But yes, I know where you're coming from, it doesn't sound as final as the ending to, say, Amarok where it comes to a huge climax...it just fades off to a gentle end, perhaps to return...

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: June 07 2002, 16:02 I ordered it from amazon.de...it arrived on the 5th - a lot quicker than I expected, in fact. I did the same with The Millennium Bell DVD - I think that arrived about a month before Warner got their act together with the UK release. A downside of doing it is that it messes up sales figures - if everyone in the UK buys from abroad, the record company may assume that Mike's stuff isn't popular in the UK, which will just make the situation worse...I would imagine that the number of buyers doing that is relatively small at the moment, though. How did I become an administrator? Well, it all started when Olivier was trying to conjure Mike Oldfield out of a hat. He put on his fez, waved his magic wand and...*ping*...just like that...disappointingly, Mike Oldfield failed to materialise (though I think he's in there, just the opening in the hat is too small for him to come out of) but the administrator tag became mysteriously attached to my name...

But you have to get Mike out of the hat, otherwise he won't be able to make any more music! Oliver, a familiar fez to some... -------------- Hergest Ridge 165 - Ommadawn 038 - Incantations 243 Back to top

I really like the reprise, it does bring the album to a nice close, and there is a lot more guitar than some other songs. -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top
