'The Willow Maid' - original song Ā© 2009 Erutan/Kate Covington
From my debut album, "Raindancer"

Song inspired by the tree sprites of Celtic Mythology ~

Hello guys! I've decided its time to release the songs from my original album, 'Raindancer', onto youtube for all my subs that never got to hear them. This means you guys can upload it too with your own videos if you like! Trying to generate buzz for album #2!

The video took a couple days - I did all the line art and filled in with textures from cool cats on deviantart (will get lists and links up as soon as I can) to create a moving collage effect.

(Sorry for nothing new lately - I developed vocal cord nodes from a hectic singing schedule this Spring, and am under doctor's orders to rest my voice for a few months. The good news is that I was able to record some extremely awesome things that I should be able to release in the next few months)

The mythological creature described in this song is a Dryad. In most European folklore(Aside from ancient Greek), Dryads were believed to be the spirits of particularly old oak trees. Reclusive and mischievous these creatures lived bound to their trees, able to commune with the animals and plants of the forest. The appearance of the Dryad would reflect the health of her tree , with her hair, eyes and in some stories even skin color changing to match the seasons. It was believed that, should a dryad stray to far from her tree, cut of from the life essence of the Oak , she would literally wither away and die. Common folk tales around central and eastern europe would often attribute that, if a young child was lost in the woods, it was very likely that they had been charmed by a Dryad. The more you know.

Fun fact: in some cultures a cut down tree symbolises a loss of virginity (mostly nonconsensual).

I love how in the third verse the voice sounded more urgent and worried while the start sounded so relaxed

The scene where she collapses makes her hair look like blood, like they were wounded by the tree chopping down, great symbolism

"He could not take from the forest what was never meant to leave." Literally gave me the goosebumps.

I like how at 3:14 she sang "With her I'll raise my children" instead of our children. Implying he doesnt care about her

ā€œWith her, iā€™ll raise my children, with her, iā€™ll live my lifeā€”ā€œ sounded genuinely terrifying.

I think he liked the idea of her and the idea of being with her, more than he actually loved her

Žalosna vrba. In one story, a child was drowning in a river (Neretva) and begged the willow to lower her branches. She did so, but not fast enough, and the child drowned. Now the sad willow always has her branches pointing to the ground, in case a child ever needs to grab unto them

"Now your willow's fallen. Now you belong to me." is when the maiden cried.

Everyone is talking about the story or the animation, but no one has mentioned how ethereal and beautiful her voice is

There are two ways to dehumanize someone: To devalue them, and to idolize them. Both are equally disastrous.

I love how the song describes her as "young" when in reality she was probably thousands of years old-being a fae and all.

Him: Yes? Her: No. Him: But actually yes, right? Her: NO. Him: You surely meant yes. Her: NO! Him: I'll take that as a yes, then.
