My mother, Madeline Ricker Arnold, was the woman with the long gray hair in the video. She so enjoyed being included in the video shoot and loved October Project....RIP mom- we miss you.
Did she know Julie and Emil? I have such fond memories of being a "groupie" for October and November Project briefly in the mid 90s. These people's talent was just too big to even comprehend.
This was my mother's favorite band since 1993. I still listen to this, Because it is awesome, but also because it brings back so many wonderful memories of my beautiful mother. I'm so sorry you lost your mother, But maybe her and my mom Jam out to October project together on a higher plane.
@Brandon Moore I'm completely with you. Black Lives DO matter, but I guess I don't understand why, of all of the comments, you chose this comment, where multiple people were mourning their deceased moms, to express that opinion? ABSOLUTELY Black lives matter. ABSOLUTELY George Floyd deserves justice, but people are allowed to have feelings about other painful stuff, too. Make your own comment about it and I'll like that separately, but get out of this one, please? My mom used to sing this WHOLE album to me. When I hear OP, it makes me feel closer to her. That is how I intend to keep it.
I'd love to see and hear her live. Sadly I don't believe I ever will as I won't be travelling to the US any time soon and she doesn't appear to tour overseas.
When this album was released I was managing a record store (remember those?) October project were in indianapolis performing that night at the vogue. The mall that our store was in was attached to a hotel where a lot of bands would stay when they came to town....I played the shit out of this album in our store because everyone who worked there loved it and so did the customers. Low and behold the band happened to wander into the store that day as we were playing the album...earlier that morning we had found out one of our co workers was found dead in the woods ...we were all devastated....I asked mary if they would dedicate "bury my lovely" for stephen at the show that evening and she graciously did...she wasn't sure it was perfect song choice but it was one of his favorites off the album. I wish they had found more success....One of my favorite bands from the 90s
Wow, man. I happened to be working in a record store at the same time. This album had total impact on me. I can't imagine the multiplicity for you. Bless you.
I lost my only child at 8.r5 years old i write songs for him as to honor him i stumbled on october project a couple of years ago and was shocked!! still am..when i lose my inspiration l listen to them and i regain it again!! unbelievable!!!
This music is *_CHILLING._* It made by skin crawl in the most beautiful way when I first heard it, and it still sounds just as perfect all these years later. I love you guys. You've made quite a sound track for my life.
October Project Bury My Lovely is one of my favorite song reminds me of my Grandma Jan who passed away a week before my Birthday!I miss her everyday and I've just unable to get over her passing!
Fascinating! All the whole thing is charming: Mary's voice and face, the way musicians plays, the choirs, the composition and arrangements. Simply... Woooow!
Since I first read this comment like five seconds ago, I have been incarcerated by the tyranny of your poetic prose.....lol. and yeah, they're wonderful,
How is it someone like Mary Fahl with such an incredibly beautiful voice isn’t more well known. A well kept secret but thx to CZcams I found her and her music.
Absolutely beautiful, yet haunting. I've always thought she has the most amazing voice. I'll never get tired of listening to them. Return to Me is another incredibly beautiful song. Fun side note: I saw Mary perform in Seattle a few years ago. She talked a bit about this video. Apparently it was filmed down the road from where I lived in Washington at the time. She also mentioned how dark it is in subject matter.
Great musicians, great music, they all touched our soul with this album. Everytime my Brothers and I listen to them, we are transported to those glory days in the 90's Thanks for your music.
Year after year I come back to this video. I first saw them on Conan O'brien in 94 and I was just floored. The song had such depth and Mary's voice...cmon
Way back in the mid spring of 2012 when I was 19 years old I had a cool dentist I was going to who at the time seemed uniquely kindred and like she understood me in a way no one else there did. After a couple visits of getting my teeth checked up and stuff we began discussing different kinds of music and reciprocating our tastes as I sat in the chair. At some point she brought three or four CDs with her one day and gave them to me. Two of those CDs were the two albums of October project and it took me over 7 years to finally discover what she had given me. I played the orange disc of their debut and it has been a kind of unique meditation. I have been in love with it since the middle of march. I've always felt a spiritual connection to celtic type music. OP is majestic, magical, mystical, and otherworldly.
