Mike Oldfield - Moonlight Shadow

It's been 30 years since Mike Oldfield's "Moonlight Shadow" single was released, spearheading the excellent Crises album. Although having experienced minor pop hits like "Family Man" and "Five Miles Out" earlier, "Moonlight Shadow" was the song that broke Oldfield into a larger audience. The intoxicatingly beautiful song featuring Maggie Reilly on vocals, became a huge, worldwide hit in the summer of 1983, creating Reilly's career in the process. It's a song that still makes me as happy as you please.

Watch and listen
