I remeber the first time I've heard this song on my Grundig Micro Boy transistor radio, that was one night in '84. I was in the army on had guard duty, damn,- just as if it was yesterday..
So charming. Straight back to the early 80s. Cleanly made recording, nice and sharp - reminiscent of Genesis and their ilk, but somehow refreshingly different. Oldfield never quite surrendered to Prog the way some of the sillier acts like Yes and Wakeman did. He stayed sane.
France should investigate its own "dirty and bloody history instead of other nations France was responsible for the deaths of 45,000 people in Algeria in 1945 and for the massacre of up to 800,000 people in Rwanda in 1994.PLEASE CHECK WIKIPEDIA

There was a Radio Chart Show in Germany in 1984, where this song was voted on No.1 for more than 1 year ! For sure also a part of the soundtrack of my life...
1991 rok, wakacje nad jeziorem gdzieś w Polsce, spanie w stodole wypełnionej sianem, muzyka Oldfielda i Enyi, i "to france" i ona... Mam jeszcze kilka starych zdjęć i kasetę z tym nagraniem , którą puszczaliśmy nad jeziorem, nie widziałem jej już 15 lat, a mieliśmy razem żyć wiecznie......
Top song, a must listen for every 80's fan! I never cease to listen to this one, along with Moonlight Shadow, my two personal favourites. Greetings from Portugal! :)
It's interesting how in Mike Oldfields' songs the singer is treated as an instrument among others whereas usually the singer is presented as performer.
Toute ma jeunesse ; attention, je ne suis pas nostalgique, mais bon, il faut bien admettre que certains "chanteurs/chanteuses" style Star Ac ou autres, propulsés à coup de pub et de pognon, sans ou presque de voix, dans 20 ans je pense que tout le monde les aura oubliés
Vive les années 80, The Cure, Indochine, la New Wave, tout cela cartonne encore aujourd'hui
@cperry631 lol usa is a mix of shit... u are no real country... france is a real country existing for so long time.. usa is just a max of every nation, no real nation fuck you!!!!
@cperry631 What did the French do to you, and why are you hear if you don't like France. In fact, have you ever been, or do you just hate them for no reason?
i like france and i love carla bruni ,I like French food but I prefer the English´s cuisine,i like champagne from usa it´s as good as french champagne french i have some questions for u
1 do french ppl take shower everyday?
2 do french ppl use deodorant?
suggestion: i think french should work mor than 35 hours per week.
Born one for the other! How could Maggie express her angel voice without these Mike's beautiful guitar sounds. I remember the time when i first heard this song! It was a cold winter night but this song then unfrozen the ice at once. Great song, great time!
95% of teens these days listen to the same pop songs over and over. if your one of the 5% left who still listen to real music, thunb this up, then copy and paste it to at least 5 video's. DONT LET THE SPIRIT OF ROCK AND ROLL DIE!
its worth mentioning that mike is a top guitar player and more than capable of holding his own with most axe men. i heard an interview of him once where he said he dosent consider himself a great keyboard player etc... its just that happens to be what people think of him due to tubular bells an that he thinks of himself as a guitar player..............and what a guitar player he his.just watch an listen to his touch an feel on lots of his tracks. top notch.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SONG!
