It seems that I have finally found GOD! It is Mike Oldfield! He is the one!
And the goddess is Hayley Westenra! Amazing they are, amazing their performance is, and their music...it is magnificent, beautiful and breathtaking! :-)
I can sing this, however tears swell in my eyes towards in the end. A powerful incredible piece of music . If I died tomorrow I'd want this song to sing me out X
God damn that is gorgeous!!!! I am disappointed that the sheep in my country (usa) are cloth eared nincompoops!!!! They can only recognise and appreciate plastic money machine music. And thats just music. Lets not attempt to discuss how the world works or who made the sun!!! Aslan help me, I'm surrounded by dufflepuds.....
THANKYOU MIKE for giving us such beautiful music and peace of mind!!!!!
Mike is right, Hayley is the best voice for this particular piece of music. Not surprisingly as she sings everything beautifully and he has always chosen his vocalists and musicians wisely. Maggie Reilly, Anita Hegerland, Bonnie Tyler (!), Pierre Moerlan, etc. I really hope these two collaborate some more in the future, two of the very best at what they do.
WHAT a treat to find Hayley Westenra and Mike Oldfield peforming together! Does it get any better?!?!?!? Too short, but nevertheless... this is bliss...
I'm ganna play this song at my wedding, or funeral! it made me cry cos my mum tld me that she imagined me singing this. it made me cry so mych and i was just like, .....mum, can i have a tissue lol!
Though it doesn't seem possible, Hayley keeps getting better. I can't think of anyone performing today who can match her in this kind of haunting, mysterious vocal. She must be the most under-utilized mega talent in the music industry.
On my heart The nights are drawing in Above, the stars are spiralling And Heaven, Earth are roaming in a spin Memories of light and laughter Hope and peace from far here after Oh in heaven, wings of angels from a dream On my heart The nights are drawing in Above, the stars are spiralling And Heaven, Earth are roaming in a spin
I'm a huge Oldfield-Fan for more than 25 years... he made about 25 albums with totally different kinds of music (classical, rock, folk, electronic and mixtures of them all). Some albums are spectacular, others more for relaxation. Fantastic are for example the new album 'Music Of The Spheres' (classical orchestral work), 'The Songs Of Distant Earth' (electronic, kind of space symphony), 'Tubular Bells II' (New Age/Rock/Folk/...).

Don't forget Ommadawn (maybe his best work), Hergest Ridge(hearing 90 guitars at the same time is intersting), Incantations, and by many loved and many cursed Amarok (probably the most unique album ever).
sugarpuffsandwich; if you like this then of all the Oldfield albums you might get on with 'Hergest Ridge', 'Ommadawn' and perhaps his previously most orchestral piece; 'Incantations'.
Well, my favourite is Amarok, The Song of DIstant Earth, and of course Tubular Bells (1, 2). Other albusm are also great, however i never liked Millenium Bell :-) Voyager is amazing as well :)
