- I have found out that there is two versions of Perfect Day, there is no difference in the lyric or anything. But it's a difference in sound and instruments. And this one sounds so much better!
What I find sad is that this version is almost impossible to find!
Video Audio: 128 KBPS - 44KHZ - STEREO - Hudba
I’m a 22 year old dude who cries every time I hear this. Reminds me of being 5 years old watching the TV series at my grandparents house
It is memory
Man the nolstalgia. I was super young when I watched the show. I don't really have too many memories of my early childhood at all. Less than most people seem to have however I have never forgotten this song. So beautiful.
I’m with y’all
Was it the Beatrix Potter stories? Such a beautiful song!
@@suziqw139 The world of Peter Rabbit and friends by Beatrix potter yes x
Seriously, thumbs up for anyone and everyone who looked for this song because of childhood memories of Beatrix Potter stories. :)
I actually just started to try to teach myself how to play this on Piano too,(by ear!!!) so I'm really excited.
Props to you for doing that :) I've been thinking of doing the same - gotta dig out the old keyboard - you know I think I've had that keyboard for about as long as I've known the Beatrix Potter series haha - still works too :P
Jango Yifftail Oh my gosh me too! I found the sheet music on scribd or whatever that is, btw!
Katie Beaumonte Thanks for the tip. ;)
Abbey Hewitt Glad to see that I'm inspiring other people...
+Jango Yifftail I taught myself this on piano! It's so calming, it's so therapeutic to play :)
It's near impossible to believe a song this beautiful was used as the theme to a mostly overlooked and hugely under appreciated TV show from the 90s. Kids these days don't have anything that comes even remotely close to this.
I grew up on that show. Had the US dub on VHS while my grandma had the original UK voice version on VHS. It's impossible for me to separate it from the original books just because of how perfect of an adaptation it is.
I remember the time but which show was it? Was it about Peter Rabbit / Beatrix Potter?
@@creative45630 Yes. It was an excellent adaptation of a bunch of Beatrix Potter's stories. This song was the outro to every episode except for The Tailor of Gloucester.
Beatrix potter is very popular all over the world! I don’t think is under appreciated or overlooked at all. It’s just pretty old and mostly used around the Christmas period unless I’m wrong about that
@@curtthegamer934 ahh lovely. I miss that Sunday teatime BBC family TV slot… I remember things like Little Lord Fauntleroy, Five Children and It, The Borrowers etc too.
this is the most beautifully bittersweet song ever written, it invokes the beauty of nature, the innocence of childhood and the fleetingness of life
Beautiful description
@@h3artands0uLL thank you!
Wow that was beautifully written 🥰🥰
@@annabelenko1611 thank you!
My exact feelings about this song
My mother used to love Beatrix Potter and sadly passed away when I was 15, the song reminds me of her every time I listen and brings back the good memories as a child, sat watching the tales in those crisp autumn/winter days - I proposed to my Girlfriend (of 10 years) a 5 minute walk from Beatrix's Hilltop House in the Lake District 1 week ago, looking out over Esthewate water. The song now has a whole new meaning, grown man in my 30s and it makes me tear up every time!
You know, my grandmother loved Peter Rabbit leading up to her death earlier this year, so listening to this just reminds me of all the times I shared with her...
I’m 58 now. We used to rent the VHS tapes of this series when my daughter was young. We lived in the country and didn’t have broadcast tv or cable at home. She loved the Beatrix Potter stories and I would often watch them with her, and read the books to her as well. She grew up to be an amazing, caring and smart person. I feel that not being over exposed to television was partly why she is so stable in a crazy world. Thanks for posting this. It brings back good memories.
Tenho 53 anos e antes da minha filha nascer eu assistia a série animada de Beatrix Potter...essa música me fazia viajar pra outro lugar,tocava meu coração
Depois que minha filha nasceu,assistimos juntas muitas vezes...boas memórias e bons sentimentos ela nos da❤️
Well done lovely 😊
❤
Now 68 and I have it on DVD. If there's an afterlife, and some places in the world can be like the opening scenes in the series, I'll go there and stay a while...
