Tubular Bells was a stand alone piece of music used for The Exorcist and was not written for it. It was Virgin records first album and made the money that the whole of Richard Branson's empire was founded on
my mom had nightmares for years over watching it in the theatres when it came out, at the time it was ahead of its time in horror movies, now a classic
Talk about it, alot of audience fleeing the cinema due to its content graphic nature. It was banned in alot of countries and places, released later dates a very few places were screening it, thats why it's the best #1 in horror hall of fame. Linda Blair so courageous to take on such a role, which later after the movie was shot she was dealing with the whiplash affecting her, mentally and emotionally at a young age.
@@chelseatairi2112 My girlfriend and I ( later wife) viewed the Exorcist in Southend and as we were queueing priests were walking by and were begging people not to enter the cinema as it was the Devils work.

More like Hollywood and sex and drugs and rock& roll I think.
My heart still races when I hear this music...I remember when I was young, many years ago, this was the most terrifying movie I had ever seen...still is today and I'm 62
I am 58, i watched it when i was 13 at the local picture theater, ran home in the dark with the devil licking at my heels all the way, man did i un fast!
Barb you and I must be about the same age. I saw this film in Champaign, IL when I was 18 yrs old and I was terrified! (Probably my religious upbringing) For that reason I have avoid anything that has to do with this movie, but today after all these decades I’m going to rewatch this movie to see if it has the same effect.
Imagine producing a tune so legendary, that you can just name it after one of the instruments, and everyone instantly knows what it is. Like if someone just named a guitar tune "Guitar", and everybody for decades after was like "Oh yeah, 'Guitar', I love that tune."
Imagine creating a musical theme so iconic that you could play just 2 notes of it on a Cello and EVERYONE would instantly know to NOT go in the water because there's a shark there.
Я в первые услышала эту музыку в 1977 году и теперь она всю жизнь со мной,у меня так звонит телефон,в начале 2000 я посмотрела фильм, благодаря интернету,не скажу,что понравился, вероятно сильно повзрослела!
One of the greatest soundtracks of all time....and 50 years later, The Exorcist is still probably the greatest horror ever made. With exception to The Shining, I can't think of another one that comes close.
Speaking only for myself, movies like this make The Shining look like Sesame Street. I come from a religious background and the thought of demon possession rendering someone utterly helpless is terrifying! It is a reminder that there is evil in the world and we will never fully know the depth and power of it. The Amityville Horror was another terrifying movie. Coming from a religious background, the Ouija board was forbidden fruit and it led to experiences that I still shudder to remember, 50 years later. I do love this music?!
Michael Gordon Oldfield is a British multi-instrumentalist and composer. Michael Oldfield's debut album "Tubular Bells" is best known, the main theme from which was used in the horror film "The Exorcist" and received a Grammy as the best instrumental composition.
Its fantastic how people recognize this song without even have watched the movie before and how a lot of people cringe just for hearing it remaining them of the greatest horror movie ever.
+Mikhail 0. Exorcist 2 is one of the only sequels to be loathed, not because it was a copy of the original, but because it went off into its own original story, forgoing any of the shocks and tension and instead, focusing on mysticism, the origins of Pazuzu, and locust plagues. Still, one amazing Soundtrack!
It's been 43 yrs. since the first time I saw this spell-binding masterpiece. The soundtrack is out of this world. The cast is superb.I still get goosebumps.
I also saw it in 1974 when the film made its way out to Long Island. I was age 19. Remember when films were released - it could take up to 6 months before they were in suburbia movie theaters.?
My dad had this on vinyl back in the 1970's. I didn't even know that it was from Exorcist at first, but it was captivating and haunting at the same time.
Nothing has ever even come close to this masterpiece, and probably never will! Both the movie as an experience and the haunting music, Thumbs Up Messrs. Friedkin, Oldfield and Blatty!
For Absolute pop BANGER try Baby Metal, at least with Baby Metal you wont fall asleep! Try the song Rondo of Nightmare A musical note that forever repeats itself much like T.B. but with a bite.
This film still gives me the shivers.....The music was playing one night i as walking through a large department store.........I purchased the album immediately.
Lol this is hilarious. I was laughing with how mismatched the visuals and music were. Never saw the movie so I just feel like I'm exploring some colorful open world game.
