I have installed a permanent modification to my brain. All it does is play this song when I'm not feeling happy (also it plays Dunkirk and Captured when I need to kick some ass).
Wow, I just looked up the lyrics. I always thought it was behind the cowshed the plowman is taking a pee but it's really take a peek at the farmers daughter who's hanging her undies. A very good song regardless.
I love Breathless, but this song sounds like it should have been on a Caravan album, maybe because Sinclair is singing. When I saw them in Southampton during the Breathless tour, the lineup was (I think) the Andys, Latimer and Ward, Richard Sinclair, David Sinclair and Mel Collins - the best sax player I have heard, and that includes John Hellawell.
The LP Camel "Breathless" is the first album that I bought of Camel and is the most like. I like also the song Rhayader and the songs that following the saga.
El LP de Camel "Breathless" es el primer album que me compre y el que mas me gusta. Me gusta tambien la canción de "Rhayader" y las siguientes de la saga.
Esta canción Down in the Farm tiene mucho poderio.
I'm not a "Camel expert" but this album is pure brilliance for me, down to the last track. Yes it may not be sophisticated enough for some, but for us common people it's perfect :-)
People who are fans of Caravan tends to like this album abit more since half of that bands members had joined camel for it, including the writer/singer of this song.

Your kidding right? Echoes, Summer Lighting, Sleepers...this song is an obvious attempt at commercial success.I seen Sinclaire in Chicago, as a soloist ( his partner didn't show for the gig)and fell asleep at the bar. Nothing so boring as the hyped Canterbury sound.
yeah i know. right down to the bleep in it. but i still dig it. all camel fans very from one to the others. there are some people who love harbor or tears and stashonary travaler but thous albums blows camel poo...in my opinions. but i love nude. and ofcorce all the early albums. my first camel lp was moonmadness. it was a instend love for the band. the i got snow goose next then like brethless and raindances the same day. this was like 7 years ago.
Good Vid, Great song - Loved this since it came out in '78 - Richard's vocals suit the song. Sounds like Andy (Latimer) is playing a Stratocaster - brilliant rhythm - Still Love 'Summer Lightning' even more though !
but...guns'n roses did a cover of this song? O.o is this the original song? DDD:

This song made my day during my teen days, Camel surprised me with the Rajaz album, when in the 90s were nothing but commercial music.
