# Well, he didn't go boom.
It was incredibly tacky - promo for a pop song and phrases like 'Space is Virgin territory'. He could have at least commissioned Tubular Bells in Space instead of pretending he likes listening to *Googles* Khalid. 2/10

# Branson had a massive falling out with Oldfield.
Branson kept pestering Oldfield to redo Tubular Bells in some way, and he kept refusing.
The last album Oldfield did for Virgin includes "Fuck off beardie" in Morse code.
Immediately that Oldfield got out of the contract, he released several new versions of Tubular Bells.

Rock and roll, eh?