The opening melody is my phone's ringtone. Great to look up and see the reaction on peoples faces when it goes off (those old enough to know its the Exorcist theme!).
You don't need to be "old enough" to know the movie's theme. If you have seen the movie you likely recognize it. Movies don't stop appealing to anyone just because they are from the seventies.
I whistled this song many times when i was a kid. Got to see the movie when i was a kid. My cousins lived in georgetown and seen some of the filming. They went on and on about it. I miss all those days so bad.
Some people I knew lived about three doors down from the house it was filmed in. It was a fall night in 1976 I was visiting them in Georgetown. They walked me down to the house it was filmed in. It was like being in the movie, eery.
Mike Oldfield was a teenager when he put this masterpiece together . There were none of the sophisticated tracking systems of today yet he was able to create this playing every instrument. You must remember, he made this before the movie was made , this wasn't created for " The Exorcist " and there was no Virgin Records , this album was its inception . Presently there are 4 incarnations of Tubular Bells , the original , Tubular Bells 2 , Tubular Bells 3 , The Millennium Bell and a remastered version of the original made in 2003 . Mike said he wanted to use some updated equipment that wasn't available in 72 . It's a superb work with a surprise guest as the Master of Ceremony introducing the instruments, I will not ruin the surprise , but you'll recognize and absolutely love who it is . Also , on Mike's outstanding work , " Songs of Distant Earth , there is a track called " Tubular World " that has our favorite melody in it . If you can , check out the live versions on RUclips of TB3 ! Peace and love to all of us Mike Oldfield fans !!!
When I first listened to tubular bells part one and part two I was a little bored and didn’t quite understand it now after a year of listening to it on and off I appreciate it for the genius piece of music that it is. please please go listen to part one and part two of the original recording. Oldfield is a genius.
Mr Oldfield has major talent, I ain't no expert. Max Von Sydow was not old in this movie, that's how artists like Dick Smith worked on makeup. Thank you Mike for creating this piece!
If ya like this then you should see the comedy spoof sequel they made. Linda Blair reprises her role as Regan and Leslie Nelsen stars as the priest who performs the exorcism. Repossessed.
Tubular Bells. The film came out 1973 to long lines. There was an ambulance in-front of the theater. Everyone was so excited to see it Your video pretty much sums it up!
When I heard this towards the ending of the first episode of The Exorcist TV series, I was moved. This track is so significant and influential that I spent nights listening and contemplating what Mike was thinking when he created this. Magical sound.
@@kylelewis9163 Look at your own comment, then look at my comment again. Note the ;-) I don't know who you think you are either, but i hope you know what you wrote in the first place. Relax, have a nice weekend.
In Richard Branson book, 'losing my virginity', he's mentioned that Mike became recluse and stopped performing at his own concerts which affected his popularity.
This song is tied to one of the greatest movies of all time. I have never been affected so strongly as I was as a teen watching the Exorcist. This song as the movie is a masterpiece.
When The Exorcist came out, was like 10-12 years old..my older brother took me to see it. Just hearing this song on the radio would scare the hell out of me. I'm 62 years alive now, and I still get the scared hopeless feeling hearing it.
A fantastic piece of music by a great legend.Mike Oldfield has produced a lot of great music but this has to be the very best , it's a favourite with everyone.😊😊😍😍👍👍👌👌
The apartment from _"The Exorcist"_ is just a few blocks from the location _"St. Elmo's Fire"_ was filmed. Rumor has it that if you visit the apartment area, your phone won't receive or allow calls, watches second hands spin uncontrollably and CD players stop playing. However, once you walk past *"St. Elmo's"* bar everything resumes as before. Of course, those are just rumors...
It is a masterpiece paired with a masterpiece. The film stands the test of time because it is real movie making. And from a medical perspective and a Roman Catholic perspective, it is spot on. Perfectly made.
