Tubular BellsMike Oldfield
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that this is one of the most famous main theme songs in horror film history worldwide.
“Tubular Bells” became a hit not only in the United States but also in Japan as the theme for the classic horror film The Exorcist, and just listening to it vividly brings back scenes from that terrifying movie.
In fact, this main theme is an arranged and re-recorded version of the distinctive main phrase that opens Part 1 of British musician Mike Oldfield’s 1973 solo album Tubular Bells.
There’s a behind-the-scenes story that Oldfield himself had no involvement in the performance or arrangement of the film version, but that doesn’t diminish the value of the piece.
If you only know The Exorcist version, be sure to give the original album a listen as well.
ChangeMonkey Majik+Yoshida Kyoudai
It’s a collaborative track by the rock band Monkey Majik and the Tsugaru-shamisen duo Yoshida Brothers, blending rock with traditional Japanese instruments.
You might wonder, “Do rock and Tsugaru shamisen really go together?” The Yoshida Brothers’ signature song RISING already incorporates intense guitar sounds and has a cool, powerful finish.
In this song, however, the standout feature is the harmony between Monkey Majik’s fresh, uplifting rock and the Tsugaru shamisen, expressing a new form of East–West fusion.
The lyrics sing as if speaking to the listener: “Let’s keep chasing the dream we once threw away, without giving up,” which has encouraged many listeners as an inspirational anthem.
