    I am 72. This song is without doubt one of the outstanding pieces of modern music ever written, produced and performed considering the restrictions in technology prevalent to the 1980's. It is hypnotic in it's repetition and beautifully backed with an understated rhythm. The extended version with I think 3 guitar riffs repeated stuns the senses. This guy was and is a giant of contemporary music which considering his catastrophic upbringing and early years supporting an alcoholic mother without most of the social skills enjoyed by most of us is a triumph of his spirit and humble humanity. Although no angel, he was undoubtedly gifted by a higher power to produce such spine tingling songs.

      Graham's great comment on the subject reminds me that, probably, "Crime Of Passion" is perhaps one of the most impressive and masterfully crafted piece of a pop song. For me was the beautiful island in the middle of the eighties pop ocean.
      Mike Oldfield stated in his own biography that his difficult situation in his early days was what turbo-charged his music with that energy and quality.
      In fact, most of the greatest artists ever in human history were tormented people.

      Agreed, this can be mostly said to musicians which always acted against the mainstream and those get fewer and fewer, like you sometimes cannot tell from the backside of a car if its a Mercedes or BMW any longer. It merges more and more into one, mainly trying to catch preferably everyone, but that doesn´t work or last for long, only for a certain moment. Can´t remember any musician or song of the past 20 Years which would be worth to remember.

I only remembered fragments of melody, and always wanted to find it again, but never could. UNTIL TODAY! Totally randomly, a friend at work asked if I liked Mike Oldfield. I acknowledged, and then the guy said there was a song by him I might like. So I looked it up on RUclips, and put it on. 2 seconds in, and I immediately knew! The guy from work got a huge hug.

    I bought the single back then, because the song was not available on any LP at the time. It's interesting to note that Mike Oldfield has been so successful with a wide varietey of different singers. That's pretty unusual. I can only think of Alan Parsons Project who relied on different voices and never concentrated on one or two singers. Barry Palmer sang on a few other Oldfield tracks and his singing is great. Crystal clear.

    I Borrowed a copy of Tubular bells from my English teacher after we had to write a short essay in 1973 I was 12 years old and I have had the pleasure of using his fantastic music as a chronograph for my life.... I'm still waiting for Hergest Ridge II though ;o)

    I truly despise how some people use superlatives like genius etc, but in this case Ihave to affirm that Mike Oldfield IS a TRUE MUSICAL GENIUS. Thank you Mike for ALL of your music and the stories I have carried over those great years. I was born same year and even my son was drawn to your music. Thank you and have a majestic Christmas.

    Oh God, can't stand this song is so underrated. 700k views? Nowadays many crappy tracks has more. Seems people can't recognize and appreciate good music at all...

    Lyrics
    On a bright day she passed away, in the morning
    It's a cruel way, to take her away with no warning
    He took her hands through every midnight hour
    And then he saw her fading away like a spring shower
    I can see a complete life's time
    Pictures and posters of times and fashion
    Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme
    Taken away in a crime of passion
    He stood to see if he could catch her breathing
    But it was no good, he understood she was leaving
    He looked outside the frosty windowpane
    And then he saw her moving away, Elizabeth Jane
    I can see a complete life's time
    Pictures and posters of times and fashion
    Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme
    Taken away in a crime of passion
    I see freedom in sight, it's a long climb
    But she would not give up the fight for a long time
    And I see a light come shining in tonight
    Baby, it's all right, we couldn't have changed it with second sight
    I can see a complete life's time
    Pictures and posters of times and fashion
    Nineteen years with no reason or rhyme
    Taken away in a crime of passion
    I see freedom light shining in the night
    I see freedom but she wouldn't give up the fight
    I see a light go shining in tonight
    Baby, it's all right, we couldn't have changed it with second sight
    I see a light go shining in tonight
    Baby, it's all right, we couldn't have changed it with second sight
    I see a light go shining in tonight
    Baby, it's all right, we couldn't have changed it with second sight
    I see a light go shining in tonight
    Baby, it's all right, we couldn't have changed it with second sight

    a charming oldfield single that should've faired better on charts in aus and his home land of the UK (elsewhere in europe and IRE it was a decent hit!), Barry's vocals are great on this one always trying to match it when i'm singing it around the house