Blasphemous titles claimed for the pope have been embellished and enlarged over the centuries. But a few of these boastful claims appear in an ecclesiastical (Roman Catholic) dictionary, by Lucius Ferraris, entitled _Prompta Bibliotheca Canonica,_ Vol. VI, pgs. 438, 442, article "Pope." _The Catholic Encyclopedia,_ 1913 edition, Vol. VI, p. 48, speaks of this book as "a veritable encyclopedia of religious knowledge," and "a precious mine of information." "The pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God, and the vicar of God." "The pope is of such lofty and supreme dignity that, properly speaking, he has not been established in any rank of dignity, but rather has been placed upon the very summit of all ranks of dignities. . . ." "He is likewise the divine monarch and supreme emperor and king of kings." "Hence the pope is crowned with a triple crown, as king of heaven and of earth and of the lower regions." "So that if it were possible that the angels might err in the faith, or might think contrary to the faith, they could be judged and excommunicated by the pope." "The pope is as it were God on earth, sole sovereign of the faithful of Christ, chief king of kings, having plenitude of power, to whom has been entrusted by the omnipotent God direction not only of the earthly but also of the heavenly kingdom." "The pope can modify divine law, since his power is not of man but of God." The above quotes are from _What's Behind The New World Order?_ Go to CatholicNewWorldOrder.com and click on the top link. ---------- "I am all in all and *above all,* so that God, Himself and I, the Vicar of God, have but one consistory, and I am able to do ALMOST ALL THAT GOD CAN DO . . . What therefore, can you make of me but God?" -Pope Nicholas, quoted in _Antichrist_ by Ian Paisley, pg. 54. The pope calls himself God, i.e., "Lord God the pope," "another God on earth." "We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty," Pope Leo XIII said in an _Encyclical Letter,_ June 20, 1894. "The Pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ Himself, hidden under veil of flesh," the _Catholic National_ said in July 1895. And every priest is an "Alter Christus," Another Christ. So every priest is Jesus. Plus, during the Mass the priest transubstantiates the bread into the literal, "real presence" of Christ. In other words, man creates God. "He is the creator of his Creator." _-The Dignity and Duties of the Priest_ by Liguori, Ch. 1, Part IV. How is any of this _not_ blasphemy?! Christianity teaches that the pope is the Antichrist. The proud pontiff's official title is Vicar of Christ, meaning "in the place of Christ." Vicar of Christ translated into Greek is Antichristos, in English Antichrist, also meaning "in the place of Christ." Vicar of Christ and Antichrist are the exact same word in two different languages. Vicar of Christ in Latin is Vicarius Filii Dei, meaning Vicar of the Son of God, or Vicar of Christ. VICARIVS FILII DEI. Add up the 11 Roman numerals and you get 666. Rev. 13:18. angelfire.com/on/3angels Revelation 13. 1 I . . . saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns . . . and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2 And _the _*_dragon (Satan)_*_ gave him (the beast) his power, and his seat,_ and great authority. 4 And _they worshipped the _*_dragon_*_ which gave power unto the beast:_ and they worshipped the beast . . . 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies . . . 6 And he opened his mouth in *blasphemy against God,* to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, *_Come out of her,_** my people,* that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities." Rev. 18:4, 5.
Pope is a disgusting criminal as was the predecessors going back decades and centuries. You quoting from the misogynistic fictional books mean nothing to us that are critical thinkers! Keep spewing tropes and lies…sadly millions as with islam accept religion as fact. RELIGION POISONS EVERYTHING
too bad the director and some of the crew were real a-holes for treating the lead female actors horribly on set, giving them both SERIOUS lifelong bodily injuries, and manipulating them into doing large portions of "iconic" scenes without their consent or via subterfuge. I blame Linda Blaire's parents/guardians too for not being more protective. but yeah, the film's content and craft both, especially the theme and subject matter, are dealt with a considerable degree of sophistication, no doubt. the novelist, scriptwriter, screenplay should receive most of the credit for this fact.
The Exorcist (1973) is indeed The Most Iconic Horror Movie ever if not the Best Horror Film ever made, you may not find it scary anymore but Horror films aren't just about scares.
My parents put this on in the car when we were tiny, returning from my aunt’s house. We fell asleep climbing the hill over Cheltenham, looking at the lights and listening to Tubular Bells 😊
R.I.P William Peter Blatty & Jason Miller & Lee J Cobb & Jack MacGowran & Robert Symonds & Arthur Storch!, Nearly Half the Main Cast Sadly no longer with us but This Legendary Film & Soundtrack will live on!.
@@УрошКалиниченко Lmao idk none of this shit ever resonates with me. Whats its name dementia art music thing really confused me, because everyone hyped it up so much. Like bitch I could get scaryer msuic from a harsh noise wall ruclips.net/video/Ww1Fm8WaKNc/видео.html Now this is the good shit.
2020 and it still remains the scariest movie of all time in my opinion. The cinemas had bags next to the seats for vomit. Imagine back then.. no internet and barely any exposure to the shocking things we see today. It fucked a lot of people up.

