A puzzle of videos from 1926.This song(Heron Blue) inspired me to create this video is pictures of life from some nothern european countries...It shows many diferent social layers with not any particular order.Enjoy!


Heron Blue - Sun Kil Moon
LYRICS:

Don't cry my love don't cry no more
A crashing sky a rolling screen
A city drowning Gods black tears
I cannot bear to see


She lay under the midnight moon
Her restless body stiring
Until the magic morning hour
Like poison it succumbs her


Her baby skin her old black dress
Her hair it twists round her necklace
Constricts and chokes like ruthless vines
To sleep she overtakes her?


Her room is painted Heron Blue
Lit by candlelight and chandelier
And from her headboard perched so high
A million dreams have passed her


Don't cry my love don't cry no more
It overwhelms my breaking heart
A minor swell of violins
I cannot bear to hear them


A mother shepherds her young birds
she fills their mouths and warms their souls
Til they are strong and good to fly
Away from her alone she'll die


Cradle on quiet old oak limbs
As heaven blue her light fails
A breath of soot into her lungs
A life, a journeys end in one


Don't sing that old sad hymn no more
It resonates inside my soul
It haunts me in my waking dream
I cannot bear to hear it


Don't play those violins no more
Their melancholic overtones
They echo off the floor and walls
I cannot bear to hear them

I like what you have done here and I enjoy watching it, but are you sure these films are from 1926? I don't think they had color film back then.

Still, great video.

@SolemnHeretic it's a restored and colorised video. This footage is from 1926 guaranteed! :)

i think radiohead would provide a good cover of this song.

[Flyeire]

The disturbing thing is this is like the Ireland of the early 1960's...
