from The album "Dream Harder"

director: Jeff Stein

I stood upon the balcony with my brand new bride
The clink of bells came drifting down the mountainside
When in our sight something moved
- lightning eyed and cloven hooved -
The great God pan is alive!

He moves amid the modern world in disguise
It's possible to look into his immortal eyes
He's like a man you'd meet anyplace
Until you recognise that ancient face
The great God pan is alive!

At sea on a ship in a thunder storm
On the very night that Christ was born
A sailor heard from overhead
A mighty voice cry, "Pan is dead!"
So follow Christ as best you can
Pan is dead! Long live Pan!

From the olden days and up through all the years
From Arcadia to the stone fields of Inisheer
Some say the gods are just a myth
But guess who I've been dancing with -
The great God Pan is alive!

  • the drummer is Carla Azar. I think.

  • Who is the drummer ?????????????????

  • Saw this video once. Just once on 120 minutes in 1993 i think? It has haunted me ever since. Don't know why. Glad to hear it again.

  • @Bellix1996 - hi, what does this mean in English please? κλιτη

  • Pan is alive, simply because you understood this sentence.

  • Never mind your religious talk. Just look at that drummer! Need any other evidence that Pan is alive? :-)

  • @TDJCCSGC see the ancient wold with ancient eyes

  • my fav waterboys song....just sublime to listen to ..

  • Great song. "How do you follow 'The Pan Within'?" looks like an unanswerable question. Turns out it isn't, thanks to the Waterboys.

  • @Yannisastra well, what i know is that pan was thought to be a god supporting the animals,and is now associated to satan by fools.....we say ΠΑΝ and ΠΑΝΑΣ....δε νομιζω οτι εχει ν κανει με την κλιτη λεξη πας και τα υπολοιπα που λες μου ειναι τελειως πρωτακουστα, δε νομιζω οτι ισχυει κατι τετοιο :Ρ
