  • I enjoy these...

  • fantastic work and a great song BIG THUMBS UP

  • Hi, In fact here I amon here to repeat that's a materpiece.Paul

  • This is tremendous...

  • great song, jay is my hero!

  • Thanks for this upload. I love this side of Jay & the video matched the mood most excellently.

  • I like black and white. Great song, too!

  • Constantly come back on here end re and re and relisten this song. Whta does it matter who made the video? It's perfect, full of feeling and push the music in our hearts. Masterpiece.

  • This video and song are gems.

  • next to these huge mounds across the highway there is a just as big landfill quite funny or sad not sure which they probably destroyed some native's resting place just to dump some trash

  • This is a good video. Just letting you all know that that this song is about the cahokian indians also called the Mississippians. they were all over middle of the before the white contact. they built huge mounds which are a historic landmark. They thrived to over 100, 000 people then they mysteriously left the city and or vanished not really sure havent been to the mounds in a while to see. it is a real place near where jay farrar, jeff tweedy, myself and others grew up just east of St. Louis

  • i have been watching this video from time to time for a while now but have never commented. but now i have to since i just remembered how amazing this video is. the images fit the song so well, and this also became my favorite jay farrar song because of this video. thank you!

  • So beautiful - thank you for this lovely montage.

  • Great video. Amazing! I found this video a long time ago and I'm glad I stumbled on it again. Thanks for making this!

  • Mr. terr0rkitten, I have been fixated on this production of yours for two days. It is as masterful as Jay's music. It captures the Dialectic and is painfully transformational.

    Thank you for sharing your artistry.

  • "full of our finest throw away things" awesome

  • great stuff, Jay Farrar writes honest music no no frills love it

  • I have never hear of Jay Farrar before, but his music aided by your video adaptation make me want to devle deeper into Farrar's works.

  • they used to call it "alt country" now they call it "americana"

  • I liked Alt Country!

  • lol from a brit thats a rarity, but you of all people came up with an awesome video... couldn't imagine it better

  • I will wait for you in the green green spaces, wearing our post-industrial faces

  • Did Jay make this video or was this a fan?

  • I made it. I have received several tongue lashing about how it is inaccurate with regard to the music. I only mention that in case that was an issue- I like to play, find pleasing footage that might increase the enjoyment of listening to a great tune

  • certainly was not downplaying it.... love the imagery.... you have my regard

  • by when and how? I mean how didin you find this footage?

  • Hi, thanks for the kind words. It was footage from a film archive - I just poked about until I found something that was pleasing with the music.

  • This is beautiful.  It is perfectly done.

  • where and how did you find this??

  • just a note to let you know I;m still alive and kicking and still loving the vid.... Townes van zandt too.........

  • Nice video. Jay writes some of the most relevant and honest music.

  • Great song -- great video.

    I've been to Cahokia. Worked at Falling Springs. Look forward to coming back some day.

  • Beautiful....waiting to be undone. Thank you for this!

  • I like and thanks for posting it.

    Jay Farrar!

  • Well, if I had been able to find footage of the Cahokian Mounds I would have used it. As you can imagine there ain't a lot of it kicking around the web!

  • Nice, but what about the St Louis area, the Mississippi, and the 11 th century mounds with the people vanished and built upon?
