Michael Martin Murphey - Wildfire/Spirit Video

Back



Originally,there seemed not to be a video for Wildfire.I noticed several videos were using clips from the animated movie Spirit on YouTube. Well I thought it might be fun to set it to this great song.So armed with a handful of clips,and some video magic,I edited this neat anime down to somewhat sync with Michaels musical classic. This video exists no where else in the world. Enjoy. Update: I now have a video posted of Michael performing this tune live on the Late Night with David Letterman Show from 5.22.07 ~Ric~ Lyrics: She comes down from Yellow Mountain On a dark, flat land she rides On a pony she named Wildfire With a whirlwind by her side On a cold Nebraska night Oh, they say she died one winter When there came a killing frost And the pony she named Wildfire Busted down its stall In a blizzard she was lost She ran calling Wildfire [x3] So by the dark of the moon I planted But there came an early snow 'Been a hoot-owl howling outside my window now Bout' six nights in a row She's coming for me, I know And on Wildfire we're both gonna go We'll be riding Wildfire [x3] On Wildfire we're gonna ride Gonna leave sodbustin' behind Get the hard times right on out of our minds Riding Wildfire.

This is as close to what I remember hearing on the radio back in the day. The top 40 stations routinely sped up their playback of music at that time. MMM STILL does a very faithful rendition of this wonderful song many yrs. later though. His live version with Paul and the band on Letterman's show was a perfect example. This guy truly wrote and continues to make music that passes the test of time. Magical! I thought Letterman had some whit but he continually questioned the meaning of sod-bustin.
