Hi.Someone mentioned a while back that they can hear someone playing what sounds like someone playing Saved By The Bell on the piano in the french embassy on the Killing Fields.Can't find the thread now but i was watching my copy last night and bugger me there it is.If it isn't then it's spookily like it!What do you guys think.If you need times let me know and i'll check it out.

Just as long as they`re not singing the words to it as well while they`re playing that piano.Surely a big contender for the worst Mike Oldfield lyrics ever.Just a real cringe fest for me I`m sorry.Plus all that bell,hell,tell,well buisness in the chorus.Man he certainly gave that old rhyming dictionary some hammer coming up with those babies.Shame because the track before it on the album(Talk About Your Life)is one of my favourite Mike songs ever.Music & Lyrics.

Btw Caveman sorry to come over all oafish pedantic here but it`s actualy Saved By A Bell.Where as Saved By The Bell is the title of that God awful American tv show set in a plywood kindergarten.Either that or a mental hospital I was never quite sure myself!?In retrospect though perhaps Saved By The Bell would make a pretty good title for a book about Mike`s career.

Err anyway I can`t help you with the film stuff sorry.It was actualy on the tv here a few weeks ago and I saw about five minutes of it.My wife tends to be the bastion of the remote control in this house so I did`nt really have much choice in the matter unfortantly even if I`d wanted to watch it.."Oooh look at him"..she said when she recognised it was Sam Waterson the guy out of Law & Order.And then she flicked it over to Celebrity Z Factor Kitchen Insomniacs or something of that ilk,and then I probably took the dog out.

I realised i'd got the title wrong after i'd sent it.Opps.Agree with you about the song though.Not one of his best.The lyrics are a little.....er.....naff is the best word i think. :laugh:
