You might like this short little video with all the rustic landscape images with "16 Miles to Seven Lakes" accompanying it. I love the way it opens with the eclipse and ends with an incredible moving panoramic view.


Enjoy!

Both SFAWN videos are awesome. Hearing the opening chords to that song floods my mind with pleasant memories.

If anyone hasn't heard Sarah Mclachlan's version of SFAWN, I believe this is it.

Yes Watchman, Sarah's version of SFAWN is very beautiful. She has the voice of an Angel, not that I have ever heard an Angel speak, but you know what I mean...

I might hear an angel speak - if my FULL name keeps popping up on this board. I'll let you know what they sound like Jessie Joe.

Very nice - well done matching lyrics to images. One of my favorite early Lightfoot songs, btw. Here's the description posted with the video:

This may be some of the best 2:08 minutes of Gordon Lightfoot and is one of the first of his tunes I learned to play on the 6 string. The " Old Love of mine"...may well be the wilderness of the Canadian Shield. He loves Ontario and the majestic lakes rivers and streams of Canada. I chose to set this song in the fall of the year.

The last scene ( to the words "somewhere on a mountain") is a panorama from Ishpatina Ridge...the height of land north-west of The City of Temiskaming Shores- Dymond,New Liskeard,Haileybury and North Cobalt.
This is the heighest point of land in Ontario. Waters to the north of this ridge flow to James Bay-Hudson Bay. Waters to the south of this ridge flow to The Great Lakes and the Ottawa River. This video meets VPG Standards.

Ah yes! Not sure how I missed this one... I love the brilliant nebula picture, the images of native americans and the b/w pics of the railroad and the workers.

Someone obviously took care and time making these videos, coordinating each image with the appropriate lyric... even a picture of "bad whiskey" :D

Thanks for pointing this one out for me Jesse Joe!
