DarkenedEdo Group: Musicians Posts: 124 Joined: May 2003 Posted: Sep. 29 2005, 21:04 Someone got to tell me why he made this song. I will duplicate the cd without this track. It's impossible to listen to. All the rest is nice, but i'm still waiting to the return of the real Mike Oldfield. He's still the number one for me, and i'm very sad about his musical crises. It seems to me he's tired. The arrangement are made quickly, using a lot of preset sounds and ready-to-use loops. I think it depends on the new studio setup. I know i'll have the entire forum against me, but this is my thought. And, i repeat, don't forget Mike is my favourite musicians. Anyway, dear Mike, thanks for this album, and many many thanks especially for Angelique and Our Father (i was tired to throw keys to the birds only to listen to it). Musically talking, you're "Our Father". -------------- www.edoardofainello.com :::: www.fayeth.com :::: www.myspace.com/kahman Back to top

But this is not the first bad album if i can say it like that. Have some forgot  the horrible earth moving? I think this album is the worst. Light and shade is better and more better! I think L + S is better than Millenium bell and voyager, heavens open, killing fields, incantations... I think and now that he will do i much better in the next album. I have a feel that it will come next year actually. I dont think hes career is over at all. Most of them i know love this album. He gets more new fans now. (here in norway and my friends, is them i mean) This is new for him and the next cd will be better.. -------------- Mike Oldfield M i x e s https://soundcloud.com/tubularman Back to top

Haven't heard the whole album yet so can't comment further but I have heard 6 tracks in full and I like this. -------------- I hate getting up early. I didn't even realise there were two 6 o'clocks in one day! Back to top