A beautiful song that makes me cry every time l hear it. This was my granddaughter's Finola song. She passed away 3/31/20 of breast cancer. She was only 35. I miss her so much. 💔😭
I seriously want this to be played at my funeral. I've spent my time on this earth dwelling on my past memories, always swimming in nostalgia. What better way so say goodbuy than playing this incredible song from one my most precious memories from my childhood.
Wow me too. Thought I was the only one 🤍
Me too
Hope your still listening too this song❤ xx
This song was my sanctuary when I was a kid and going through chemo. I can remeber how it always made me feel at peace and all my troubles just went away.
I want to live in a cottage with bunnies in a different time other than now
I'm with you!
Michael Novotny Would be perfect!
Michael Novotny Tears! That is wonderful man.
Michael Novotny make room for me too Michael
robyn van horn and we'll grow our own vegetables and fruit and food, and read books in the sun on rolling hills, go to the local markets, take part in village dances, and dance in the rain. I wish life was that simple :(
This is hauntingly beautiful. Like I’m taken to the English fields in the country side. Beautiful, simple times.
It really is the most beautiful, wholesome, innocent pieces of childrens television ever produced. The opening and closing title sequences themselves are a beautiful work of art in their own right... I was a child in primary school when the series was made , and from the first time I heard and saw it, I fell in love. I later drew the conclusion that this song was the embodiment of musical perfection... I'm a grown man now and the beauty of both the show and this song still brings a tear. :)
I'm 34 year-old girl and this song has been stuck in my head for years.. but I wasn't sure if it actually existed so I just went looking for the Peter Rabbit Song today and this came up and I was like aww yeah! it's real !and it sounds exactly as I remember .. just sweet sad song that sticks with you forever. not quite as sad as the one at the end of Secret Garden though ( winter light - look it up! )
I’m 34 as well. And remember this song from my childhood too.
40... and the same. It's odd how Winterlight and A Perfect Day are kinda entwined for me as well in terms of haunting children's film songs.
@@chiekokurokumo o cool.. interesting isnt it. . very strange.
I'm 34 as well! Same for me with those 2 songs, secret garden was the first film I saw at the cinema 😊 the heart asks for pleasure first is a 3rf tune that my brain attaches to these 2
Oh wow I actually just turned 34 and I grew up on this song and the Peter rabbit series too! That’s pretty insane
Lyrics:
The rain has moved on
And left a new day
Nothing seems to move, everything is still
It's just a perfect day
The shadows and light
That move with the wind
Hidden violets grow splashed with summer spray
Just another perfect day
On the wild and misty hillside
Fear is nature's warning
Hunger here is never far away
And all of this world
Is for children who play
Days that never end, always should remain
Another perfect day

Listen, I'm sorry for your loss and all, but you probably shouldn't be spamming the link.
@
景羽穠 thank you for the lyrics. You earned a subscriber.
For such uplifting lyrics, this song still sounds so sad. Makes me contemplative about life and loss…
I requested this song as the one for my dance with my daughter on her wedding day. My dream came true in 2016. I had the dream since I heard it when we played the Peter Rabbit videos when she was a child.
I have a good cry of joy whenever I hear it.
That is beautiful!
Watching this with my daughter when she was 7 years old. I’m in tears right now transported back to those times. Beautiful just beautiful.
I can relate. My daughter had all these on VHS in the late 90s. She used to sit in front of the TV and be mesmerized when I put these on for her. She loved Pigling Bland the best. She just graduated from college. Where does time go? It goes so fast.
I've been trying to find this song, and this show, for about fourteen years now... And finally I stumble upon it completely by accident! I literally cried when I heard it again after all these years. Thank you so much for letting me revisit my childhood!
Oh man this song, The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends and everything else made me really sad. Really made me cry because of how nostalgic this song + television series was when I was little.
