To Live Is To Fly (Guy Clark covering Townes Van Zandt)

[5jeanbittersweet]

How'd you train those clouds to dance to Guy Clark? Came at a good time besides, and transverse and forwards :)

[seaottersoup]

@5jeanbittersweet I just played the song, and the clouds were happy to cooperate. Generally, they're good judges of music. xD

A good tune

sung by Guy

@cjthemusicman "The choice is yours to make, time is yours to take"... Thanks for taking some time here. :)

And I thought it was going to be filled with contrails. I must be "getting too big for my britches".

I enjoyed the music far more than I thought I would. Fine work, young man!

[seaottersoup]

@effmeelsetosay Sorry to get your hopes up about the flying... I guess I was thinking more along the lines of a magic carpet than a Boeing jet... Glad you managed to glean some enjoyment out of the experience anyway.

Townes Van Zandt was, in my opinion anyway, a great songwriter. Fortunately this song's lyrics didn't become completely jarring when sung against a sky video.

[effmeelsetosay]

Sorry, wait 5 minutes, I still have to watch the video to give my true response...

[effmeelsetosay]

"on a good day to fly." and "Comments welcome!". Huh? I think it is done uploading I will watch it now. Standby for further comment...

Thank you for this video! You've done a great job again! Your recorded footage is very beautiful, as someone would travel through all these clouds :) Guy Clark covered Townes Van Zandt's song very well in my opinion :) Keep up the good work. Video and music fit perfectly :D

[seaottersoup]

@Nicolas11x12TECH Thanks Nic! I recorded sky for 7 or 8 hours that day, and most of the footage was usable -- lots of interesting motion and changes of shape. I was relieved the next day when the sky was completely cloudless, and I wasn't tempted to shoot more. :-P

So much beauty...

You've used this guy's music before, right? Remind me where please. :D

[seaottersoup]

@AnnaHeartsTheWorld I haven't used Guy Clark before, but I've used Townes Van Zandt singing his own songs twice: No Place To Fall (over a year ago) and I'll Be Here In The Morning (last January).

I've so often wished I could sail away on the clouds...this one made me feel like I did for just a little while.

Have I mentioned I really love your vidoes???

[seaottersoup]

@aplacetohideaway Hey, I don't mind if you happen to repeat yourself from time to time...

[nllleonard]

Gorgeous images. Contemplating clouds is my favorite thing to do when flying.

Lovely music to go with. Thanks for another beautiful video! NAncy

[seaottersoup]

@nllleonard Hey, I've been a bit obsessed with clouds lately myself. Maybe you've noticed!

[nllleonard]

@seaottersoup I'll feature one of these beautiful videos real soon, friend. I'm thinking this one...

[seaottersoup]

@nllleonard Thanks, that's really nice of you!
