LYRICS:
Let it breathe, if it doesn’t breathe - it’s gonna die
Let us see, if we let it be - is it gonna fly
Set it free and if it leaves we say goodbye
A web we weave and then we grieve and then we cry
I wanna tell you before I forget
You’re doing well, you know you’re living it
You’re gonna make it no matter how hard it gets
Despite the darkness some of these days
Wintergreen
Can’t outshine your radiance
Wintergreen
Or undermine your salience
Wintergreen
I love you more than anything
Wintergreen
Despite the darkness some of these days
Let it go but you should know you’re on my mind
Let it flow embrace the ever changing tracks of space and time
If you grow beyond the world that we defined
Just Let me know that you’re gonna be alright
I want to tell you before it’s too late
You had it all going on right out of the gate
You never fake it or phone it in
Despite the darkness some of these days
Wintergreen
Can’t outshine your radiance
Wintergreen
Or undermine your salience
Wintergreen
I love you more than anything
Wintergreen
Despite the darkness some of these days
The way up and the way down are one in the same
I’m calling an audible late in the game
If love is everything love is pain
And certain spirits are too bright to be tamed
Can’t outshine your radiance
Or undermine your salience
Or redefine your sentience
Despite the darkness some of these days
Wintergreen
Can’t outshine your radiance
Wintergreen
Or undermine your salience
Wintergreen
I love you more than anything
Wintergreen
Despite the darkness some of these days
Wintergreen
Wintergreen
The lady doing the sign language in this video has an infectious way of making me smile throughout the video.. Her positive energy is just exuding from her soul outward.
Her name is Emma Watkins she's a current member of the Australian children's band the Wiggles and she's pretty awesome
@@RhonaMiller I CANT BELIEVE IT!!! I was like.. that HAS to be Emma!
She’s literally so good at it that she made a career out of it! Haha
Same for me. 😊
She is definitely an Irish step dancer!!
Every so often a song comes along that makes the world a better place. This is one of them!
Just heard this song as the theme song to Under the Vines immediately loved it. What a wonderful video.
Haha me too, such a good song
Absolutely fantastic. And I love the signing… beautiful
this show is a year old? oh. just watched the finale on TVNZ. enjoyed it. got better each episode, last 3 were great.
Same. Had to google it😂
Me too!
Top 10 Crossovers Nobody Expected: Canadian folk music and the Wiggles.
The song is gorgeous btw.
Didn't realize it was Emma until seeing your comment. Last time I saw them Tim was saying they just went to a Wiggles concert because they know them. So actually an expected crossover for me. Haha.
In both directions. There's a segment on the Wiggles that has them with Tim Chaisson, singing "Squid Jiggin' Ground." My infant grandson will bounce along in time with it.
I KNEW IT OMG
Every once in a while there is a song that is trasportive. It takes your spirit to a new place!
There are few people in life and rarely in person who hypnotise you with their speech or movement but Emma is one. She is truly beautiful in her grace
Yes
Love the intersection of sign language and dance! Will definitely be considering this song for highland dance choreography.
My husband and I just recently visited PEI to celebrate our ten year wedding anniversary. This song was released just as we were preparing to leave to make our way to the Rollo Bay Fiddle Festival for the first time. Our youngest child immediately spread out her arms and began twirling the first time we played it. Now when it's on, my memories are driving over the bridge, windows down, Wintergreen loud. We missed the merch. at the festival because we had Sunday tickets and most things were sold out, but we got to leave with the memory of the Sunday evening Barn dance. We love The East Pointers and their passion for their music and their island. Their sound is unlike any other, because they play who they are and from where they've come.
Simply joyous.
Listening to a band I love. My heart is heavy today and I send much love out to all of those who are closest. What a gift to have had the moments to create together.
Sending you love and renewed energy from your troubles. It's gonna be alright 💕
Love this song and Emma signing enhances its beauty
A song straight from the heart will always shine through.
This song just put my "very upset" 1.5 year old to sleep , my mind is blown, you are talented beyond words and whoever the girl is dancing ......... all around WOW !
Colin Carlson her name is Emma Watsin and her personal channel is here which expresses some of her hobbies / passions:
ua-cam.com/channels/TDHxzUNzVrCEY88yTtz59g.html
She is also very famous in Australia for being “Emma Wiggle” (the yellow wiggle) and is looooved by about a million Australian children. This video will show you the crowds she (and the Wiggles) get.
m.ua-cam.com/video/CiUCAsKE5GY/v-deo.html
My 3 year old idolises her.
