A Tribute To The Islanders

While scanning through youtube I stumbled across this gem. I was looking for a nice version of a traditional Newfoundland song of the same name. I've never heard of Nightwish in my life and probably wouldn't have but something told me I should check this video out and so I did and I am pleased. Nightwish is a Finnish band who alot of their songs are based on mythology and folk lore.  Such a beautiful song about the struggles of mariners, us Newfies know all about it so it kinda hits home. Beautiful instrument play and a very nice voice from the lead. The video is done very well, kinda going in the direction of the weird and abnormal but I like it. The old mariner in the video is what a typical sailor looks like and is also what a typical Newfie looks like.The video looks alot like a Tim Burton movie or the movie Big Fish. Take a look at the video and be blow away by the sights and sounds of a well produced song.