The whole Tubular Bells track is 26 minutes long and each instrument is performed by Mike Oldfield. It took him 2 years to complete the album.
the full track is like 46 or 48 min. long
We know
Tubular Bells runs at 49 minutes and 16 seconds. You can easily google it. The answers are out there.
Wrong. He played almost all of the instruments.
@@pagansplace7013 you don't know.
Tubular Bells was a stand alone piece of music used for The Exorcist and was not written for it.
It was Virgin records first album and made the money that the whole of Richard Branson's empire was founded on
I guess that is why it doesn't really sound scary to me. It was not meant to be. I never watched the movie, either.
time traveler 045623 wha t the faq
Given the right context, even the happiest songs can sound scary.
Lee B and launched the careers of Mike Oldfield and Richard Branson.
And Virgin's next album was for the best Prog Rock band in history, _Gong._
Safe to say Virgin had a pretty good start.
Whenever I hear this track it reminds me of the Exorcist. A film that scared so much when I saw it in the 70's.
my mom had nightmares for years over watching it in the theatres when it came out, at the time it was ahead of its time in horror movies, now a classic
Really?
Whenever you hear the Exorcist soundtrack it reminds you of the Exorcist?
Talk about it, alot of audience fleeing the cinema due to its content graphic nature. It was banned in alot of countries and places, released later dates a very few places were screening it, thats why it's the best #1 in horror hall of fame. Linda Blair so courageous to take on such a role, which later after the movie was shot she was dealing with the whiplash affecting her, mentally and emotionally at a young age.
@@chelseatairi2112 My girlfriend and I ( later wife) viewed the Exorcist in Southend and as we were queueing priests were walking by and were begging people not to enter the cinema as it was the Devils work. During the scene when Reagens head rotated 180 degrees a man three seats down from us threw up . Also First Aiders were circulating round the aisles. PS. Disagree with you about a whiplash effect. More like Hollywood and sex and drugs and rock& roll I think.
He was 19 when this was recorded. Amazing.
My colleague chose this song for his wake. He'd a great sense of humour. Miss you Richard x
Omfg I'm totally stealing this idea. RIP to your colleague.
Lol.. that's cool.
This is brilliant!!!!
My heart still races when I hear this music...I remember when I was young, many years ago, this was the most terrifying movie I had ever seen...still is today and I'm 62
Me too still get chills especially cause of the movie gives you 🌃 nightmares don't watch alone 😈
Yes, it was well done...made to feel real
I am 58, i watched it when i was 13 at the local picture theater, ran home in the dark with the devil licking at my
heels all the way, man did i un fast!
Barb you and I must be about the same age. I saw this film in Champaign, IL when I was 18 yrs old and I was terrified! (Probably my religious upbringing) For that reason I have avoid anything that has to do with this movie, but today after all these decades I’m going to rewatch this movie to see if it has the same effect.
Me too. i am 62 as well....
RIP William Friedkin, the legendary director behind The Exorcist, single-handedly the most iconic and terrifying film ever produced.
AMEN 🙏 🙏 🙏
It's a movie whose horror never ceases to get under your skin.
Rip talent and happy 50th to a classic
"WE MADE HIM LOTS OF MONEY!!!" The story of this being the exorcist theme was like many things a fluke.
Without a FRIGGING doubt!!!!!
SIMPLY GORGEOUS!!! One of the MOST iconic songs from ANY GENRE movie!!
No one can listen to this without getting chills.
True and all time nightmare
It just made me....HOT.
Nah mate, I get pills. Need to recover from the shock.
Still my favorite horror theme to this day
me
Imagine producing a tune so legendary, that you can just name it after one of the instruments, and everyone instantly knows what it is. Like if someone just named a guitar tune "Guitar", and everybody for decades after was like "Oh yeah, 'Guitar', I love that tune."
I will quote you on this.
I am in the presence of genius, thank you.

