Ophelia... My Favourite Music Video Of All Time...

[motherendurance]

Dearest Far-Away Friends,

I'm not feeling too good right now, and I doubt this video is helping but it's so beautiful, I though I'd share.

I have no idea if anyone would find this interesting, but I think this is probably the greatest music video (or short art film) ever made. Of course it doesn't hurt that it's just about my favourite song of all

Dearest Dee,

I think I am going to keep this quote from you handy for the bad nights when you are afraid to sleep, 'cause you know the night terrors are waiting to pounce.

"...Sometimes we must seek out those things that speak to us, and resonate, if only to remind us that there are things worth living for, like beauty, and music, and the written word."
~ by, Dee (from Ottawa)

Doesn't that look awesome. You are a hell of a writer dear, that is really beautiful.

Also, holy holy holy HECK...

That song, Know Yourself at Any Age, is amazing, no joke. The lyrics, well, let's just say that I can relate to them. All too well.

{Cry, cry, cry 'til you know why,
I lost myself, identify

I'm not real and I deny,
I won't heal unless I cry
I can't grieve, so I won't grow,
I won't heal 'til I let it go}

Thank you Dee, the sound is so lush, and the meaning is perfect.

And the second song, Treasure Hiding is beautiful and surrealistically dreamlike.

I especially liked this bit of lyric,

{Life places scars
Purify them
Constancy
Purifies new skins
In excelcius
Glee she'll use as fire
Lips spread the fire
Your heart
And you are ready
The lips, the heart
You're the fire, you're the flame
The heart, the soul
Hand in hand, hand in hand}

Their sound is amazingly like Jane Siberry's, I wonder how I missed them? This is totally my kind of music!

What a lot of wonderful gifts Dee, thank you!

PS. Ottawa, cool. That is a very beautiful city! I hope you enjoy (and appreciate!) living amongst all that (comparitively) balmy, temperate weather!