She uses sign language, dances, is a cinematographer and a passionate spokesperson for endometriosis.
And she still volunteers at her old dance school ...
What a beautiful song and video! I heard the song at the beginning of the show "Under the Vines" and had to look it up immediately. Love it! Blessings.
absolutely beautiful piece of music & the lass is just perfect
Beautiful song 😊
Dancing hands!
This song has a Keith Urban vibe!
that's who i thought it was when i first heard it on Under The Vines :)
Currently, my favorite song! 🥰
One of the most unaffected and stunningly beautiful vocal performances ever.
This. Song. Is. Everything. Immediately when I heard it, I sent it to everyone I could think of. Way to fill my heart with so much joy. What a cool way to portray the lyrics with Australian Sign Language! Thanks for inspiring me, East Pointers. Looking forward to hearing more tunes.
Interesting. I learned something new today. I wonder what the difference is between AUSLAN and ASL? Do accents in sign language even exist?
R.I.P Koady. Thankful for the mandolin lessons he taught me at a music camp in summer 2015. A really nice guy who was so open to talk and never once made me feel unwelcome to talk and hangout with him, Tim and Jake.
Heard the song on CBC, and when I got home I looked it up right away. Realized this wasn't ASL, then realized this was the yellow Wiggle. Now I'm going down a rabbit hole looking up stuff about the Yellow Wiggle again. This is the third time this woman has randomly snuck into my life and blown me out of the water. I am so confused and fascinated.
I found this song whilst going through a breakup with my ex-fiancé. This song has been my rock since then, I will never stop listening to it, it's now my anthem. Thank you so much East Pointers, from the UK.
What wonderful energy she transfer through the video to me, not easy top be sad or low energy when you watch her.
Enjoying your music watching Under the Vines on Acorn tv hi from Aberdeen Washington
Just found this song and album by pure chance....it is absolutely fantastic. I am a big lover of Scot trad bands like Manran, Niteworks, Elephant Sessions etc and this is certainly up there with them...brilliant. A very happy Scot from Fife is now a fan 🏴🏴 🇨🇦 🍁
This video is amazing on so many levels. I'll start with the music the song is awesome and it's a great spin on music that is made here in the Maritimes you guys did an exellent job with this song. Next Emma signing, Emma is amazing and a great advocate for sign language she inspires children all over the world to try sign language and she uses it for many different songs in The Wiggles. Then there's combining the music and signing together. Emma signs in Auslan (Australian sign language) and then we have your song and your band which is Canadian, this helps us be more connected with the people in Australia some people even say that Canadians are very much like Australians and what better way to show it than with this. So all in all this video is amazing and there's so much talent in it in Emma as she signs and dances and you guys as musicians with creating this song really makes the beauty of this video and connecting both countries together. I'd give this video a 10 out of 10.
Congratulations Breanna! You have won the East Pointers merch prize pack! Could you email tim@noisemaker.ca? He will get your info to ship you your prize. Thank you for your beautiful comment!
@@TheEastPointers Thank you and absolutely I will. This is awesome 😊
I'm adding your comment on my Facebook post of this gem. I could not have said it any better. I might also add that the lyrics are also very poignant. Uplifting at any time. The combination of artistry is awesome.
What a beautiful song, and what a lovely surprise to see Emma Wiggle starring in the video! My toddler was especially excited. I have loved the East Pointers for a fair few years now, but it was really cool to see them performing folk music on a few episodes of The Wiggles show that I watch with my son. And now Emma is performing with them- such an unexpectedly cool collaboration!
I wish to cover this with my coming out singing voice, my passed father's guitar, dancing, & sign for my Mom
🤎 Gwynn
TY for keeping me even keeled Gwynnie & most always somehow being able to be there 🫶
GREAT song....going to include it in this weeks playlist....love Emma too...shes sooo gorgeous 🎉
I can't stop listening to this perfect song and watching such a joyful and innocently beautiful dance performance. What a find. Thank you East Pointers. If you never put out another song this has fulfilled your gift.
Graham Wardle(Actor on tv show Heartland) Twitter brought me here...Such a Beautiful Song and Music Video- Beyond Words! Thanks guys "Wintergreen" is on my playlist now-Thanks Graham Wardle-have fun at their show!!!!!
