    Love it! My favourite moment is at 2:44 how the sound of the cymbals syncs perfectly with the peacock spreading its feathers. Stunning!

    That really had to be done (!) - and obviously was just sitting around waiting for YOU! :-) I am utterly grateful for the love and insight you have put both into this beautiful song and its visualisation. I've been sharing it with friends all day (Beltaine) :-D Merry meet, merry part, merry meet again :-) - Have a wonderful first May 2021 and stay safe!

    It's visually stunning. I agree with you that this is a stand out track on Apple Venus when I heard this song I thought about people riding camels in the desert looking at a starry sky but you made a very spot on video of XTC's Greenman, well done!

    WOW, I just saw a video of me performing this song in a little ice cafe where the greenman was the theme of the place. I finally found this song. I was so young back then not understanding the text but now I do, I think that I am going to try to find out more of the history, its so beautifull!

    this is years later, but i was wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing links to some of the video that you used. i'd love to see the originals.
    and of course this video was so well done. at the time i first heard the song it really just bowled me over. later i found your remixed video and was once again struck by the beauty, warmth, and insight of the song.
    thank you for your time, for your work, for sharing your own imaginative telling of this story.

    Please to bend down for the one called the Greenman
    He wants to make you his bride
    Please to bend down for the one called the Greenman
    Forever to him you’re tied
    And you know for a million years he has been your lover
    He’ll be a million more
    And you know for a million years he has been your lover
    Down through the skin to the core
    Heed the Greenman
    Heed the Greenman
    Please to dance round for the one called the Greenman
    He wants to make you his child
    Please to dance round for the one called the Greenman
    Dressed in the fruits of the wild
    And you know for a million years he has been your father
    He’ll be a million more
    And you know for a million years he has been your father
    Run to his arms at the door
    Lay your head, lay your head, lay your head, lay your head on the Greenman
    Lay your head, lay your head with mine
    Lay your head, lay your head, lay your head, lay your head on the Greenman
    Build a bed out of oak and pine
    See the Greenman blow his kiss from high church wall
    And unknowing church will amplify his call

    Love tzhis video. Been a fan of the song for years, but this video is excellent. Can you provide a list of sources for the video? I recognize the Outlander footage, and Twink the Faeire, but would love to know where else the footage comes from.

    • @lateleigh
      @lateleigh  2 роки тому +2

      Honestly I made it so long ago, I can’t even remember where I got most of the shots. I searched many different topics based on themes I heard in the song such as “forest sprites” and “lantern dancing” but I couldn’t be more specific tbh!
