I really, really like the cinematography of this video.
It just works for me artistically. The song is pretty good too.

Sweet song and sweet girl. Enjoyed the fiddle.

Melancholy. Youth seem to have lost their way as they did in the 60's.

Melancholy--a good description. Sad song for such a pretty girl who looks so healthy and appears to have so much going for her.

He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.

Yes, melancholy is a good word for it.
At the same time, it's almost a beautiful view of a short life.
Music like this seems rare today. The lyrics really speak to me.

"The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had, just enough time"

"If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song"

"A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I’ll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I’m a goner
And maybe then you’ll hear the words I been singin’
Funny when your dead how people start listenin’"

I liked the song very much, enough to do some research on the group. They look like teenagers but acording to the info I found, if it is correct, she is in her mid 20's. I thought she might be somewhere around 18 at the most.

At the end of the clip the book it shows is open to a poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson called The Lady of Shalott. If you are interested here's a link to the poem:

Did you know that poem before the thread?

If so, many kudos on a Western education sir. :)

I personally used to drift off into dreams over that poem (and many others, some even unreadable to most anglo-saxon worded prose).

Oh, thanks. Ever read any Chaucer? I enjoy that too.

Yes, this is The Lady Of Shalott, clearly from the imagery and lyics. And no better modern image to portray her than this fine lass.

If youth is looking back to the truth of the ages, I'm impressed. Well done. Wish GenX (my generation) had been so focused. Though frankly, most of us were reading Ayn Rand and are now Tea Party types. Personally though, I can withstand Randians and the mixing of classical literature types. If we have to ignore/exclude 'tweeners' and "gen Y" so much the better. :)

Actually I'm re-reading the Canterbury Tales now, in the original middle English. Just finished The Knights Tale. For followers of the thread, Shakespeare wrote in early Modern English. Chaucer wrote in middle English (quite germanic) and Aelfred the Great and others in Old English (almost pure Germanic as in most couldn't understand it, we were then theodesic, aka "the people" who spoke in a tongue understandable by those in Germany, Norway, Sweden and Denmark), well he was quite unintelligible.

It's a beautiful tongue. We lost a lot, by adopting Norman French loan words.

English changes quickly. Some of the changes have been good but others haven't.

True. The adaptability is good, but we've absorbed way too much of the Roman tongue, IMO. We need to cleave it from ourselves, if you get my understanding. :0

The original Anglo-Saxons were not unlike the Celts, and they were very independent, all armed, and all considered themselves free (the defining trait of a free man from a slave was the right to be armed).

We've lost a lot, and gained some. The lady in the video is beautiful, in body and soul. Makes me wish I was 20 again.
