And ain't this really something, we're walking but our feet don't touch the floor, anymore!

Such a beautiful song. Thanks Elysium although the video is not available in my country. The world is getting weirder every day.

Thats strange Rena, sorry you cant see them, dont think I have seen these videos on here before either, there's 5 acoustic videos in total, an interview and the official videos from Futive and Full Steam from a company called Vevo.

It's just that in Germany the GEMA and youtube are fighting over money... which is the reason why we can't see half of the videos on there. Quite short sighted if you ask me because the videos on youtube are one of the main means of advertising for artists these days. But back to the song you've posted. Good one. Really good one!

What was the answer? I always thought he was just jamming in the studio clip and it wasn't meant to be included.

I can't see it over here in the US either. I can see Vevo videos of other artists, though.

what a brilliant and rightly asked question it was. i think he said something like 'it was a bit over the top' and 'too obvious'. but i'm not 100% sure. awww, the fugitive harmonica. one of dg's biggest mistakes, leaving out the harmonica and not have me as his producer.

This is one of my favorite songs. Bluewater and I had the pleasure of being in the audience in Toronto when it made its debut. David proclaimed it was the first time they had ever played the song in public.

i agree philly, it's one of my favourites as well. i always loved those anti-hymns, really quiet songs on dg's records. descember on andam was a bit like that to me. and transformation kind of said: there is much more of it where that came from. and then we got foundling. damn, i wanna see this video.

Oh, and where can I find Fugitive with a harmonica? I don't recall seeing that before.

Oh ok, I had seen that video. Thank you. I remember that part now, but I just figured it was him messing around. I do like it better without. All the instruments are pounding together, so those long notes on the harmonica didn't really fit in and the rest of the music is full enough with out. But wow, I do love those behind the scenes videos. I love seeing the work, inspiration, and care that goes into making these songs.

Yes thats the one RyanRunner, has that video of the interview been posted on here before, because I have definitely seen or heard it? Not so sure whether I have seen the videos before, dont think I have these videos of just David and Neil were recorded at the same time as the interview(same clothing), but are nearly 3 years old, there isn't many views or comments on any of the videos, no one that I can see from here apart from Dollpartz, she has commented on the Transformation video twice(only comments). I watch that many videos of DG that sometimes I'll go back to them years later and the video feels like new all over again. Jackdaw Draw The Line Fugitive Babylon Transformation At the end of the videos it says 2009 Polydor records, hope this helps and you can all get to view them somehow.