For over 20 years I've loved and been 'haunted by this song as I didn't know the title or the artist. It's so good to finally find it and I've already listened to it about 100 times.
I wrote a novella with this title about the teenage survivor of child sex abuse. She's a medium who discovers the ghost of a minister that haunts her bedroom in a converted church once abused a girl who was a parishioner.
I first heard this song on satelite tv on MORE MUSIC ,had to have the CD. Listened over and over to it, therapy I guess while living with a violent alcoholic. Life is better now....I still love the song!!!
This is the only true version of The October Project. These 2 albums bring such happiness and heartbreak. The joy of the music and the despair of knowing it can never be again.
Her voice resonates within the beauty of this awesome song...its delivered with such pain & sadness, you can't help being emotionally moved...Actually I always thought the song was about a broken relationship or marriage, until I saw the video for the first time, moments ago...strange enough, this is the only song that I ever play from the album which I have for many years....bury my lovely, hide in your room....forget me now, forget me soon.
That is just my interpretation of it. When the little girl comes out dresses as a ghost and the sheet is soiled and dirty all the other kids run away it further lends itself to that interpretation of being sexually abused and not being able to ever feel clean and feeling shame of thinking everyone else knows. But the beauty of music is that you can take what you want from it. So it can be about any type of abuse and wanting to bury the pain of it away.
What a gorgeous, soaring song. I kick myself for having missed a Mary Fahl show in Pittsburgh a few years ago; I saw the advertisement for the show literally two days after it had happened. RRR!
I bought this album because of this video I saw on VH1 when it was good, when it was an actual video station. The entire album turned out to be fantastic.
Heard this song on the radio in 2016 and couldn’t figure out the name neither did I catch the lyrics since the announcer didn’t mention it after it played. Today Google browser offered to hum a song in the Google app to find it and I tried it 🤯 and I’m here 🎉 amazing tech.
Someone close to me is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse...the lyrics and the brilliant imagery of the directors vision in the video speak volumes. Hard to watch and listen. Very powerful.
I am so grateful for this song and video so well done why isn't there more artists this deep and meaningful..im stunned!!!!!! It reminds me of my son who died at 8.5years old brings tears to my eyes.. astonishing!!!!!!!!
I was 18 when I first heard this and saw the video in 1993. It all began with a vhs tape of Rock Video Monthly I got in the mail. Fell in love with singer right there, lol. Phenomenal musicianship and vocals!
(Lyrics) Cover the mirror Hide in your dreams Forget what they told you Forget what it means A picture, worth a thousand lies The memory and the mirror Nothing but what came before Nothing but a closing door (Chorus)....... A picture worth a thousand lies A thousand words, A thousand eyes Bury my lovely, Hide in your room Bury my lovely, Forget me soon Forget me, Forget me now Forget me not ...................... Cover the madness Cover the fear No one will ever Know you were here A figure in the hallway light Returning like a ghost Something that was left behind Something in a child's mind (Chorus Repeats) A shadow from another time Is waiting in the night Something happened long ago Something that will not let go (Chorus Repeats)
Beginning a video with a little baby inside a grave is quite powerful. Connects you inmediately with the mood and with the song. Makes you uncomfortable and sad, it captures you and makes you pay attention. Sadly, I think many people can feel identify and connected with the theme of this song, because many children suffer for many reasons, and those memories stay within. It happens, it is true, only no one likes to talk about this.
Wow...Powerful. I think the video depicts an older women coming to terms with being sexually abused. All the imagery of the loss of innocence...the child in the ghost costume with the filthy sheets scaring the other kids....the baby in the grave.....the old women and the very end holding the child that was lost. The song and video brings tears to my eyes.
