    I`ve been looking for this song for over 30 years. This melody haunted me, accompanied me, surprised me at times, all of sudden on random or special occasions. I tried describing it to people, looking for it on youtube, whistling it to shazzam and soundhound, asking if someone knows the tune. Never found out its name. It must have made a tremendous impression on me as a kid when I watched this brilliant movie with my older brothers, and then forgot about it throughout the years. Now, after all that time, by accident, I watch this genious Kubrick movie..And there it is. I`m absolutely overwhelmed and mesmerized by the sheer beauty of that song and the memories of my late father and the good, old family times we`ve had in the 90`s. Thank you universe for bringing this song back to me in one of the most hellish weeks of my life. Greetings to all of you who have been equally mesmerized by this beautiful, ethereal, Irish tune. Cheers

      Le moins connu ? En 1976 * et les années suivantes, peut-être dans les pays anglo-saxon où sa diffusion avait été peu regardée en salle.
      Mais en Europe continentale, non ! il a eu un certain succès et même il est aujourd'hui un film culte comme 2001 Odyssée de l'espace.
      *Je l'ai vu à sa première sortie en salle en 1976, ça fait longtemps 😢

      Needs no qualifiers Scotsman. I agree with you. A Wonderful study of the Human Condition with Probably the most Beautiful Cinematography ever in a Motion Picture. I have always been a Gladiator,Fury,Heat,No Country for Old men,Godfather type of guy. But I became a Kubrick Convert after seeing 2001,ACO,Spartacus,Lolita,FMJ. His characters are so Genuine. Good people,Bad people,Indifferent People. Power Hungry or Humble. They speak for themselves through actions not words. Of course the Dialogue of BL is excellent,the parts without speak without saying. Only one I have not seen is EWS. My lady and I will view that this St Valentine's. My mother's antecedents hail from Middle Scotland. The Chalmers. They came over in the 1840s and 50s
