    RED RISING/PIERCE BROWN - Song of Persephone (Cover Video) | Sam Clark
    Song of Persephone from Pierce Brown's incredible Red Rising Trilogy by Australian actor/singer-songwriter Sam Clark (Grease: Live/Neighbours)
    Lyrics:
    Listen, listen, remember the waneOf sun’s fury and waving grain We fell and fell and danced alongTo croon a knell of rights and wrongs
    And
    My son, my son remember the burnWhen leaves were fire and seasons turnedWe fell and fell and sang a songTo weave a cell all Autumn long
    And Down in the vale hear the reaper swing,
    the reaper swing, the reaper swingDown in the vale hear the reaper singA tale of winter long
    My girl, my girl remember the chillWhen rains froze and snows did killWe fell and fell and danced alongThrough icy hell to their winter song
    My love, my love remember the cries
    When winter died for spring skies
    They roared and roared but we grabbed our seed
    And sowed a song against their greed
    My son, my son remember the chains
    When gold ruled with iron reins
    We roared and roared and twisted and screamed
    For ours, a vale of better dreams
    And
    Down in the vale hear the reaper swing,
    the reaper swing, the reaper swingDown in the vale hear the reaper sing
    A tale of winter done.

    @marcellboruzs7040 Před 4 lety +99

    The "My son, my son" verse makes me think that the Reds knew all along, somewhere deep in their hearts. Darrow's mom for sure did. And of course, the reaper parts foreshadow the Rising of the Reaper. Man, I love this series and you made it a great song.

    Your version of this song is bloodydamn haunting and beautiful.
    Your tone of voice is perfect and that you just used a guitar to accompany it makes it so intense... made me think of the moment when Darrow sang it to Mustang.

    Best version if heard yet.
    I knew the Reds right away, grandma taught me words that once carried the death penalty; and a coal mine is a coal mine even in space.
    Plus there was Dancer, "we're not terrorist, we're empire breakers." and I realized the writer knew us as well.

    Im a little late to the party, but here none the less. This is a great Cover man, and I hope Pierce Brown decides to use it when the movie/show comes out. I think if it could be somehow matched with 'Eo' singing it, that might turn into an amazing Opening.