Farewell nan , set sail ⛵️ 😢 ❤️ I love you now and for ever ♥️
I have never seen such beauty in signing and dancing. I cried watching this..and I hope to see more of you signing/dancing. Thank you for bringing love, warmth and beauty to my otherwise boring existence, I am truly blessed to have seen this and I truly and humbly honour you for this piece of heaven. Thank you.
Wonderful song & video!

You're doing well You know you're living it

CH: Wintergreen can't outshine your radiance
Wintergreen or undermine your salience
Wintergreen I love you more than anything
Wintergreen despite the darkness
Some of these days
Let it go But you should know You're on my mind & let it flow
It breaks the other chains and tracks of space and time
And if you grow beyond the world that we defined
Just let me know that you're gonna be alright
I want to tell you before it's too late
You had it all going on right out of the gate
You never faked it or phoned it in
Despite the darkness Some of these days
The way up and the way down are one in the same
I'm calling an audible late in the game
If love is everything, love is pain
Certain spirits are too bright to be tamed
Can't outshine your radiance Or undermine your salience
Or redefine your sentience Despite the darkness
Some of these days
Just found this song it is great. The video is great and thanks to you I can now sing along. Very much appreciate your act of kindness.
This song is amazing and I can't help but to listen to it on repeat. THEN, I saw the music video, all I can say is WOW! Emma's dancing and signing performance was inspiring; a true work of art. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I can't wait to hear the rest of The East Pointers album. Counting down the days till your performance at the Gateway in Calgary.
Such a beautiful song and such a beautiful video to match! She looks so joyous that it somehow makes the song even more lovely!
Absolutely beautiful! Another brilliant song from the East Pointers and love the inclusivity of it being signed. Enjoyable for all!
Was lucky to see the east pointers live at a gig in Inverness last Sunday loved it
Martin, just read your comment from the CBC article about Koadys passing. So I assume Inverness as in Scotland, not Inverness Cape Breton NS. Nice knowing these talented lads and their music reached out over the world. A sad day, I believe their music will continue on.
@@chr970 I can confirm that these lads now have a following in Scotland. I saw them supporting Peat & Diesel in Edinburgh back in November and I instantly fell in love with their music. Heartbroken that Koady is no longer with us
i think its amazing how they mixed song dance and sign language! makes me wanna learn sign language
Absolutely loving this song and love Emma 'Wiggle' helping our Auslan family to enjoy it as well. BRILLIANT.
So much joy!
spoke right to my heart. thank you so much for this song
First of all, I love Emma! Such a beautiful dancer and artist. Second of all, LOVE this song. I’ve been listening to it on repeat for the past couple days and it just makes you want to dance! Looking forward to lots more music from you guys!!
This is my most favorite music video ever
Had to look this song up when I heard it on Under the Vines. Love the lyrics and melody.
This song makes me feel a combination of all sorts of lovely feelings that i can't quite describe!
Overwhelming joy!
Thank you 💓
An amazing, wonderful song!
Just came across this song and I absolutely love it!!! It communes with my soul. Thank you!!! ❤❤❤
Beautiful song and what a gorgeous place to video with graceful dancing & signing... Love this video on ALL levels! BRAVO!!!
Absolutely beautiful!
Breathe of fresh air
RIP Koady Chaisson
RIP Koady Chaisson , way too young. Condolences to family and friends, their beautiful music lives on.
My Dog 🐕 ❤️ Spotty got a Blanket today , yes I dried it in the Sun 🌞 but beat 💓 this he's finally sleeping 😴 💤 on it Bless 🙌 the Giver
I miss the people. The low tide and farm fresh air. Life can be rough there, but it has built strong people who can empathize with struggles in all forms. God bless that place.
Brilliant song! She looks exactly how this track makes me feel!
Loved the fact that she was signing the song. Didn't twig to it at first, but loved it when I realized that is what she was doing. Felt like I was experiencing the song on a totally different level. Beautifully done!
How can you tease us with this piece of music GOLD and not release the whole album!!! As you can tell, I absolutely adore this song and have had it on repeat since day 1. I have also learnt the banjo riff on my ukulele!!! It was the first time I have ever learnt a tune by ear, but I was desperate to be able to play it 🙃 sooo... thank you three for everything you bring to this world! Hope we see you at Woodford ❤️
Rest in peace koady
I almost didn't remember a big journey is kinda exciting 😳 hey 👋 wintergreen
My wife turned me onto this years ago, she's Canadian, so so good! TY for all the dances since then!
