Really, the entire Oldfield family are just too talented...my god, what an angelic song, mixed with that Mike Oldfield sense of separation and layers...just magnificent.
When I was a child 30 years ago and I listened for the fist time to this song my mother said: "Son, why are you crying?" I was crying because I was caught by Sally's voice and this hauntingly song.
Now, every time I listen to this song, I remember my mother and bring me back good memories. :)
my englisch is not very good i want to have kontakt to sally !!!!!! Wat a person can help me ! please send me an e-mailadressfrom sally to d.gadesmann@gmx.de Where i can kontkt to her
judith durham,the australian singer has reported that many people found her voice had a rare healing quality,i certainly found it so. i find sally's voice is in the same small group.our own judith,what luck!, (g. in bristol where it all began)
I have this 7" single, was my Fathers, I loved this song as a child ( I was 6 yrs old at the time ), takes me back to sunny summer days, and reminds me of my father ( R.I.P )
OHHHH I have been WAITING FOR THIS SONG!!!! I just remembered today to look it up!!! Its is REALLY AWESOME! 10 YEARS I BEEN WAITING LOLOLOL! Thank you for uploading this

No need to jump at the person like a bible basher, blaming someone for worldwar 2, and since you are being sooooo particular.. read through the comments and notice that about 90% have got nothing directly to do with this video. Try to relax a bit!
I heard this song for the first time on the radio two days ago. I didnt even know Mike Oldfield had a sister. WOW she is some singer and she got a very unique style... I love it.
... now reading some comments on here.. ffs roof30...calm your knickers!.. somebody here (Forestamtul) made an absolutely harmless funny comment... (this song is about mirrors---- she/he got reminded by the song, that the body could do with a bit of tuning up or something like that).. that she/he shared with us.
Forestamtul - why would you bother posting something like that here? This is for comments about the song/video; see down here where it says: Comment on this video...
It would be worth you reconsidering your texts before you post for the entire world to see.
Forestamtul - why would you post something like that on here? This is for comments about the song. I'm fairly certain there are a wealth of online forums available to you if you feel inclined to post comments about yourself.
I remember this song as a child, It was one of those songs you heard on the radio all the time, But years later it reminds you of your childhood....It took me nearly 25 years to track this down. Awesome.
@MisterAdaggioChile me too..all I could remember is 'we are perfect', though I could remember the melody..must have hummed it to about 20 of my mates, who obviously looked at me like I was crazy :)
Mirrors is a beautiful song from the wonderful album Water Bearer. If you liked this song you will love the album. Her subsequent album Easy was equally fine.
I remember so clearly the first time I heard this song. A friend was visiting me in my room in halls of residence, and we were about to go out. The radio was on. I was going to switch it off, and heard this song. I could not believe how perfect it was. A bit of an epiphany.
I remembered this song when it was in the charts. I was only a child at the time. I never remember it being this jazzy though!Both me and my sister used to try and copy her with the white dress, I think we did a slightly more virginal rendition!!
This song is very special for me. At that time (1979) i wasn't even born, but when I had the opportuniy to listen to this, it comes to my heart, and still there until now.
Lovely song always reminds me of starting on the Railway in 1979 Jan 15th, sounds sad but am still on almost 30 years on, wonder what she looks like now.
God I was 12. I loved this, reminds me of cold frosty mornings on my way to school and getting laughed at for having a hair cut. How I wish i could go back to them days.
"Today' she's heavily into alternative medicine" says the caption. What a shock that is. I think she went forward in time and stole this from Tori Amos (Silent All These Years)
You know what's funny? The vibrato she uses in her singing very much resembles the vibrato brother Mike uses in his guitar-playing! I have no clue what kind of a woman Mama Oldfield was, but she gave to the world two extraordinarily gifted kids. May you rest in peace, Darling!
krikey., wuz there a time when we were so hopeful and able to believe that 'we are mirrors and we brightly shine.....'.. what happened, yallz??? Mebbe its our call.......
Thank you so much for posting it. I have searched for her songs here for awhile and couldn't find anything. I remember this record that accompanied me in Israel (who found it there?) during my late teens, and always loved it. I don't know if I can even find it now on CD.
This record was a Classic.. I love it, remember seeing it on Blue peter i think in late 70's.. during the 90's the CD's i would buy were the £5 pound ones with 70's hits on this is where i rediscovered gems like this ! pure magic The 90's never had the same majic ! pitty !
this song brings back memories of a time that had less hassle and was a time for fun, i was lucky to be in my late teens at that time and life was fun
