Beautiful, thoughtful song. This is magic. I am a Native Canadian Indian and I see his true spirit.

A living legend

Am i right in saying Mike Harding did a version of this song in the early 80's?. I can remember him singing a song about the changing seasons on his old tv show.

This song was written by Dave Goulder - fabulous!

A beautiful interpretation, haunting and atmospheric. I love the simple seasonal theme of this song....very grounding. Cheers Christy!

In my world he is officially a shaman, a storyteller, and a true reflection of feeling and profound human heart laid out for all to see.

It was written by Dave Goulder. Mike Harding did record an excellent version, it's on Bomber's Moon; download it from 7digital. Bert Jansch recorded a good version too.

A blessed storyteller that is a part of creation. We have forgotten how to tell stories, and give them meaning! Instead we sit transfixed in front of the TV. We have to wake up!

It's funny. In this age of instant gratification and unfortunately, manipulation; it is songs like these that are always passed on. A simple but poignant realization that we are part of the earth and the seasons are the rhythm of our lives. Especially here in Canada. Great old classic.
