Cuando me vienen malos tiempos siempre recurro a Mike para subirme el ánimo... desde los 7 años me enamore de su música concretamente con Amarok. Genio eterno... Leyenda viva
My mother played us Amarok when my bro and I were very young --no much older than 5 or 6. Mike was one of our best friends and I started to know him properly this year, Maybe this is the soundtrack of this year for me. Muchas gracias, amigo Mike lml!
The end of this album gives me chills and has to be played loud, I have it on tape and played it so often the tape broke, I was able to repair it, but since got it on Ipod, one of my favourites😁
the broadness of prog, admittedly, may never make it to the utmost public market but... most may agree that those who make such a discovery will fall right into it should they ever venture willingly enough.
Is that right? I actually had no idea. I bought the album for one song and that was Moonlight Shadows but somehow, i grew to love the entire album itself. So maybe it was meant to be unlikable and unmarketable, but for me personally, his plan failed. In the end of the day it is all a matter of opinion. It doesn't matter to me if some people hate the album as everyone has their own preferences when it comes to music and i can sincerely say i respect that. Just as i respect your opinion on this album ^ ^
@@nicolassurmal2632 Nah, it's true I think. I've read it a few times. Don't have a particular source but it's out there. He was angry with Virgin who he was locked into a long contract with. He felt they didn't support him properly as an artist and just wanted to squeeze money out of him. They had previously pushed him to recreate the success of Moonlight Shadow with more pop songs and now they wanted Tubular Bells 2. He refused to give them that and instead purposefully made an album with only one track where the music changed so frequently that you couldn't even cut a single out of it. He also included FUCK OFF RB in morse code as a message to Richard Branson. After his next album Mike was free of Virgin and moved to Warner Brothers... and the first thing he did was give them Tubular Bells 2, the huge money maker that he had denied Virgin.
