I have been obsessed with the original for many years now. I play it regularly, as well as many other Mike Os songs. I'm nearly 70 and disabled and very ill, but still get so much joy from listening to music. This song touched my soul on the first play, it will not be the last, shedding a few tears means I'm still alive.
@matthiaskluth2645 Thank you so much for your kind words, I have played this song at least once everyday, sometimes more. I love Mike Oldfield's music and have traveled throughout Europe and the UK to see him live. Barry Palmer sang the original song, but this version has something else. I likewise hope you can listen to this song for many years to come 👍❤️👍
This is a beautiful and so,so sad song that Mike Oldfield has dedicated to his mother,God bless her soul,thank her for giving us such an angelic author,her son,Mike. This song version,after decades and decades,still brings some new tunes and different singing that makes everyone shiver. True emotions get old as gold does!
This was a brilliant and unexpected version of one of my favourite Oldfield songs. I always wished that Barry would have done more collaborations with Mike. This was a real gift for the fans. Thanks! Now........ Don't forget to do a hardcore brutal rock version of Poison Arrows!
First, the whole production is exemplary, a delight to hear. And Barry, your performance was astonishing... delivery, range, strength, tone, pitch... Even being middle-aged, you've still got it!
This kind of Crime Of Passion song is really great. So soulful. Thank you Barry and Robert.❤👍👍👍 Barry Palmer is absolutely the best singer that has ever sung with Mike Oldfield! Not only Barry's very good voice, but vocally he fitted so well to the sound, harmony and musical style of Mike Oldfield. Just perfect.
Bonsoir merci pour vos tubes depuis le début je vous écoute vos chansons sont tous une comme les autres des pépites petit message d une fan de France 🇫🇷
This is a favourite that I had completely forgotten about since it was first released. I recently heard the phrase "second-sight" and it slowly came back to me over a few days of nagging at my memory. I have enjoyed it again all these years later. This is an excellent rendition of the song! Very well done!
I love this song, it's always been one of my favourite Mike Oldfield songs, Barry's voice was perfect for the original recording - it sort of paved the way for songs like "Moonlight Shadow". Love this 'mature' version. Beautiful arrangement.
The first time I heard this version was 2 days ago, I can't stop singing it now, and watching the amazing heart touching video Barry and Rob have made, thank you both for making lots of fans very happy ❤
I can see half a lifetime, of the artist transcending both time and fashion. In a throwaway World we've been given a sign, aiding and adding in a silent passion
At 67 years old , I still love this "fantastic" track, even bought the 45 single!when still a teenager this is music at it,s peak of performance still gives me a "thrill" every time I play it , masterpeice is not the word !! congratulations on your "retirement" mike, I beat you by two years!!!
Addendum to the original message now at 69 years oldtwo years on, this still holds so much "magic" for me this ones a "classic " in it,s own right ! I have memories that trigger me into total past experience , bless you Mike, 💗🎉🎉🎉......
Yeah! That's really Great! Rock it, Barry! I love that song in that key too and in a slower version. Even if Barry wasn't initially fond of that song, 40 years later He still proves what a great tune it is.
Love it! This is a more mellow and reflective version that actually suits the song very well. This song always has had a special place in my heart for personal reasons.
One of my favorites those days ! I remember how I was moved by Barry’s voice ! Now after all those years arranged bit different as also the song came into its years , beautiful !
This Version of Crime of Passion is so moving, I‘m in tears

... I've heard that is a song dedicated to an Oldfield cousin that commited suicide at the age of 19 . She was called Elisabeth Jane.
Beautiful version of this Oldfield classic
This was a brilliant and unexpected version of one of my favourite Oldfield songs. I always wished that Barry would have done more collaborations with Mike. This was a real gift for the fans. Thanks! Now........ Don't forget to do a hardcore brutal rock version of Poison Arrows!
Tienes toda la razón pero preferiría una versión de To france o prisión arrows
First, the whole production is exemplary, a delight to hear. And Barry, your performance was astonishing... delivery, range, strength, tone, pitch... Even being middle-aged, you've still got it!
This kind of Crime Of Passion song is really great. So soulful. Thank you Barry and Robert.❤👍👍👍

The best male singer, there's no doubt about that.
@@paullavan3097 Thanks
Well I agree but, Roger Chapman and Jon Anderson are really good as well! And I remember Adrian Belew in the song Holy from de Earth moving record.
@@josearqco That's correct. Thanks😊👍
Loved this track as a seven year old. Today, 40 years later, I'm still there. This version really captures the song's emotion. Thank you guys! ❤
My God. Thank you Barry.
En France aussi on aime Mike Oldfield depuis plus de 40 ans ! egalement ses interpretes feminins ou masculins ! quel genie ❤
Barrys Stimme hat nix an Faszination verloren und Robs Verständnis, wie der Song funktioniert ist unglaublich 😂❤
Unvergessen Barry Palmer .Eine wunderschöne Version ,diese Stimme von Barry Palmer
I love the originals, but this bloody made me cry. Beautiful voice. Never would have guessed the song could be made to work this way. Slower, deeper.
MR. Barry Palmer is a great vocalist I grew up listening to his songs.A big big respect for a great artist
This version is much more connected to the lyrics. Amazing ❤
This it's a love letter to the original song 🎵 ❤️ ♥️
Bonsoir merci pour vos tubes depuis le début je vous écoute vos chansons sont tous une comme les autres des pépites petit message d une fan de France 🇫🇷
A forgotten song! In the 90s the song, originally by Mike Oldfield, was often played on the german radio. a dream song 🥰
Mike Oldfield writing one of the most beautiful songs ever written 😘
That was a great updated version of a Mike Oldfield classic, well done Robert and Barry.
VERY VERY VERY DEEEEP EMOTIONAL VERSION of that ICONIC Song........I think MIKE OLDFIELD AGREES WITH THAT TURN......THANKS GENTLEMAN!!!!
This is a favourite that I had completely forgotten about since it was first released. I recently heard the phrase "second-sight" and it slowly came back to me over a few days of nagging at my memory. I have enjoyed it again all these years later.