@@deannorman9585 Exactly!
Bro what
Tubular bells and guitar are smth different bro 😂
First heard Tubular Bells in 1974.....and 50 years on is still my all time favourite album.....😘

I still have it on vinyl and CD. Love the tune

1973!
Mike oldfield played almost all of the instruments in this song . Absolute belter of a song and what a musician
Had the distinct privilege of hearing this played live by Oldfield himself at the opening of the London Olympics in 2012. That was a good night!
One of the greatest soundtracks of all time....and 50 years later, The Exorcist is still probably the greatest horror ever made. With exception to The Shining, I can't think of another one that comes close.
People say "Jaws", I can get it.
Halloween (1978) comes close, I think.
My fav is "The Thing" with Kurt Russell
Speaking only for myself, movies like this make The Shining look like Sesame Street. I come from a religious background and the thought of demon possession rendering someone utterly helpless is terrifying! It is a reminder that there is evil in the world and we will never fully know the depth and power of it. The Amityville Horror was another terrifying movie.

I agree
Followed by one of the most infamously bad sequels EVER Made! Too bad, because it had one of the best soundtracks ever to grace a film.
Anxiety Entertainment yeah but the next one is very good, this movie as many others didnt need a sequel, but hey money is money
+Mikhail 0.

Still, one amazing Soundtrack!
Anxiety Entertainment haha yeah at least something good
It's been 43 yrs. since the first time I saw this spell-binding masterpiece. The soundtrack is out of this world. The cast is superb.I still get goosebumps.
And still the most haunting movie theme ever-----I saw the movie in '74 (?) when it first came to Boston...it scared the crap out of me........
I also saw it in 1974 when the film made its way out to Long Island. I was age 19. Remember when films were released - it could take up to 6 months before they were in suburbia movie theaters.?
To be fair, I think this is the only song in the film and it only plays for like 30 seconds at the beginning and end.
Barely used at all.
You too.
My dad had this on vinyl back in the 1970's. I didn't even know that it was from Exorcist at first, but it was captivating and haunting at the same time.
Still have it
It is not from the exorcist it was just used on it, the album came first
That's because the film used it, the music came before u.u fount that out in vsauce
Still have my dad’s record of it too.
@@psicogames5509Omg same
The film and the song have one big thing in common. They are both technical masterpieces. Crafts work.
Absolutely fantastic. The book, the movie, the music
Nothing has ever even come close to this masterpiece, and probably never will! Both the movie as an experience and the haunting music, Thumbs Up Messrs. Friedkin, Oldfield and Blatty!
How did I not know that this song was an absolute pop B A N G E R
It's not pop, it's prog
I wasn't alive yet personally
For Absolute pop BANGER try Baby Metal, at least with Baby Metal you wont fall asleep! Try the song Rondo of Nightmare A musical note that forever repeats itself much like T.B. but with a bite.

Excelente soundtrack para una maravillosa película e historia. Por siempre la mejor.
Absolute perfection, standing alone or for the film. I hear it and I'm back in 1974 instantly. This song was everywhere. Haunting and chilling.

greatest horror film ever made. even to this day. listening to this song still sends chills down the spine ..
quagmire me too saw this with my parents. had nightmares for days. luv it and this theme best ever next to star wars.
quagmire NO YOU’RE LYING , THE BEST HORROR MOVIE IS OBVIOUSLY ANNABELLE !!! Anyone ?

THIS SONG IS A MASTER PIECE
It's a beautiful piece for a terrifying story.
46 years later and the chills still come when I hear this ...
The greatest horror movie ever made and one of the best soundtracks ever made. ‘Classic’.

