Tubular Bells
Mike Oldfield
This album is pretty fantastically whimsical, like, it has SERIOUS adhd. Sometimes it feels like it's the score to a fantasy anime and other times the score to that one nick cage movie where he has to steal all the cars for the mafia in only 3 days (aka I really like this album). I'm usually kinda bored w/ instrumentals but this is really fun, engaging, and never boring. Also, that bit where the guy seductively says "slightly distorted guitaaaahs" lives rent free in my brain>:)
Other notes:
-the electric guitar coming in in the first song was hype
-second song did get a bit annoying around the 5 minute mark tbh
-11:50 mark in song 2 had me giggling
-third song (Tubular Bells Theme) was a fun time even if it did sound like a tinkerbell movie
-Sailors hornpipe was a TRIP.
-all my comments on how it sounded like a score make sense now as it turns out it was used as such in the 1973 film "the Exorcist"
