Thank you to Jim Adams, who hosts Song Lyric Sunday and gives us the chance to share lots of familiar, and some not so familiar, songs.
If you fancy sharing one of your favourites you can find out how to participate, and also listen to all the great entries, here.
I am totally cheating this week in that this is an instrumental video, it is NOT A SONG, and there are NO LYRICS. However, it is the end music to the film “Mutiny on the Bounty” from 1984, so it sort of fits the bill.
It really is great music, in the very recognisable form of Vangelis, although, in this video, sequenced with sonar and tyros 3 and performed by Albertvvl.
I hope you enjoy it.
Also, below, is the Opening music
Reminds me a bit of his music for “Chariots of Fire.” Good choice, and I don’t mind instrumental!

I love both pieces of music. They are mild, mellow, and truly moving. Thank you for sharing, Peter!

I enjoyed, for sure. I don’t know the film but I love a bit of Vangelis.

This version of the movie blows away the previous ones, and is one of my favorite movies ever, in no small part because of the haunting music. I may have to pull it out and watch it this afternoon. I hear this and I see Mel Gibson and the others watching their ship burn.

It is OK to cheat, as long as you have fun doing it. Captain Bly was a SOB.

Wonderful ambience. This is the kind of music I listen to to clear my mind. Good choice for the prompt, Peter.

Nice music. I can’t remember seeing the updated movie, but I’ve seen the original with Charles Laughton many times.