The Power of Christ protects you.
His brother passed away a few days into filming The Exorcist, I hope he's at peace with him now.
When I first listened to tubular bells part one and part two I was a little bored and didn’t quite understand it now after a year of listening to it on and off I appreciate it for the genius piece of music that it is. please please go listen to part one and part two of the original recording. Oldfield is a genius.
Gives me the shivers whenever I hear this cos I know what's coming .After50 years this film is still the benchmark for the horror genre😮
Not only was this the greatest horror movie ever made, best theme song as well. Thanks for posting this masterpiece.
Was not really used much at all in the film, only in passing.
Movie sucks now lol...song holds up tho
One of the most epic soundtracks of all time

Un muy buen film de la época, muy bien realizado, y la música de Mike Oldfield del álbum Tubular Bells, 2 clásicos por el precio de 1 !!
Correcto
This is my all time favourite movie theme music. Gives me chills everytime.
IT BURNS 🔥!
This film is a masterpiece that will go down in history.
50 years and the song is not a single day too old! This song is a Mona Lisa of the music, always audible and always an example of eternal beauty!
one of the BEST classic horror movies ive seen! this music fits well with the plot of the film.
If ya like this then you should see the comedy spoof sequel they made. Linda Blair reprises her role as Regan and Leslie Nelsen stars as the priest who performs the exorcism. Repossessed.
A comedy spoof? Surely you can't be serious...
Deadly serious. Check it NOW! It's on youtube this very second. THE FULL MOVIE! CHECK IT OUT BEFORE IT GETS TAKEN OFF!

The Exorcist 2 isn't a comedy spoof... although it may as well be.
It's actually meant to be good, it's just that bad.
3 is just as good
The Exorcist is a classic scary horror movie and the music theme to this movie fits it well. Thanks for sharing.
Fantástica la nitidez de esta versión, no pasan los años por tan tremenda película
Tubular Bells. The film came out 1973 to long lines. There was an ambulance in-front of the theater. Everyone was so excited to see it Your video pretty much sums it up!
I remember too going to see this and there were people outside the cinema warning us not to go in, wish I'd listened had nightmares for weeks after 😂
When I heard this towards the ending of the first episode of The Exorcist TV series, I was moved. This track is so significant and influential that I spent nights listening and contemplating what Mike was thinking when he created this. Magical sound.
Mike oldfield was such a genius in prog rock, too bad many people don’t appreciate him
He is kind of a crazy person. One day hopefully he can get this song recorded correctly so it sounds correct in his head and the speakers
@@kylelewis9163 Not easy, everybody can hear how wrong it is ;-)
@@Heatfarmer idk who you think you are, I don't know what topic you are discussing but you are wrong
@@kylelewis9163 Look at your own comment, then look at my comment again. Note the ;-) I don't know who you think you are either, but i hope you know what you wrote in the first place. Relax, have a nice weekend.
In Richard Branson book, 'losing my virginity', he's mentioned that Mike became recluse and stopped performing at his own concerts which affected his popularity.
This song is tied to one of the greatest movies of all time. I have never been affected so strongly as I was as a teen watching the Exorcist. This song as the movie is a masterpiece.
I'm not a huge fan of horror, but this film is very good. Friedkin's ruthless perfectionism really paid off in terms of excellent cinematography.
When The Exorcist came out, was like 10-12 years old..my older brother took me to see it. Just hearing this song on the radio would scare the hell out of me. I'm 62 years alive now, and I still get the scared hopeless feeling hearing it.
A fantastic piece of music by a great legend.Mike Oldfield has produced a lot of great music but this has to be the very best , it's a favourite with everyone.😊😊😍😍👍👍👌👌
Thanks for bringing me here Mindfield
The most eerily beautiful song I've ever heard, without a doubt!!❤❤
The apartment from _"The Exorcist"_ is just a few blocks from the location _"St. Elmo's Fire"_ was filmed. Rumor has it that if you visit the apartment area, your phone won't receive or allow calls, watches second hands spin uncontrollably and CD players stop playing. However, once you walk past *"St. Elmo's"* bar everything resumes as before. Of course, those are just rumors...
Peaked at #31 in U.K. on 21 July 1974
This music is awesome. I watched the movie when it was released. I only watched it one time. But, I can listen to this music for ever.
It is a masterpiece paired with a masterpiece. The film stands the test of time because it is real movie making. And from a medical perspective and a Roman Catholic perspective, it is spot on. Perfectly made.
Blasphemous titles claimed for the pope have been embellished and enlarged over the centuries. But a few of these boastful claims appear in an ecclesiastical (Roman Catholic) dictionary, by Lucius Ferraris, entitled _Prompta Bibliotheca Canonica,_ Vol. VI, pgs. 438, 442, article "Pope." _The Catholic Encyclopedia,_ 1913 edition, Vol. VI, p. 48, speaks of this book as "a veritable encyclopedia of religious knowledge," and "a precious mine of information."
"The pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God, and the vicar of God."
"The pope is of such lofty and supreme dignity that, properly speaking, he has not been established in any rank of dignity, but rather has been placed upon the very summit of all ranks of dignities. . . ."
"He is likewise the divine monarch and supreme emperor and king of kings."
"Hence the pope is crowned with a triple crown, as king of heaven and of earth and of the lower regions."
"So that if it were possible that the angels might err in the faith, or might think contrary to the faith, they could be judged and excommunicated by the pope."
"The pope is as it were God on earth, sole sovereign of the faithful of Christ, chief king of kings, having plenitude of power, to whom has been entrusted by the omnipotent God direction not only of the earthly but also of the heavenly kingdom."
"The pope can modify divine law, since his power is not of man but of God."

