First Vid. Created because I'm experimenting before I do an honest to God video.

Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone
Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone

From her hands they fell, children of the ocean's swell
With ice's twinkle given sight
She offered them a name, and seals they all became
And laughing, took a coat of dappled light.

Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone
Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone

From her hands they fell, ever in the sea to dwell
Nimble fingered, quick and lithe
She offered them a name, and otters they became
Keepers of her secrets in the ice.

Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone
Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone

From her hands they fell, the mightiest of all
Slow and gentle as the tides
She offered them a name, and whales they all became
To tread the paths the lesser are denied

Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone
Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone
Sedna roamed the deep, the cold forgotten deep, no-one wants to be alone

  • This song is absolutely amazing! Are you talking about the Goddess?  Or the planet?

  • The song is referring to the Inuit goddess, Sedna.

  • I'm detecting a distinct mammalian bias here. Was Senda too busy to offer a name to the Giant Isopods, or even a mollusc or two?

  • LOL

    Maybe she was trying to ignore any trilobites...those things would creep me out....

  • you r the best^^ for putting heather dale on youtube.she is the best

  • I was very happy to get her newest CD so I could help put Heather Dale on the map a bit more. She is a very good singer.

  • Sedna is an inuit deity. Her story is rather horrible. In one version ,she refuses to marry and her father takes her out into a boat and dumps her into the freezing water. She clings to the edge of the boat and he cuts off her fingers and she sinks into the cold water. Her fingers become the seals, otters and whales. There are other myths, but all end with Sedna's fingers being cut off and becoming seals, otters, and whales.

see all

  • Dolphins=Smallest of the whales

  • awesome I really like how you put the lyrics in the thingie below the vid lol

  • I AM IN LOVE!!!!<3<3<3 ;3

  • @xBleachfan2000x I'm not sure, maybe Dolphins don't live in the area? I don't know much about Dolphins.

  • @Wolfan00 Then what about dolphins?

  • Some of the breathing really sounds like panting of snarling wolfs. That's really cool! I love this song like all of her songs it brings such beautiful pictures to my mind.

  • Thank you all for these great comments...this song came into my life last night at Faerieworlds/Eugene Oregon. What a talent and what a storyteller and count me as a new devotee.

  • i love this song, thx for uploading :)

  • @genuinelyenigmatic The Fire Eternal?

  • @221b To the Inuit people seals and whales were a major food source, so it made sense to revere them as the goddess' gifts. Molluscs often live in deep waters, so the Inuit, who live in the arctic areas where the sea is frozen most of the year, most likely hardly ever even saw such creatures.
