I suspect you heard the same song in another context (perhaps in some 
user-created video or another online).  Assuming that's not the case, 
however, there's a chance you're reminded of a song from the Metal Gear 
Solid series.  Here's one rendition of the mane theme that's a bit similar:

Interestingly this theme (the Metal Gear one, less so the Kameo one) is 
pretty blatantly lifted from one by the Soviet composer Gregory 
Sviridov, so if this what you were reminded of there's two levels of 
indirection to the original source.
