Pour moi aussi, comme vous tous, les meilleurs moments de ma jeunesse, saisis dans leur élan par cette musique incroyable, énorme, sensible, visionnaire, subtile. Merci Mike.

[@LaurenceALLINIEU]

Tout à fait d'accord, Mike est un génie, rien n'a été fait de semblable de nos jours. Ses morceaux sont de l'art majeur comme du baroque ou classique. Je l'ai connu avec Maggie Reilly, Foreign Affair, To France, Familly Man... Quand j'ai découvert Omadown, Taurus, Tubular Bells... Je suis restée toutes oreilles tendues vers ce monde magique, il est un compositeur d'exception ! Merci pour ton commentaire in french, ça fait du bien car les français que je connais n'ont jamais entendu son nom, même avec Moonlight Shadows qu'on a pourtant souvent entendu à l'époque.

[@darkxander94]

On en parle du climax de fin de notre chère Mike qui reste juste incroyable même encore aujourd'hui, je m'en lasse pas si il y a bien quelques chose que je regrette quand j'écoute ce morceau, c'est que j'ai pas connu l'âge d'or de ommadown j'était pas né mais ça n'empêche pas d'apprécier cette musique incroyable.

Ommaddawn is an unique masterpiece, soulful, unearthly and simply timeless! His best performance for my opinion.

In particular, the section from 9:12 to 9:46 takes me back to Sigiriya, Sri Lanka in September 1982. I had just climbed to the top of Lion Rock and was blown away by the vista of the surrounding countryside spread out before me. I swear I could hear this section playing in my head. Unforgettable.

[@gunnarfritsche]

Als ich 15 Jahre alt war, kam das Album raus als 4-fach- Schallplattenalbum "Boxed" mit unter anderem Ommadawn Part one and two. Weil es damals für mein Taschengeld zu teuer war nahm ich es von meinem besten Freund mit Kassettenrecorder auf. Die Songs hörte ich abends und nachts unter meiner Bettdecke. Immer dann, wenn ich Stress mit meinen Eltern oder Freundin hatte hörte ich Ommadawn und heulte mich aus. Heute höre ich Ommadawn über spotify... ...aber heulen tu ich immer noch. Und jetzt bin ich 60!

[@bktadventures2878]

[@nikolaus9504]

Oh ja! Das kenn ich! Bei mir fing es mit Tubular Bells an, als ich 17 war. Heute bin ich 65, und mindestens 3x die Woche versuche ich, die Parts auf meiner Klampfe hin zu kriegen und schreibe immer noch an Geschichten , die in Landschaften spielen, zu denen mich die Musik inspiriert hat.

[@johnbruce2868]

YT stopped displaying the number of dislikes (except to the publisher) of all videos as a means of protecting and excluding pro-DEI subjects from online criticism. Such criticism was deemed hateful. The intention was to make DEI subjects inclusive and free from criticism. As all negative comments were considered potentially hateful, they were all suppressed and cancelled. Brave New World!

[@samwiseterminator]

It feels like some of his melodies are tapping into my subconscious, into ancestral memories. Sounds that my mind somehow already knew, despite being a relative newcomer to this genius' compositions.

I am 84 yeara old, an arch Conservative, an unreconstructed MCP. old fashioned as hell, proudly wearing the coat that my Victorian father wore by being critical of everything that the young did and every idea that they had but happily own up to Ommadawn being the only CD that I have ever bought. I live in Thailand and when I go upcountry on one of my regular visits to visit family members the CD is always in the glove box. Soon after my arrival, the word goes around the village that Papa Farang (foreigner) has arrived and the village kids gather around the pick-up and patiently wait as I open the doors and windows of my little truck and insert the CD into the player. They gyrate and jump up and down when the music commences their movements hardly qualifying to be called a dance . Lately some of the village ladies have attended and it is some sight to see the well upholstered ones shuffling around is a sight to behold. Next time I intend to bring some Pink Floyd for them to sample.

[@LaurenceALLINIEU]

Thanks for your interesting comment ! You should be 86 today, I hope you feel good in Thailand ? There is no age to love this master piece and all Mike Oldfield music, it's major art like classical music, magnifique (in french). I love Pink Floyd too, it's huge ! I was 18 when I knew Mike with Maggie Reilly first, I love to France, today I'm 59 and it's still my favorite music, Tubular Bells, Taurus, The Lake...Love too Baroque, Bach, Vivaldi... Temperence

[@Coneman3]

I used to love this when I was 14 in the early 80s. Since then I cannot get into it the same (still like it but it was like so intense when I was younger) but part 2 I can. I think you have to be living in pain to really appreciate it, but maybe that's just me, then. Part 2 is like a different piece to me, the start of part 2 is one of my favourite pieces ever. It feels like Mike is putting everything on the line in the hope of being understood, anyone else feel the same? Like a primal cry from the heart, very little music is as intense.