Too bad we can't have these kind of television series for the this centuries children :(
the show was so good back then.
:)
that was a great show, I remember too...
I was an adult when this show came out. I watched for the nostalgia of the books I was so fond of, as a child. I ended up watching the entire series because of the quality of the show and especially because of this song. So beautiful and haunting. Miriam Stockley has one of those amazing voices.
The great thing is that the episodes of The World Of Peter Rabbit and Friends are on CZcams. I love this show. I never saw it as a child or even read the series but it is too cute and has outstanding animation, art, and quality. Even I think newer shows and stuff is just about all trash compared to shows like these. I'm quite happy to find shows like these still on CZcams. =D
we can. I bought a copy of the whole series last week.
Im going to purchase the dvd collection and introduce this series to my students. I love the series so much!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you 💖
I think this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard.
As she sits down at her desk two write and pours a cup of tea, she begins talking to Peter, her rabbit who is waitng on her desk helpfully nudging and nuzzling papers and pens. This converasation introduces the character and the associated animated episode begins. Throughout this live-acting intro, there is a kind of Perfect Day reprise playing. After the episode finishes, it goes back to Beatrix leaving her house to post letters to children, throughout which the actual song is played. :)
Love this
💙
I was captivated by this incredible song the very first time I heard it on our PBS station when we discovered the Beatrix Potter series. Our kids were 4 and 5 at the time. We were older parents in our early forties. I couldn’t believe how much the song affected me. It still does! Guys aren’t supposed to tear up, but I did and still do every time I hear it! I listen to it periodically whenever I want to take a break from this world that is losing the innocence that the series and this song evokes. Miriam Stockley has the voice of and angel and the song itself, the instrumentation, and the arrangement is as close to perfect as possible! I looked at our kids and those kids dressed in period clothing in the wonderful live action shots and I wanted the same kind of world for them. I’m still wishing!!!
Perfect Day is the perfect song!
None better! ❤
my sister just made me come to her room to listen to this and I was literally crying because of all the Peter rabbit child hood memories it held. Beatrix Potter was my favourite author as a child. I love this so much...
Did you watch this series as a child? I used to with my grandmother when I was very young and am trying to find them again so I can remember her.
Monkey you can find it on youtube and if you use clipconverter.cc you can download it. the quality of it isnt too amazing, but its still something
Noa Jablonski okay thank you c=
Hiraeth: a homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was; the nostalgia, the yearning, the grief for the lost places of your past.
That is what I feel when I hear this song.
well said, my sentiments exactly
I just can't settle where I am, I belong somewhere else. Nothing gives me meaning like things that shouldn't give meaning to me
It's too bad you're a degenerate fascist.
It's a comforting song, warms the soul
Alex Delarge you don’t even begin to understand the meaning of that word
In 2000 when my 4yr old Little Precious Girl watched this we LURVED the song so much. Lived in Balwyn, Melbourne Australia at the time but it could only be ordered through a book/cd store on Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn, Melbourne Australia. Took over 2 weeks to get it sent over from the U. K. One of the best CD's I've heard. Miriam's voice is mesmerising.
This song is childhood!!
I am 28 now.
I remember watching the Beatrix Potter series with my beloved Nana (RIP) as a kid in the early 90s. Sometimes we would pretend to be the characters and she would dress me up as the hedgehog Mrs. Tiggywinkle. These were some of my fondest earliest memories. The series was outstanding.
This song gives me a feeling of what Heaven must be like; No pain, no want, no pride, no anger, no fear, no desire, no hate, no ego, no judgement, no greed, no envy, no self-doubts, no differences, and no regrets.
All questions answered. All worries vanished. All forgotten moments remembered. All hopes realized. Only True Peace and one with the light all of creation.
Yet the song mentions 'fear is nature's warning, hunger here is never far away' it describes the struggle to survive in the natural world.
