Tubularman Group: Awaiting Authorisation Posts: 2304 Joined: June 2004 Posted: Aug. 26 2004, 20:33 Well... that i know he sings all the songs on the heavens open album. You know.. Gimme back, no dream, heavens open and the other songs. I do think hes singing on the crises album. The vocals to crises part watcher and the tower. + hes singing  pictures in the dark and horseback from ommadawn... I maybe think hes with the song "Five miles out" too. That all i can remember by now -------------- Mike Oldfield M i x e s https://soundcloud.com/tubularman Back to top

Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: Aug. 27 2004, 07:06 You're mostly correct. But he doesn't sing in Pictures In The Dark, as far as I recall. It's Barry Palmer, but Mike mimed his vocals on the video. But it's him on Five Miles Out and Crises. -------------- Check out http://ferniecanto.com.br for all my music, including my latest albums: Don't Stay in the City, Making Amends and Builders of Worlds.

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: Aug. 27 2004, 08:08 Pictures In The Dark has been a hotly discussed topic in the past...I think we all came to the conclusion that the voice at the end is Mike. The other male vocals are Barry Palmer, though. Mike does some vocals on Mistake too, and of course he sang the original Sally together with Nico Ramsden. He does some singing elsewhere on Platinum as well. There are some vocals of his on Ommadawn (though neither those parts, nor those on Platinum really count as songs), aside from On Horseback. Maya Gold could also be counted, I suppose. Then of course, there's Speak (tho' you only say farewell)...and Rite Of Man... Back to top

Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: Aug. 27 2004, 09:21 A doubt - on Platinum part 2, does he do all the vocals, or someone helps him out? Those vocals are the best, I can't believe I missed them. -------------- Check out http://ferniecanto.com.br for all my music, including my latest albums: Don't Stay in the City, Making Amends and Builders of Worlds.

Megz Group: Members Posts: 29 Joined: Sep. 2004 Posted: Oct. 01 2004, 04:08 Has MO sung "Shadow on the Wall" at all? (I remember hearing Dad say he had, but he could be wrong) Back to top

Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: Oct. 01 2004, 06:59 Perhaps in an early demo take? I don't know, but as far as I'm aware, no released version of the song has Mike on vocals. But don't trust me too much for that kind of stuff. -------------- Check out http://ferniecanto.com.br for all my music, including my latest albums: Don't Stay in the City, Making Amends and Builders of Worlds.