"I am all in all and *above all,* so that God, Himself and I, the Vicar of God, have but one consistory, and I am able to do ALMOST ALL THAT GOD CAN DO . . . What therefore, can you make of me but God?" -Pope Nicholas, quoted in _Antichrist_ by Ian Paisley, pg. 54.
The pope calls himself God, i.e., "Lord God the pope," "another God on earth." "We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty," Pope Leo XIII said in an _Encyclical Letter,_ June 20, 1894. "The Pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ Himself, hidden under veil of flesh," the _Catholic National_ said in July 1895. And every priest is an "Alter Christus," Another Christ. So every priest is Jesus. Plus, during the Mass the priest transubstantiates the bread into the literal, "real presence" of Christ. In other words, man creates God. "He is the creator of his Creator." _-The Dignity and Duties of the Priest_ by Liguori, Ch. 1, Part IV. How is any of this _not_ blasphemy?!
Christianity teaches that the pope is the Antichrist. The proud pontiff's official title is Vicar of Christ, meaning "in the place of Christ." Vicar of Christ translated into Greek is Antichristos, in English Antichrist, also meaning "in the place of Christ." Vicar of Christ and Antichrist are the exact same word in two different languages. Vicar of Christ in Latin is Vicarius Filii Dei, meaning Vicar of the Son of God, or Vicar of Christ. VICARIVS FILII DEI. Add up the 11 Roman numerals and you get 666. Rev. 13:18. angelfire.com/on/3angels
Revelation 13.
1 I . . . saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns . . . and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
2 And _the _*_dragon (Satan)_*_ gave him (the beast) his power, and his seat,_ and great authority.
4 And _they worshipped the _*_dragon_*_ which gave power unto the beast:_ and they worshipped the beast . . .
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies . . .
6 And he opened his mouth in *blasphemy against God,* to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, *_Come out of her,_** my people,* that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities." Rev. 18:4, 5.
Pope is a disgusting criminal as was the predecessors going back decades and centuries.
You quoting from the misogynistic fictional books mean nothing to us that are critical thinkers!
Keep spewing tropes and lies…sadly millions as with islam accept religion as fact.
RELIGION POISONS EVERYTHING
“Medical perspective”?
As for catholic cult perspective it is factual in that it reflects the fiction as laid out by the greedy criminals!
@@floogelhornzzz4770 No, Christianity doesn't teach the Pope is the antiChrist. Some Fundy Protestants teach that.
too bad the director and some of the crew were real a-holes for treating the lead female actors horribly on set, giving them both SERIOUS lifelong bodily injuries, and manipulating them into doing large portions of "iconic" scenes without their consent or via subterfuge. I blame Linda Blaire's parents/guardians too for not being more protective.
but yeah, the film's content and craft both, especially the theme and subject matter, are dealt with a considerable degree of sophistication, no doubt.
the novelist, scriptwriter, screenplay should receive most of the credit for this fact.
The Exorcist (1973) is indeed The Most Iconic Horror Movie ever if not the Best Horror Film ever made, you may not find it scary anymore but Horror films aren't just about scares.
A mi si me da miedo
@@poletfernandez2853
Confirmo. La película envejeció como el vino
Yes so haunting it never leaves you once you've heard it
Actualidad total en un mundo recalentado espiritualmente. .. la vi en el cine y tantos años después sigue dando miedo ... EXCELENTE MÚSICA Y CREACIÓN.
My parents put this on in the car when we were tiny, returning from my aunt’s house. We fell asleep climbing the hill over Cheltenham, looking at the lights and listening to Tubular Bells 😊
My home town 👍
4:04 The transition here is just beautiful
Greatest Horror movie ever as well as best soundtrack ever. Consequently based on a true story
Just listening to this sends a shiver. The movie was and still is a classic!
So good to see scenes from the movie while hearing the music of Tubular Bells -- very well done!
Greatest horror movie ever.
Wow beautiful sound
R.I.P William Peter Blatty & Jason Miller & Lee J Cobb & Jack MacGowran & Robert Symonds & Arthur Storch!, Nearly Half the Main Cast Sadly no longer with us but This Legendary Film & Soundtrack will live on!.
Add Mr. von Sydow to the list now. Upon word of his death, my mind flashed to this movie, as I'm sure many others did as well.
@@cneterer
Totally agree with Your Sentiments!,
Take Care,