@truffelsnuffler The song is actually about child sexual abuse. The child in the grave is symbolic of the death of innocence. The video flashes to the little girl at different stages in her life and her having to deal with something "that happened long ago, something that will not let go." The video has the flashes of the ominous figure with the key to her room. The last image is powerful with the old woman holding and coddling the baby over the grave. She is conforting the child in herself.
Years ago when I worked at the original House of Blues, I was working the box office the night she was performing. Everyone curious about that night's show I tried my best to get to see the show. Her voice is incredible!
My mother, Madeline Ricker Arnold, was the woman with the long gray hair in the video. She so enjoyed being included in the video shoot and loved October Project....RIP mom- we miss you.
Great taste in music your mother has, Dead can Dance? Loranina Makennit? First I think of with October Project.
Sorry for your loss😞😞
Did she know Julie and Emil? I have such fond memories of being a "groupie" for October and November Project briefly in the mid 90s. These people's talent was just too big to even comprehend.

This album is one of my all time favorites. Her voice is memorizing and haunting. Outstanding!
Great songs and Mary's wonderful bleak voice showcases them all perfectly.
Mary's voice is a National treasure. I've seen her twice in concert
You got it
I'd love to see and hear her live. Sadly I don't believe I ever will as I won't be travelling to the US any time soon and she doesn't appear to tour overseas.

Woah !!!! That’s a haunting story. Sorry for your loss. The band members sounded thoughtful to dedicate the song that evening to your colleague.
I'm sorry to read this story. Peace with you all and to his family.
Wow, man. I happened to be working in a record store at the same time. This album had total impact on me. I can't imagine the multiplicity for you. Bless you.
I lost my only child at 8.r5 years old i write songs for him as to honor him i stumbled on october project a couple of years ago and was shocked!! still am..when i lose my inspiration l listen to them and i regain it again!! unbelievable!!!
I am from Trinidad and Tobago and I am very grateful. This brings back old memories.
Loving this song
Yes me too!!
@@nerissaagard7264 yes !!
When I first heard this band It was a spiritual event, Mary Fahl has one of the most amazing voices ever!
When I first saw their video”bury my lovely” the shot stood up on my arms and I had an Edger Allen Poe moment.
What a beautiful-powerful voice she has! October Project should have not disappeared into obscurity like so many other bands from the 1990s.
One of the greatest songs from a spectacularly beautiful album. OP Rules!!!!
Mary has possibly the maybe the best female voice in the music today
I'd rate her right up there-But what I think would be more difficult to argue with is if you said the most unique voice.
This music is *_CHILLING._* It made by skin crawl in the most beautiful way when I first heard it, and it still sounds just as perfect all these years later. I love you guys. You've made quite a sound track for my life.
This track is an absolute masterpiece.
LOVE THIS!!! I saw them live years ago...they opened for Sarah McLaughlin and the audience was blown away! Never got the props they deserved!
I discovered this song from the movie blown away many years ago I finally looked up the artist and it’s beautiful band
Completely agree!
October Project Bury My Lovely is one of my favorite song reminds me of my Grandma Jan who passed away a week before my Birthday!I miss her everyday and I've just unable to get over her passing!
I’m sorry for your loss. She’s still with you in Spirit.
@@agua9999 Thank you
Fascinating! All the whole thing is charming: Mary's voice and face, the way musicians plays, the choirs, the composition and arrangements. Simply... Woooow!
Check out the song “Black Heart” by Calexico. It’s just as haunting.
czcams.com/video/ZyidcRn3BVk/video.html
Since I first saw this haunting video in 1993, I have been incarcerated by the tyranny of Mary Fahls voice and beauty.
Since I first read this comment like five seconds ago, I have been incarcerated by the tyranny of your poetic prose.....lol. and yeah, they're wonderful,
Haunting. What is more infectious: Mary's voice or her beauty?
Can't I say Both! and be right?
How is it someone like Mary Fahl with such an incredibly beautiful voice isn’t more well known. A well kept secret but thx to CZcams I found her and her music.
