more sites, and find both titles used, depending on the site.
Is one correct and the other not?

Answer #1
It’s probably a case of varying translations, as Richard Wagner’s original titles were in German (Walkürenritt). However, I’ve always heard it as "Ride of the Valkyries".
