Funeral rites - Seamus Heaney

This video contains a shortened version of the awesome "Funeral Rites" by Seamus Heaney (see right).

The music is by the Finnish melodic metal band The Man Eating Tree.

This is my first attempt in this field and though I hope to get better yet, I rather enjoyed composing this.

Edit: Next time, I may even let you watch my videos at first try, who knows? I am sorry for the mistake and thank you for pointing it out to me. ;-)

The Tollund Man Seamus Heaney

Now, the lyric of this man is one of the loves of my life.
As I read him, he goes back into ancient history and digs up (no mere idiom with him, mind you) atrocities of the past to put them into relation with modern life. This video demonstrates my point quite well, I think.