Omg... This comment is so unappreciated... It brings me so many memories of my childhood. I was born back in 2005 (am 14 now), and my parents owned a collectible double pack of Beatrix Potter's Peter rabbit animated episodes. (It had both volumes :)) I use to watch them all the time growing up. Only recently did we find them again, and this song is one of my all-time favorites. It honestly makes me sad to know that there will never be this quality of music in the later years. I seriously doubt that any of my generation today knows what this song is or where to find it. Thank's for finding this version of the song... Seriously though. I listened to the one on Spotify and it just didn't feel the same. So thank you, you wonderful soul. And everyone else who listens to this song in the stressful and worrisome year of 2020, I bless you and I hope you have good luck. This song only brings happiness and calm and is the literal embodiment of what heaven must be. So once again, thank you InSaneTK, for bringing my favorite memories and childhood back to me...

@@godsmackvv11 I’m in my 30s and it warms my heart that someone half my age knows about this series. So who knows, maybe in 15 years you’ll take a look and see that people half your age too will still be watching this and carry it in their hearts and memories :)
Love this ❤️
Lovely comment
At 58 years old, this still makes me tingle.
Also when you are 62...
This song is such fire it raised the quality of the entire show
This song brings back nostalgia, I watched the original Peter Rabbit animated series as a kid. I especially liked the lines in the intro where the actor for Beatrix goes "come along Kip" and "GET OUT MY WAY JEMIMA."
But the outro, oh my, that's where it hits me hard.
You might be enjoying this but I would like to get to my door! 😂
@@isthatng6051 If you'd please
@arrowtt3364 Ahhh Peter.
This is kind of a hauntingly beautiful song. It gives you shivers and makes you want to cry, yet at the same time think of times when life was simplier and you could find joy in running through a forest! I simply love this piece of music. It's the one thing I remeber most from Peter Rabbit!
Who remembers watching this as a kid, it brings back so may memories. Who else wants to live in a cottage in the country after listening to this
A reminder that no matter how bad things seem, the "fear is nature's warning" that we are looking at things wrong and that there is plenty of beauty in it all. It's a perfect day.
This song is so haunting and beautiful. My brother reminded me that we watched the series about Beatrix Potter and Peter Rabbit when we were kids at our grandparents(I’m seeing a lot of other people say they watched this show with their grandparents too!❤️)
This is probably why we love rabbits!🤣We both have had several over the years as pets, probably thanks to these stories. Anyways, he pulled up an episode today and then it got me googling this song. It’s so nostalgic. I remember my brothers and I would sit wrapped up in blankets, eating snacks and playing games while watching it. When I was listening to this and it got to the part about “the world is for children who play” it made me start crying. My youngest brother died going on 3 years ago at 22 and I miss him every day.
I wish I could go back to when we were kids and we just played and didn’t have a care in the world. Wish I could talk to him and give him one last hug.
Listening to the song and reading this made me cry. I'm so sorry for your loss. My mother lost her little brother when he was 25, around the time this series started. I wasn't born until two years later. She said to me last year (when our beloved cat had to be put to sleep at the age of 19) "it gets easier over time, but it never goes away"
💙😢 So sorry for your loss, but someday when you leave this world, you will see him again. And I’m sure he knows how you feel. ❤️
After all the many long days and nights of noise and chaos your eyes will close for the final time and this song will take you back to your childhood and remind you where your adventures began. For all of this world is for children who play.
Absolute beautiful song. Haven't heard this in around 20 years. Reminds me of when I was a child watching Peter rabbit :)
Same! I now have a young son and we just watched Peter Rabbit together this week - had to find this song.
I feel like I'm the only person on the planet, yet I'm not lonely. The sun shines on my face, birds singing freely in the trees. I walk over green fields; I'm not hungry, thirsty, or tired. There are animals of all shapes and sizes grazing peacefully. I'm not frightened. A soft breeze blows...
a.k.a : HEAVWN X3
Then you are with God all the way he walks with you.
