I'm trying to think of this piece of music. I think it's by a Russian composer and sounds a bit like O Fortuna.

Do you mean because it's a choral piece, or just in terms of general atmosphere?
Sorry to be pedantic, but there are several pieces that I can think of. You could try 'Night on a Bare Mountain', which is quote similar, or other pieces by Mussorgsky, Prokofiev or Tchaikovsky.

Is it the music of the Omen...? That sounds the same, althoug O Fortuna is always the one people associate with the Old Spice aftershave adverts...

It's Carl Orff. The music is Carmina Burana. Orff composed three pieces like this called The Three Fortunes, of which Carmina Burana is the second piece. In Carmina Burana O Futuna is the opening song, and closes the compostion at the end.
Carmina Burana is about travelling monks who frequent taverns singing songs and having a general knees up. The songs are based on German Medieval poems.
