FabianBajorat - I think you are right, he went off the rails for a good while not a peep out of him then he came back with a BLAST......The man is pure genius!
besides of the lyrics not being the very best - this "saved by the bell" does he mean that he was saved by the success of Tubular Bells, here?
If i'm right he suffered from depression before and/or after Tubular Bells hit the ether with such a success...any hardcore fans who might know this? thanks
The lyrics aren't the best, most of Mike's songs that involve lyrics are the same. I think Mike thinks that the singing is just another instrument (which, really, it is) which he takes litaerly. But still, this is one of my most favourite Oldfield songs. Great album. ^^
That's right, Barry Palmer sand lead vocals on three Triumvirat albums (Old LovesDie Hard, Pompeii and half of Ala carte); LONG LIVE THE GREAT BARRY PALMER!!
Never really heard this one before and I like to think of myself as an Olfield fan. Great refrain - the lyrics, well, I blame the eighties. But its kind of cute.
lol.. read a book if the content is so important to you. Most people listens to music because it sounds good. Or would you explain to me why "o-zone - dragostea din tei" was the best selling track all across europe? Was that because of the lyrics? Think you should realise that you are the big idiot here
Ouuuuuuuuuuuuaiiiiiiiiiiiiis ma jeunesse ....mes 17 ans....et mon Papa chéri déjà malade...Merci cousin Philou pour m'avoir emmené au concert de Mike Oldfield ...à Cologne....et puis de m'avoir offert le disque vynyl pour ma Noël
¡Dios, este tema me emociona hasta las lágrimas! Encima la letra es tan... tocante, profética. Uno de mis tantas canciones preferidas del Sr. Oldfield. Excelente la voz de Barry Palmer.
Nice to see another Oldfield fan! Love this video but in my opinion it would be much better without the text. Any chance of doing a text free version?
Thank you, actually I have made this vid couple of hours during my freetime, mostly in the night, it was a good relax, when I came back from work. It's only my second one just after Poison Arrows.

Great! The song is even better in concert. Mike improves the song and the result is amazing. See the concert in Viareggio, for example and enjoy!

If I'm not mistaken, singer Barry Palmer was the lead singer for the progressive rock band from Germany, Triumvirat.

I can't explain myself how an artist who produced so many jewels ended producing very bad electro music.
JazzAd 3 years ago
The record is 20-something years old, Jazz, it was heard with the heart, as all of Oldfield's music. He is the creator of electro-music.
EPJM1750 3 years ago
I guess I wasn't clear in my comment.
I think Saved by a Bell is a fantastic song.
However, I am not a fan of what Mike Oldfield produces these days. I find his current work in poor taste, badly produced and too easy listening.
The founding fathers of electro music can be found elsewhere IMHO.