Very Nostalgic everytime I hear this.. childhood memories jus come flooding back.😪
This takes me back, I loved watching Beatrix Potter when I was a kid
I get goosebumps every time
same
Damn, I'm almost the same! I think one time 3 years ago i didn't get them
Omg me too lol lol 😆
Same in end of 2020
same
When I heard this song a couple years ago, my jaw fell open and tears ran down my face. I hadn't heard it since I was so young, and just the first few notes were enough to completely break me. It's so beautiful and innocent...
"...and all of this world is for children who play, days that never end always should remain...." having watched six of my own play and grow this brings a tear to my eye...I'm so glad we were able to give them opportunites to play...God help those children whose innocence is taken away too young...
My mother put the tails of Peter Rabit on for me when i was a child probably of 5 years. Its been a verry long time since ive even remotely thought of the wonderfull series(im 20 now). Lol i dont know why but today when i was playing skyrim the sound of the atmosphere music i guess had certaint cords that sparked my memory of this song. I had to pause just so i could google it, in which i found it, and then watched. My mind was flooded with nostalgia. Such a wonderful feeling! To remember a simpler time with no cares in the world. When i have kids one day im gunna watch this with them.
I loved the Peter Rabbit VHS movies. I especially loved the ending having this song playing. This really take a me back.
perfectly described what i just experienced just then, probably been at least 10 years since i heard this too and its all rushing back
I was reminded of this when playing Skyrim also! So strange; brings back a whole lot of memories and emotion
I relate to this way too much 😂
Im Dutch but have had a very similar life. We're just as old as well.
Growing up with this living in the English Countryside really helped me appreciate its beauty.
I didn't grow up in the countryside but my Grandparents used to live in the countryside years before they moved closer to town and I love the countryside and what's happening to right now in places is heartbreaking
Such a haunting song. Sends shivers down my spine every time. Hearing this song after so many years makes me yearn to see the english countryside just once.
It's been 12 years since your comment. I hope you got to see the English countryside, my homeland. If not, I hope you do soon!
This song is reminiscent of simpler times being young and of how different the world used to be... #nostalgia
Please never take this video down. I feel like buying a Peter Rabbit plushie and cuddling on my bed listening to this. (- w -)
Phan Villegas my too!
+Nina Mandelli Me three!
+1futurweb omg, thanks 4 the links :)
me four!
I recently found one at a thrift store and gave it to my son for Christmas. He loves it (:
This beautiful piece of magic!!!Was written by .Colin Towns an English composer born in 1948....it was composed in 1994..🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Reminds me of that innocence children have, and then they lose it when they get older. Adult-world is more complicated. But I still love this song, regardless of the sad feeling that comes with it.
I get these feelings when I'm nostalgic, and listen to songs like this. The idyllic nature of youth and innocence as well as a tragic sense of their loss
I just sent this to my 22 year old daughter. I know she's gonna get choked up. She still loves this series.
I am speechless - how beautiful and enchanting is this song?
I want to be Miriam Stockley when I grow up!
i teared up when i heard this song again because of nostalgia. i used to have a old cachette that had one of the tales. it was The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse and i was fascinated from the song and it ould always left me somewhat mystified. it reminds me to be proud of my heritage. i even rewatced both volumes of the tales. you should too because they are worth it
Edit: Thank you so much for the likes!!! I think this is the highest amount of likes I got in one comment ever!
Sometimes I listen to this, reminiscing of times where everything was perfect. It makes my cry but maybe in a way that helps me want to change my ways.
This song is ULTIMATE Beauty and Solitude... I'm an 80s baby and remember watching Peter Rabbit and friends.. This is amazing. Thank you!
I've been searching EVERYWHERE for this song. I'm so happy!
I love this song, it's bringing me back to this beautiful moments I have shared watching The world of Peter Rabbit with my daughter who is now 21 years old and we still love fairies tales. Beatrix Potter and her magic world settled at the Lake District are just wonderful to visit time to time, to remind us, that we all have this wonders deep in our hearts and we must keep them alive, in this not very easy world.
