    I have always appreciated the irony in the fact that, after all the great singers who have appeared on his records, my favorite Mike Oldfield pop vocal track is one he sung himself.

    I can't believe Mike sang this. In his autobiography he was talking about the recording of this and how he felt he was just not a good singer. He is fab!!!

    • @marcosramos9081
      @marcosramos9081 2 роки тому +8

      I love when Mike sing, maybe even more than any other artist who sang for his records but I think he refers that to get this vocals he work so much, even Tom Newman said that almost every phrase is from different takes

    • @kokovocals
      @kokovocals 2 роки тому +5

      Love the song’s message. Perhaps Marcos Ramos is right: that he felt uncomfortable with his voice because he lacked ease and technique. You wouldn’t know that from hearing it, but as a vocal coach, I can hear a bit of tongue root tension that may have made things difficult for him. Still sounds great, though!

    • @mrb.5610
      @mrb.5610 Рік тому +2

      Don't know why - I think he has a great voice on this track !

    • @mikosoft
      @mikosoft Рік тому

      Well you can hear his vocal is not as refined as other singers he worked with. It sounds as he's straining and his dynamics is all over the place.

    This song has from 1995 been one I put on when getting ready to leave for examination at the hospital, and once where I had to get an operation which included full anaesthesia, two journeys to North America, and several times where I changed jobs.
    Change is unnerving, innit? -Fly right in!

    This is that vision
    Out on the world's edge

    Great performance from Reginald Beckwith with his cane & 'give it some welly!' gestures & critical feedback. Accusing GINGER BAKER of playing in a chamber orchestra & not giving enough beat. Wow!
    Absolutely stonking song & sound. Can't believe the Graham Bond Organisation didn't become much more successful. This jazz-influenced R&B rocks! Sad end for Graham Bond at just 36. One hell of a Hammond wizard.

    This must have been an early mix, with different lyrics and guitar parts to the final version on the album. The video had to lipsync with the lyrics, so it had to stay with the early version, but I think the album version ended up being much better. Bit of a weird video too, I guess this was a difficult time for Mike and he just needed something done quickly?

    • @LaIsladeAvalon
      @LaIsladeAvalon 4 роки тому +3

      No puedes juzgar la calidad de sus videos con los ojos de hoy... Esos videos eran muy avanzados en su tiempo. En algunos casos, como los de Island, utilizó ya programas informáticos en su realización, cosa que aun no se hacia por la mayoría de la gente. Han envejecido claro... Aunque en este caso... al ser básicamente dibujos.. casi no lo ha echo, hoy se utiliza este tipo de técnica, dibujos. Wen fin, en cualquier caso lo importante es su música, que si que parece no pasar el tiempo por la mayoría de sus temas.

    The later version ( ua-cam.com/video/1kT0ShC0w98/v-deo.html ) has cleaner vocals and is arranged better, but I also like the gritty guitar in this original version.