Nur ein Wort " wunderschön"
I love this song, it's always been one of my favourite Mike Oldfield songs, Barry's voice was perfect for the original recording - it sort of paved the way for songs like "Moonlight Shadow". Love this 'mature' version. Beautiful arrangement.
Brilliant and touching...wow!!
Would like to know if Mike thinks the same...I miss him so much
Toujours la même magie dans la voix. Toujours la même émotion dans la musique. Toujours le même bonheur à l'écoute.
Et oui un morceau incroyable qu'on écoute en boucle encore aujourd'hui.
Il figure sur l'album remasterisé de Crises
barry palmer,roland orzabal,brian ferry;etc...malgré le temps qui passe tous ces chanteurs nous font vibrer avec leur voix caractéristiques
La voix de Barry Palmer est tellement sensuelle même avec le temps qui passe ,j adore !❤
Ever again a wunderful feeling hearing the song and especially this special version! Thank you Barry and Rob for the great work!
What sensational and fantastic version !!! One of my favorite of Mike Oldfield ...true emotion....
Thank you very much Barry and Rob. Big man in tears here. Thank you MGO 💚💚💚
What a gorgeous take on a well-loved classic. Very moving! 👏👏👏

he sings out of my soul, great job Mr. Palmer
Brilliant, deeply touching! Thanks for this! It was a brilliant idea to sing it again! As younger and older version!
What a brilliant version 👏🏻

What a beautiful surprise !
Bonsoir je vous remercie très belle interprétation que de souvenirs petit coucou de la France ❤
Not easy to make it better than the original...you guys made it...amazing and touching
Totally agree. The original is pop and catchy. This is profound and gives more meaning to the lyrics. Wonderful.
Bellissima canzone. Questa versione la trovo ancora più bella della prima versione del 1984
Love it! This is a more mellow and reflective version that actually suits the song very well. This song always has had a special place in my heart for personal reasons.
me too my friend , say no more!
Han hecho falta 40 años para madurar una gran versión de esta gran canción. Gracias!
Lovely version. Great to hear that Barry's voice is still there. If somebody had told me this was a reworking by Mike I wouldn't have doubted it.
Tout simplement magnifique. Que d émotion. Merci Barry pour cette interprétation
❤Que hermosa versión, el señor Barry Palmer canta con menos voz pero más dulce y suave, felicidades.
It's so great, ❤ Barry and Rob!!!
Una gran versión, de una gran canción, de grandes artistas. Grande!!!!!!!!!
wonderful version of one of the best song (if not the best..) of mister Oldfield.
oh, great Robert, we are so longingly waiting for a concert from you in Germany
Wow, just shows how good the writing of the song by Mr. O and the delivery by Barry Palmer
Excellent Barry ! A very nice version of a top top song
One of my favorites those days ! I remember how I was moved by Barry’s voice ! Now after all those years arranged bit different as also the song came into its years , beautiful !
This is absolutely wonderful. A fabulous version of the song. Well done and thank you for sharing 👌❤️🎶
The sound and production is incredible, sounds so professional
Hatıralar, gözyaşları geri gelmeyecek güzel günler...
Wow! Fantastic cover of a classic track, actually this is the best I've heard!
Lo que no quiso expresar mike, lo has dado con todo el corazòn. Emocionante.
The original is just brilliant ….. this is different and superb
Thank you
A very nice version, and as many says: a tribute to the original, with elements from classic instrumental Oldfield. Love it!
A really lovely version which actually enhances the original. I would say it lights up the best of the song and leaves out the unnecessary trimmings.
Impresionante cuanto más la oigo más me gusta .Barry perfecto . La guitarra perfecta todo es una maravilla
È chiaro che questa canzone senza Barry Palmer non sarebbe la stessa,uno dei 100 migliori brani di sempre❤
Just Wow...Beautiful rendition of a wonderful song...just wish Mike was there.
Perfect! Love this version
Holy shit. One of my favourite pieces in that beautiful version. GODDAMN SHIVERS. I love you Barry
One of my absolute favourite songs! I would not have expected to find such a recent version of it! Interesting adaption, very dynamic and moving.
That was really lovely. Brings back so many happy memories. Interesting hearing it in another key.
Yea, that’s a really nice version
Grande, siempre, Barry Palmer
I would be curious if you both would arrange „tricks of the light „ into today !
Wow. What an amazing interpretation.
A grossly under rated singer performing a similarly considered song, brilliantly. Loved the Oldfield mix and this is as good.
Wow... just wow
thanks for another great piece Rob, and Barry I´ll never forget: "They didn't know the words, but they knew how to sing...!"
Masterpiece 🎼
simply wonderful
It makes me very nostalgic
Lovely interpretation of this song. Class.
Fantastic. Thank You Very Much!
