| - Tubular Bells(チューブラー・ベルズChūburā Beruzu) is the Stand of Mike O., featured in Steel Ball Run.
- these bells stand upright and sound really churchy
- Tubular Bells was Mike Oldfield's first album, released in 1973
- Woah, tubular! ...two slightly distorted electric guitars... And finally, TUBULAR BELLS!
- Hugely successful debut album by artist Mike Oldfield. The album is known for its signature opening track, which was soon used as the recognizable music to the film The Exorcist, and also for its financial success, providing the foundation for what became Richard Branson's Virgin Empire. Previously, Branson had been the owner of a single, though quite successful, record shop. Oldfield plays nearly all the instruments featured on the album himself through overdubbing. At the time, overdubbing was not so widespread as it is now, and was a notable feature of the album in 1973.
- Tubular Bells is the debut record album of English musician Mike Oldfield, recorded when he was 19 and released in 1973. It was the first album released by Virgin Records and an early cornerstone of the company's success. Vivian Stanshall provided the voice of the "Master of Ceremonies" who reads off the list of instruments at the end of the first movement. The opening piano solo was used as a soundtrack to the enormously successful William Friedkin film The Exorcist (released the same year) and gained considerable airplay because of this.

- Hugely successful debut album by artist Mike Oldfield. The album is known for its signature opening track, which was soon used as the recognizable music to the film The Exorcist, and also for its financial success, providing the foundation for what became Richard Branson's Virgin Empire. Previously, Branson had been the owner of a single, though quite successful, record shop. Although Oldfield was to later become known as a New Age artist, he has stated that Tubular Bells is too dynamic to fall into such a category, though some elements are similar. It has, by contrast, been featured on rock album lists. Tubular Bells was released in 1973, and its success spawned the recording of The Orchestral Tubular Bells in 1974, but it was not until much later that Oldfield returned to his first album in force, releasing Tubular Bells 2 in 1992, Tubular Bells 3 in 1998 and The Millennium Bell in 2003. Your Mileage May Vary on how these recordings stack up to the original. Oldfield plays nearly all the instruments featured on the album himself through overdubbing. At the time, overdubbing was not so widespread as it is now, and was a notable feature of the album in 1973.

- Tubular Bells is the debut record album of English musician Mike Oldfield, recorded when he was 19 and released in 1973. It was the first album released by Virgin Records and an early cornerstone of the company's success. Vivian Stanshall provided the voice of the "Master of Ceremonies" who reads off the list of instruments at the end of the first movement. The opening piano solo was used as a soundtrack to the enormously successful William Friedkin film The Exorcist (released the same year) and gained considerable airplay because of this. The piece was later orchestrated by David Bedford for The Orchestral Tubular Bells version and it had three sequels in the 1990s, Tubular Bells II (1992), Tubular Bells III (1998) and The Millennium Bell (1999). Finally, the album was fully re-recorded as Tubular Bells 2003 at its 30th anniversary in 2003. A newly mastered and mixed re-issue of the original album appeared in June 2009 on Mercury Records, with bonus material. For the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics Oldfield rearranged segments from Tubular Bells for a segment about the National Health Service. This rendition appears on the soundtrack album Isles of Wonder and is included on the official BBC DVD release.
