This song reminds me of when i visited Paris in August of '99. There was a big solar eclipse, and when i was walking to the park to view its fore-coming cast an eerie shadow on a body of water where some beautiful swans were recreating. Such beautiful poetry, and i always remember Paris when i hear it ; )

This is such a great song, unique in its sublime beauty. It has been covered also by Mary Hopkin and Kate Bush - both giving their own brilliant interpretations in different but equally mesmerising ways.

@geofbrit59 Check out Kate Bush's version - sublime!

Love the movie If It's Tuesday This Must Be Belgium. Did not know he had recorded it himself had only heard Mary Hopkins (Donovan plays & sings on that one also) version.
-
You and I have the same taste in art and music. It was nice to see some Grimshaw! Nice work.
-
This is in my opinion, the best version of this song, while the flute is nice, hearing it with just Donovan singing and guitar is very, very clean beautiful.
-
Please could someone tell me the name of the painting (and the artist) which appears 3rd in this video. I remember seeing it about 20 years ago but have forgotten everything about it.
Best wishes
David

Thanks so much for posting. Donovan performs this song in a coffee house-setting in the 60's movie "If it's Tuesday, this must be Belgium". Just finished watching the movie, and wanted to find it.