Can’t beat this...it’s absolutely gorgeous 😳❤️
My grandparents lived up north quite near to Beatrix Potters house, and we would travel all the way up from Kent to see them every summer. Long summer days that seemed to go on forever. I used to love watching all the Beatrix Potter films as a little girl, and hearing this music brings it all back. I miss those days, and I miss my grandparents and also my dad so much!
I found this song by watchong a peeter rabbit dvd from when i was a kid. So now this song reminds me of england and its beautiful countryside. I wish i could live there. Im from new zealand
Echoes of times long gone.
Every time I have a headache, this seems to be the only song I can listen too without it hurting
I remember as a child sitting on the porch with my grandmother on a cool summer's morning watching the blues skies and clouds go by. The birds were singing their songs and the gentle voice of my grandmother talking to me. It was a perfect day.
This was my childgood . I miss the old times ...i want them back
would like this at my eulogy for my funeral.
Can't believe I actually found this. I remembered this song from a Beatrix Potter video from when I was a kid, but I only had one partially remembered line to go on and I last heard it more than half my life ago. Found the song's name based on remembering "...is nature's warning, hunger here".
One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. I watched the Beatrix Potter TV series with my daughters when they were little. Lovely, heartfelt memories.
21 years old and I still love this song. I still have the tape! T^T
This song is so nostalgic it still brings tears to my eyes years later
I hadn't heard this song in over a decade, then a friend of mine forwarded it to me, I didn't even remember the name of the song. Nor could I connect it to anything(the name, that is). A totally random-kind of occurrence.
The second I heard the music, I immediately had a flashback to the days when I was in kindergarten, things were simple and none of my friends had yet died before their time. Not ashamed to admit a few tears rolled down my cheek. Absolutely beautiful music.
If its possible for a song to gently touch your soul, then this is one of them..
This song is just so beautiful. Whenever I think back on my childhood and when everything was going right this song comes to mind. When I listen to this it is so pure and soothing that I can forget all of my worries for a little while. This never fails to bring a tear to my eye and a shaky smile to my face. I don't know what else to say. I hope this helps other people remember those perfect days and hope for future ones.
I'm back. Took me a while to find this song again and my brother's playlist for this perfect song. Seems like this song is extremely relevant again.
czcams.com/play/PLjrxjY6ArT1TouHdAf_Ft41OBlA-p3fjM.html this is his playlist. No I'm not a Sepertest or a Droid. I'm a Clone Trooper. May The Force be with you.
This song takes me away. Makes me think of my childhood.
I remember how much I loved my Peter Rabbit VHS and I'd especially love the ending where I got to listen to this song.
Takes me back and soothes my mind of anything.
Pure Nostalgia!
So much nostalgia from the peter rabbit tales! :) That's my childhood.
This song reminds me of being a kid!
Remember when we were little,and we couldn’t wait to grow up.We all thought life was gonna be amazing growing up,but meanwhile growing up u regret not enjoying ur time as a little kid 😪💔
Was just talking about this the other day. No matter how many times adults told us, we could never mentally grasp simply enjoying childhood. We were so desperately trying to hurry the clock. Now, no matter how much we try to stress it to the children of today......they'll never be able to fully understand and appreciate it until it's too late. It's a sad cycle.
Cooper Family I agree so much! Growing up I thought life was gonna be amazing but it’s turned out to be the opposite,and this song just reminds me of so much memories
Listening to the song makes me think of a small part of my childhood that had been missed.Anyway, I do not live in the country where this program was aired. I found it by a mistake while browsing some classic cartoons. I am so happy that I discovered this angelic song together with the Peter the rabit.
Brings back memories of my family vacations to the mountains of North Carolina, it felt like a second home because of how often we visited, I miss the vacations so much ever since I moved...