What a band. I remember the good old days when you could see this on MTV. This song still gets me after 12 years. Deeply moving.
Hauntingly beautiful voice.
I could listen to that voice for the rest of my life, and I'm doing just that. Live well all.😊
First heard this in 1994 and I was 16 in NYC now it’s 2021 in NYC and...wow.
October Project was awesome.
You mean is. They're still active: Marina Belica, Julie Flanders and Emil Adler.
I was one of the ghosts in this video-was shot in Carnation, Washington
Absolutely beautiful, yet haunting. I've always thought she has the most amazing voice. I'll never get tired of listening to them. Return to Me is another incredibly beautiful song. Fun side note: I saw Mary perform in Seattle a few years ago. She talked a bit about this video. Apparently it was filmed down the road from where I lived in Washington at the time. She also mentioned how dark it is in subject matter.
Great musicians, great music, they all touched our soul with this album. Everytime my Brothers and I listen to them, we are transported to those glory days in the 90's Thanks for your music.
I loved this song as a kid. I was in Ohio for a while and it played on the radio there. It makes me teary eyed to this day.
Me too. I can't help but think that Evanescence, as great as they are, built on Mary Fahl.
I NEED to know more about this band, her voice is incredible!
This song puts me in the mood for Halloween
Year after year I come back to this video. I first saw them on Conan O'brien in 94 and I was just floored. The song had such depth and Mary's voice...cmon

Musick will tell you when you're ready for it. And, when you need it.
I got the CD when it first came out. Freaking amazing! 2 hours to 2021, and it’s just as beautiful today, as it was when I first listened to it.
I'm listening to October Project Bury My Lovely early May 2021
IT’S MAY 2024! 😂 ON THE NIGHT OF THE FULL MOON 🌝 WOW! Definitely not a coincidence!
Man these guys take me back to them sweet 90's. I swear they were the best years.
They were.
Mine too.... 😭
Actually; they sucked big time....
You'r absolutly right!!
For over 20 years I've loved and been 'haunted by this song as I didn't know the title or the artist. It's so good to finally find it and I've already listened to it about 100 times.
this song is hauntingly beautiful just like the lead vocalist...I've watched it over & over. I haven't heard this in years, so haunting...I love it!
I wrote a novella with this title about the teenage survivor of child sex abuse. She's a medium who discovers the ghost of a minister that haunts her bedroom in a converted church once abused a girl who was a parishioner.
Mary Fahl and October Project ...dream of reality of music !!! 😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I first heard this song on satelite tv on MORE MUSIC ,had to have the CD. Listened over and over to it, therapy I guess while living with a violent alcoholic. Life is better now....I still love the song!!!
Beautiful !!!! 1994 💓💓💓💓
This is the only true version of The October Project.
These 2 albums bring such happiness and heartbreak. The joy of the music and the despair of knowing it can never be again.

October Project was a hidden gem that corporate media left out
The whole album is a treasure. If only they did more.....
Great song and album . Saw October Project and Sarah McLachlan in Park City and long time ago . One of my favorite concerts !
haunting and beautiful.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard in my entire life. Amazing.
That is just my interpretation of it. When the little girl comes out dresses as a ghost and the sheet is soiled and dirty all the other kids run away it further lends itself to that interpretation of being sexually abused and not being able to ever feel clean and feeling shame of thinking everyone else knows. But the beauty of music is that you can take what you want from it. So it can be about any type of abuse and wanting to bury the pain of it away.
The most tear's i have ever shed for a band , I LOVE YOU guy's for ever .................
What a gorgeous, soaring song. I kick myself for having missed a Mary Fahl show in Pittsburgh a few years ago; I saw the advertisement for the show literally two days after it had happened. RRR!
I so miss them...
Yes a beautiful song and that beautiful voice .
One of the most beautiful songs i have ever heard...the voice of an angel...
la voz de mary fahl se siente como si quisiera romper los límites de la realidad !
