    Je constateert nét dat het met de Ierse folk goed gaat (Lankum, Oxn), en dan zijn er bijvoorbeeld ook nog de 17-jarige Muireann Bradley en deze muzikant. Wat een weelde!

    Not a good video for your epic music.

    • @davidflaneau2810
      @davidflaneau2810 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed, should have been cut with alot of moving images. Some kind of road movie, cos it's definitely a driving song. This was shot beautifully tho.

      Ok. I am not saying this to change your mind or nothing but instead because I haven't been able to get it out of my head. No harm meant, I see where you're coming from
      But honestly?
      I think it's a better video BECAUSE it feels like a driving song but it's so static visually.
      Most of the video IS driving and road. But there's no freedom in it, no joy. It's all overshadowed by crushing discontent and THAT, LADS. IS THE POINT OF THE SONG. That disconnect between tone of the lyrics and the music itself mirrors the disconnect with the music and the video WHICH IN TURN MIRRORS that disconnect from labor and your life as you are bled dry, going in endless fruitless circles?? All that is the heart and soul and GUTS of the piece.
      Is it great to watch?
      Meh. But as an art piece, the image is potent and the point? masterfully made.
      Fuckin love the video with the song.

      @@boxofswords First time listening to the song, as well as seeing the video, and I came down to check out the comments to see what the folk have to say. Strangely, I feel like your reply has managed to take the thoughts that were stuck in my head as concepts that could not be put to word, and found words for them.