Thanks. One of my favorite songs. Still relevant and always was in my life.
This takes me back to my childhood watching Peter Rabbit
I am literally in tears as im writting this. It's been almost 14 years since i've heard this song. Brings me beautiful memories of Peter Rabbit, me as a child, and other Beatrix tales. @InSaneTk, you've made my whole week....Beautiful memories came rushing by as the song played... Such wonderful times... Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Just listening takes me to days spent watching Peter Rabbit with my granddaughter; now in college. Lovely really....made my day perfect.
Wonderful song to listen to when your a wee sad with lyrics that are so meaningful
reminds me of my childhood.
This turned up on a random Spotify list and I fell in love with it right away. Such a beautiful song.
I feel like this song is about how perfect the world is when you're in your youth. Hardly any troubles, hardly any stress. You're free from everything. And you're in a bubble, shut away from the real world. That is until when you get older, life becomes more complicated and you begin to see it wasn't so perfect after all.
It's like praying that your young and happy days could last forever. And asking for the happy days to never end, sadly, when you become an adult, things change and you can never go back to how things were. No matter how much you wish, the perfect days don't last forever, they don't always stay.
Beautiful just beautiful perfect in every way
She is such a great stylish singer
Just love her
When I was 4, my Mother and Grandmother took me down to Yorkshire. We stayed in a little, secluded cottage in the middle of a moor that overlooked a wide, barren valley with a small river running through the middle of it. We would explore the nearby hills and glens during the day as they would read the Beatrix Potter stories to me at night. I don't know what sparked my sudden midnight interest in this song - the alcohol, the desperate craving for nostalgia. Whatever the reason, it made me think of that time when I was 4; when I would feed the neighbouring horses wild apples plucked from the forest; when I would listen to the soft beat of the sound of rain splash gently against the windowsill, watching clouds traverse the misty moors; when I would cuddle into an armchair by the fire and listen to the my Mother and Grandmother tell me the story of Pigland Bland, Peter Rabbit or Jemimah Puddleduck. I won't ever get those memories back. But I can't be grateful enough to have had such a wonderful, caring family who imbued me with such a love for literature and the natural world.
I hummed this song for years. Finally figureing out it was the theme song to Betrix Potters Peter Rabbit. I found this video clip. With alot of relief to finally be able to sing the song in it's entirety, was such a joy. Light and love 💕
I also discovered this via Beatrix Potter which led me to discover Miriam Stockley and then buy her CD which I now go to sleep to nearly every night. I'm lucky I see the English countryside all the time, but it takes me back to a time before cars, computers, political correctness and health and safetly gone mad! It's a beautiful song in my opionion - very calming; her whole solo album is great too - try it and see
Anyone still here? 😭💜
Right here buddy, really missing the old times😣
It's really quite dark and foreboding this song.. there's a sense of menace behind it.. the chord progression but there's a darkness in the lyrics too. It used to creep me out as a kid, I remember.. it was hypnotising, but spooky. Shit got seriously real everytime this came on after playschool or whatever.
I get the calm before the storm feeling from this song
Yes! I always felt a sadness after hearing this song, like it'd always remind me of a rainy dreary day. Even though the lyrics are positive, the music itself seems to feel the opposite. Would like to know the behind the scenes of this song. It has a lovely medieval vibe to it. Love this song regardless, though!
you are right
dozzaskebab it’s sort of sad and mysterious also. It talks about childhood and how you grow up you leave it behind. How the world is for children who play etc. Beatrix Potter actually had a Lonely and sad life. She had a lot of sadness in her life
@@aaronying4989 She's the kind of woman people only bother to pity because she became famous and touched their lives with her stories. Lonely old maids are a common story, but people don't care. Plenty of perfectly wonderful women rejected because they're "odd" or not pretty enough.
This just awoke memories I had forgotten about
This song is truly enchanting..
What a amazing song. I've been looking for this music. I feel like if I were there in that picture, just resting e listening the sound of nature.
