Hey my lovely. This video was certainly not craptacular. I rather liked it, and the music was well suited for story. You had some great facial expressions too. That's something which always wins me over. :)
@bairoj That's just retarded to say....Ozzy is a rock icon as well... Comparing Jethro Tull and Ozzy Osbourne is hardly an apple to apple comparison.. They have completely different styles, and if you don't think Ian was a junkie you're WRONG! They all were back then.
i just like that this song mentions aqualung. eyeing little girls with his bad intents :)... the video makes somewhere between little and no sense. sorry
I found the video to have quite an endearing quality. Thank you, Arren. And I especially like the juxtaposed ricking horse motif with the exercise bicycle. And a nice little effect with the overlay and posterization.
I can only speculate on the purpose of the horse. I'll not pretense to know what it meant to the artist.
How many dumn kids listen to Jethro Tull? I'm a 30 year old educated woman. You can try to sound British, but without a sense of irony and keen wit, it's useless, you mos' definitely need an open-handed slap in da mouf.
And another thing, why is it that the most talent-less people are always the most critical? There's a song written about people like you by Jethro Tull, called "Thick As A Brick"
i never would have thought of mixing cross-eyed marry with RHW, i mean, i jsut read that book last semester in AP English! idk, i woulda figured like heavy horses or something
It's excellent to find someone else who would pick over evything else. i love the beginning, with the actors nameplates falling off!!!
Even my 11 year old son likes Jethro Tull. Cross Eyed Mary is my favorite Tull song. Thanks for the caption because I always wanted to know the words. The bassline is awesome!
there was like a really lame video on lifetime or we or some chick channel that my mom was watching, and they had a little girl who like guessed the lottery because of her rocking horse... lol yeahhh oh well, this is an awesome song though.
uhh...iirc...its a story where the kid knows who will win the horse race as long as he rides his "rocking horse"...then goes crazy or somethin'... ...I still don't get the connection...good video I guess.
old enough to have a heart attack, and yet he was still there with his flute and we were like wtf..
i pay my dues to such an artist..