And now William o malley and William friedkin 😢
Who came here straight from Vsauce's scariest video?
Damn straight.
Haaa I did
omg me
not that anyone cares... But me too! (and many others)
Meeeeee
came here from mind field, now this song is a bop
I've never seen the excorcist so since it's the first time listening to the song i really like it. Not scary at all
@@УрошКалиниченко Lmao idk none of this shit ever resonates with me. Whats its name dementia art music thing really confused me, because everyone hyped it up so much. Like bitch I could get scaryer msuic from a harsh noise wall ruclips.net/video/Ww1Fm8WaKNc/видео.html
Now this is the good shit.
same, this song is an absolute banger holy shit
Una película extraordinaria al.igual que el tema que creo, nunca pasará a la historia a pasar los años!!
Came back for some nostalgia after seeing the new Exorcist trailer. This is my favorite horror movie theme of all time.
2020 and it still remains the scariest movie of all time in my opinion. The cinemas had bags next to the seats for vomit. Imagine back then.. no internet and barely any exposure to the shocking things we see today. It fucked a lot of people up.
Can we all just agree that the base line is the best part of this whole thing
Sacary movie level 1000. Fantastic tune and the supreme Masterpiece of terror.
Super !!!
Never realized how complex a composer like Oldfield was until I checked out the album version of this song.
3:35 the biggest chill down the spine in the history of cinema.
A beautiful and eerie masterpiece.
Gran tema de la mejor película de horror de la historia.
Just the six minutes of this post is enough to send shivers into people's spines. Great movie, great author, makes my high school proud.
Michael Gordon Oldfield from Reading.....the one and only, beyond reproached, Master Of Instruments
I came here from a comment on another video, "L's Theme" from Death Note. I'm glad I found this, this is great music.
+Earl Parkour Woah same.
+Earl Parkour I've never been given a chance to watch Death Note! Is it really so good as many people say?
Jeff Costello It's a definite must watch
The_Enthusiast Thanks a lot! Then I'll do so!
it's also a great movie
One of the best films ever made. RIP William Friedkin.
This is an Eerie and very evocative music,ideal for the best Exorcism horror movie of all time like "The Exorcist"(1973)!
Awesome tune
Chillingly beautiful score.
Who came up with the idea to include this song in the context of a demonic possession ?? So amazing !! Respect !
Maybe Richard Branson?
I just wish Mike Oldfield made more music like this.
His early works were all completely amazing.
Maybe you'll give Ommadawn a try: ruclips.net/video/HlNi-zZF6wI/видео.html
You are talking like this is the only thing he made 😂. Hergest ridge, Ommadawn, Incantations, Platinum... Masterpieces
This song is a straight banger im enjoying this
This movie absolutely blew me away
It is so wild growing up on Mike Oldfield before seeing The Exorcist, so this song had a 100% different vibe in your head.
