Sounds like every military march written. Very reminiscent of the music they
play during the USA "join the marines" advertisements, for example.

Reminds me of "Hunt for Red October" - at least the beginning.

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:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNVCD1dsnJI#t=05m31s
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.

On further inspection, this slightly different theme from the MGS series
is a better fit:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIvdj2dwfxE#t=2m13s
You can still hear its relation to the initial MGS theme, but now it's
much more similar to the one from Kameo.

It reminds me quite a bit of a few things by Vangelis... Example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSETU2Vt6qM
Also, living in Finland, I imagine you've heard a similar tune or two by
Sibelius over the course of a lifetime ;-)
Best Regards,
Mike C.

Never played Metar Gear Solid, so it's probably not why it sounds
familiar.
The style of the music is reminiscent of Pirates of the Caribbean
(especially the main theme), but the melody is quite different. However,
I'm almost certain I'm not confusing the Kameo music with this.

Have you watched the Chronicles of Narnia movies?

Either way, I find it amazing that games have been receiveing so many
great OST like it was only available previously in movies. God of War,
Metal Gear Solid, Halo, Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, Final Fantasy...
top-notch stuff...
Overclocked Remix offers many great remixes, arrangements and
improvisations by fans for game music too, like the piano piece "Lonely
Petals" (from Super Metroid):
