Great technical musical execution. Love the monastic chant and harpsichord patch. Beautifully played and produced music. Great sweeping arrangement. And the guitars well, they are great.

I'm not familiar with the 'original', so this is it for me. Can't imagine the Mike Oldfield version being any better than this 'masterpiece'. I'm a little in awe of your combined talents. ;)
Great remake of an old take - with special touches of music improvements that enrich the original intention. Truly super collab, Michael and Bobby. Please continue to do more of this type of world class co-productions!!!!! And thanks for the download of this wonderful song.

My hands down favourite on the night - and that's saying something - the bar was set dizzyingly high by all. I don't know the original and I probably won't seek it out - it won't beat this. I play this over and over in the car on my way to and from work every day and never tire of it. It's been a while since I looked forward to going home just so I could listen to a piece of music, but this does it for me. No words enough. Absolute belter.

When you and Bobby get together it's nothing short of magnificent :) Never heard the original, doubt it could possibly compare, so I won't!!!

Very cool song, that insane guitar is great, and really created an interesting atmosphere. That part at 2:35 goes off like an alarm on a peaceful lake and then that weird guitar surfaces like some monster.
