Super cool song that provides a very nice atmosphere.
This album was a big part of my childhood.The build up to 4:16 still gives me goose bumps and tears in my eyes

From now until November 1, the Day of the Dead, Soundtrack Sunday will be dedicated to the best of horror soundtracks...and what better score to start with than the theme from The Exorcist...Mike Oldfield's 'Tubular Bells'!?! Enjoy, and peace out...

I know everyone will think I'm a Mojo-reading twat for saying this, but I bought the 5.1 mix of Tubular Bells the other day and it sounds fabulous.
Why did I resist for so long?!

40 yrs ago today, Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells" hit #1 in the UK. It's a long, beautiful slow burn of a piece, that deserves at last to be stripped of its horror-film associations. Sit back and enjoy!
Is this piece of music creepy because it was used in the intro to The Exorcist? Or is The Exorcist made creepier by the music? A #Jamoween chicken/egg conundrum for you there.