My radio alarm clock woke me playing "Paths of Desire." I didn't go to work that day - I went to the record store.
SUCH A POWERFUL, AND AMAZING SONG! I LOVE YOU GUYS! A FOREVER FAN.
I first heard this over 15 years ago lol. Still holds up. So beautiful, enchanting and haunting
I love this song for years now..A timeless classic...
Stunning song, beautifully done. Bravo.
i love october project!!!!
Just came across this band on Spotify. Really enjoying it. 😍
I bought this album because of this video I saw on VH1 when it was good, when it was an actual video station. The entire album turned out to be fantastic.
hauntingly beautiful
Wow

Great song!!!!!!👋👋👋👋👋
São lindas as musicas do october project
Beautiful yet haunting!!

Timeless
Someone close to me is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse...the lyrics and the brilliant imagery of the directors vision in the video speak volumes. Hard to watch and listen. Very powerful.
SAD THEY AREN'T TOGETHER ANYMORE!
October Project is so underrated, it’s sad. This music is so beautiful 😍
I am so grateful for this song and video so well done why isn't there more artists this deep and meaningful..im stunned!!!!!! It reminds me of my son who died at 8.5years old brings tears to my eyes.. astonishing!!!!!!!!
El primer disco de October Project es uno de los más hipnóticamente bellos de los noventa.
I was 18 when I first heard this and saw the video in 1993. It all began with a vhs tape of Rock Video Monthly I got in the mail. Fell in love with singer right there, lol.
Phenomenal musicianship and vocals!
I also got those tapes. This was one of my favorite videos.
Muy bella canción . Inolvidable
I LOVE this band!!!
me too
One of the videos that captured perfectly the music. I will never forget it.
How can Mary sing so beautifully. It's like a Voice from Heaven, not Earth...
I absolutely love this song!!
Masterpiece, finnest music, great and classy voice. State of the art
(Lyrics)
Cover the mirror
Hide in your dreams
Forget what they told you
Forget what it means
A picture, worth a thousand lies
The memory and the mirror
Nothing but what came before
Nothing but a closing door
(Chorus).......
A picture worth a thousand lies
A thousand words, A thousand eyes
Bury my lovely, Hide in your room
Bury my lovely, Forget me soon
Forget me, Forget me now
Forget me not
......................
Cover the madness
Cover the fear
No one will ever
Know you were here
A figure in the hallway light
Returning like a ghost
Something that was left behind
Something in a child's mind
(Chorus Repeats)
A shadow from another time
Is waiting in the night
Something happened long ago
Something that will not let go
(Chorus Repeats)
just that part "no one will never know you are here..."
Beginning a video with a little baby inside a grave is quite powerful. Connects you inmediately with the mood and with the song. Makes you uncomfortable and sad, it captures you and makes you pay attention.

Mary Fahl, uma Deusa.
Beautiful song. Powerfully moving video.
is it weird i blast this roughly 8 times on my 45min drive home daily?
Wow...Powerful. I think the video depicts an older women coming to terms with being sexually abused. All the imagery of the loss of innocence...the child in the ghost costume with the filthy sheets scaring the other kids....the baby in the grave.....the old women and the very end holding the child that was lost.

Complex in the greatest way!
I saw this video first when I was 14, and it creeped me out but somehow I loved it also. Very underrated of course.
Oh, How I Love This Song!!!
Man, I remember this from high school.
I just love this song. Its beautiful
OMG I LOVE this great song!!! Fantastic!!
It's the amazingly haunting love chills!
BRING BACK THE GNARLY PERCUSSION DRUMS! IT’S THE FULL MOON 🌝 NIGHT OF MAY 2024! Omg, making this 52 year old dude cry. Again.
Years ago when I worked at the original House of Blues, I was working the box office the night she was performing. Everyone curious about that night's show I tried my best to get to see the show. Her voice is incredible!
I saw her and October Project at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano. I love Mary's voice. I've never heard anything like it before, or since.
Time's the kiiller - too many memories
