I have watched them all but cannot place it and am just curious! Most of the other clips I can place ( but not all for ex. the radio volume knob does not seem to be in an episode???) thank you sturgeslhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09110875978529469834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7379581147262228210.post-3166935869030697642014-08-18T10:10:19.288-04:002014-08-18T10:10:19.288-04:00The lyrics are from a famous poem by Robert Louis ...The lyrics are from a famous poem by Robert Louis Stevenson, one sung to the Skye Boat Song tune.

As mentioned, "The Skye Boat Song" about Bonnie Prince Charlie's escape to the Isle of Skye with the help of Flora Macdonald after the Battle of Culloden. Interesting tie-in, don't you think? There are some alternate lyrics that start out "Sing me a song of a lad that is gone, Say could that lad be I." My guess is that Bear McCreary connected that to a certain disappearing lass and ran with it!Frannienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7379581147262228210.post-41190950686208134192014-07-27T14:50:29.359-04:002014-07-27T14:50:29.359-04:00It's everything one would want - except, they ...It's everything one would want - except, they never went to Skye. It's going to be a couple of books before knowledge of the Prince fleeing there comes in - if at all. But it is riveting. Sye Boat Song always one of my favorite tunes; I have it by various musicians. I think if was composed by a woman in 1888 or thereabouts. leaves on the Raney Treehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711219595014372212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7379581147262228210.post-8610112395017007102014-07-27T11:50:39.543-04:002014-07-27T11:50:39.543-04:00I can't watch it. :(I can't watch it. :(Nenyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00949732461243067084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7379581147262228210.post-90582357617155510832014-07-26T21:41:30.860-04:002014-07-26T21:41:30.860-04:00i'm still a mess after hearing it and especial...i'm still a mess after hearing it and especially after watching the opening credits.<br /><br />My take on it:<br />I loved the acapella opening paired with the stag visual, and as the song gained ground so did the various scenes showing a mix of future/present. <br />The lyrics were haunting and could be interpreted from different POV's, Frank's, Jamie's and Claire's.<br />Like I said, I'm a mess every time I listen to it because I visualise three people losing a huge part of themselves.<br />btw great post!<br /><br />MelAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08831989158014841136noreply@blogger.com
