I have been sitting on this vid for well over a week. Partly because of personal reasons, partly because it's the one I have created entirely on my own that I am actually proud of. Any artist or writer or vidder, I'm sure, can say that is a rarity.
Of course, with any piece of art, the artist will look at it later and go "Oh my god, what the hell was I thinking when I ______? It would be so good if I had done ______ instead!"
When
tzikeh pointed me to some new software, for something else entirely, I couldn't resist the opportunity to then go on and re-edit a few of my videos. I have only done this one so far, but there will be others. Much higher-quality footage, with a picture size of 740x480 instead of 320x240. It also gave me an opportunity to fix up a few moments that could have been better.
This vid, more than any other, is my baby. I am touchy about it. It makes
deerdancer cry. The very idea of seeing any "Ewww, ENYA!?" comments set my teeth on edge. But I'm unleashing this version out on the world anyway, finally.

One day, one night, one moment
My dreams could be tomorrow
One step, one fall, one falter
East or west,
Over earth or by ocean
One way to be my journey
This way could be my
Book of days
No day, no night, no moment
Can hold me back from trying
One flag, one fall, one falter
I'll find my day maybe
Far and away
Far and away
One day, one night, one moment
With a dream to be leaving
One step, one fall, one falter
Find a new world across a wide ocean
This way became my journey
This day brings together
Far and away
This day brings together
Far and away
Far and away