I'm a East Pointers newbie . This song is beautiful. Waited 7 weeks but just listened to them reach Number 1 on CBC top 20 countdown . You guys deserve this spot with this lovely creation!!
Love ❤️ you more than anything ❤️
Beautiful lyrics. I was googling before the first chorus.
Love the song, love the video, love watching my two year old dancing to the song and saying “Emmaaaa”!
Beautiful song and great video! The sign language is so beautifully presented. Well done!
Dancing with my two daughters at 5:30 am before school. Feeling the love from your song!!
How can light shine brighter ✨️ 💖
This song sends a shiver down me spine.
A beautiful video for a beautiful song. This pairing makes my heart happy. ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely brilliant! As soon as I noticed she was signing in the teaser video, I immediately clicked on this link and will be playing on repeat for many weeks to come. It's so touching to be able to both hear and watch it, it's honestly a phenomenal song that was brought to life as a video in the most perfect way.
First time we saw the East pointers was at the peat and Diesel concert in Dunoon scotland we had taken my fouteen year old daughter to her first concert . And we were blown away by the East pointers.?
Love this and just wish I could dance like her
This song and this video and this band are probably my personal greatest personal musical discovery of the past two years. Such brilliant positivity!
Heard this on Under the Vines and loved it. Then saw the amazing Emma dancing to it. ❤
I wish they'd do some more seasons of that wonderful show!
Great marketing! I found out about this while looking up Tim Chaisson while watching The Wiggles with my daughter.
Thank you for coming to Peebles. A really wonderful night and hope you can come back to Scotland again soon. Take care.
My wonderful fiancee and I went to see you when you came to Nannup Music Festival in WA, Australia. It WOULD have been 11/10 for us both, had we not turned to our left and seen one of our superiors from our head office dancing about. Knowing that the very person who is giving me hell relaxes and chills out to amazing music makes the whole situation more human. 12/10 every day of the week. Thanks for everything
My school is performing this❤
This song is on repeat in our house! Way to go guys! You created a real gem with this one!
Boss love ❤️ this song 🎵 🙌
Love this song and the concept of signing the words! Genius!
If you need me, I'll be simultaneously dancing and crying to this song.
It really feels like it's an Ed Sheeran song the way the singer sings. It's crazy and the song is just chef's kiss
This song deserves more views.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this song. I have been singing it all sunny weekend :) Life is good. Love "Wintergreen"
Just to be clear, comment on this post or on the UA-cam video itself? :) (I'll comment on both just to be safe)
The teaser you posted for Wintergreen excited me and I was literally counting the days until it's full release. I woke up the morning of the release and the first thing I did was listen to it and I was instantly in love! Since then I have had it on repeat and added it to all of my favourite playlists. If I feel myself beginning to falter, I listen to it and find myself carried away to a brighter place, where I can't help but feel happy and rejuvenated.
Then the video was released and the happiness in my heart just exploded. I am hearing myself, but spent many years learning New Zealand Sign Language and have many wonderful friends in the Deaf community. Sign Language is such a beautiful language and it translates so beautifully and seamlessly into art forms, in this case dance and music. It makes my heart happy to see it expressed in this manner. And especially as a part of a music video for my favorite band of all time. The video captures the essence of the song, carefree and whimsical, full of joy and hope. It is beautifully presented and a joy to behold. I am beyond thankful for what your music does for myself and so many others.
splendidly beautiful and fitting :) I'm counting down the days until this talented trio comes back to Vancouver!
Just saw The East Pointers at Hamilton's Super Crawl on Sunday.
This song is my favorite! Very catching upbeat tune.
I love everything about this 💛🇨🇦
Loved the song n d video
What a way of shooting a video so creative
Very nice and sweet
Saw the guys at the Stromness Folk fest in Orkney last weekend (twice) and they were sick!
Love you Emma
I love this video because people who are deaf can also watch this video. I love that Emma’s in it because she’s my favourite wiggle and I love the song as well
This is lovely. This song is so upbeat and full of hope. The lyrics are so intelligent and I’m so glad this video is inclusive. Everything about it (down to seeing my nephews favorite wiggle) makes me happy. Wonderful job!
Whoops 🤭 I'm addicted to thus song 🎵 😬
Excellent video. I hope the style catches on - access is beautiful.
Amazing band , my thoughts and prayers to all that know and love them !
