Johnny Flynn - Wandering Aengus

[@nevillelaybourne5610]

Just discovering this talented man. What l have heard I am very impressed.

[@beezzarro]

Im not sure how well known this is, but the song of wandering aengus is a breathtakingly beautiful poem by W.B Yeats

[@yuqichen4056]

Yeah and Johnny is a fan of Yeats, so I’m not surprised. And if you look at the lyrics, it was actually inspired by the poem

[@beezzarro]

@@yuqichen4056 I never realized how well known the poem is until I went looking for it.

[@philmartin5689]

Christy Moore sings an excellent version of The Song of Wandering Aengus

[@menwithven2862]

Spent the first 18 years living by the sea in the Devon countryside. Now I’m 19 and at uni in London. Completely relate to wanting the balance between a social city life and being back home with no one around.

[@joeblack8915]

Why anyone would long for a shithole city life in comparison to beautiful Devon is beyond me. I've lived in a city for 59 years and I can't wait to get out of it!

[@callumleakfilms]

3 years later, still feel the same?

[@davvyk4730]

i'm in love with this man and his mind

[@leonfinegan]

I'm in love with this man and his mind

[@imasinnerimasaint]

Bet you love Emma (2020) then.

[@SOUTHWEST778]

Scrotal recall

[@IdontWatchIsee]

How do you know his mind?

[@vinceguido5925]

His lyrics give a glimpse into his mind......he has a thoughtful and subtle mind if they are any indication

[@RLukeDavis]

Oh. My. God. You're voice is beautiful. Many, many thanks

[@lukewealthall]

me and the wife still listen to this, pembrokeshire is a beautful place

[@SongBillong]

This is one of those tracks that will always give me goosebumps, regardless of how many times I play it. Beyond gorgeous!

[@mimilovehealth8605]

Johnny Flynn in his rightful position of guardian Angel 😇 woke up to find this alchemy on my notifications, have had it on repeat, with no intention of stopping any time soon. x 🌸

[@erinpyne1080]

What are men to rocks and mountains!

[@elisejee1632]

Or carriages that work! 😂😅

[@Goatmama2000]

Oh Miss Mary Bennett...

[@WASAYRUDEBOYZ1]

Johnny don't stop your songs they mean a lot to people 😊

[@jessyoung4707]

Listening to this on repeat while I do my office job is deranging

[@ФатимаВладик]

Обожаю Джонни Флина 😍

[@cleocleo7653]

I've been listening to your music since I was 10 and I'm now 23. Love it!!

[@amywalker3684]

Just discovered this amazingly talented man recently. What a gifted actor, and musician! I love finding new "Talent Crushes"!

[@micahsnow346]

I love this because this girls' story is so relatable. She's longing for connection in her everyday life (thus the guy with the beard), but at the same time she only feels truly happy, herself, and unrestrained, when she's by herself, daydreaming in her own little world. Johnny keeps coming to sit with her there but she never acknowledges him - we don't get to know if she ever finds somebody who understands her enough to join her in her own little world...but we can keep hoping :)

[@oriel9347]

Who is the actress ?

[@AshishKumar-il2sm]

Same to my life but.... character different

[@russian_decembrist]

@@AshishKumar-il2sm I hope you'll find something great on this world, dear.

[@mikeparkercreative5136]

Beautiful Pembrokeshire 🥰

[@inessamaria2428]

Johnny´s voice is simply amazing.

[@nevillelaybourne5610]

It certainly is.

[@xq3083]

unpretentious. pure gold

[@francescogiancane]

A brilliant piece of music and poetry: thank you, Sir, and greetings from Italy.

[@alisoncotton9087]

Just beautiful, such a mood. We feel it. Loving the orchestral accompaniment.

[@johncarsone1579]

Great as always Johnny!!!!!!

[@harriet.z]

Aw this is so relatable and makes me really appreciate the talents everyone has put in this song & video.

[@catlover-fp5ig]

I was having a miserable day today, but this really cheered me up. Thank you so much for your music Johnny, never stop what you are doing. :)

[@nigelhawkins3289]

It will be a very lucky person , who actually meets Johnny Flynn, genius singer songwriter, actor and a Saint.....

[@simonidastankovic2627]

Yes...he is a Bard-Saint

[@morgan300c]

Oh Wait a minute did I just find my favorite new singer totally randomly. Yup

[@leonfinegan]

morgan300c oh wait a minute did I just find my favourite new singer totally randomly. Yup

[@D8606-p2]

He’s been around working hard at his crafts, but under the radar for a lot of us til this time.

[@therealfinnaspring8585]

This video is really good. Exactly how i feel. I love being married but i also want to go adventure by myself and don't know how to reconcile those things necessarily

[@davidpopplewell4751]

Fantastic.

[@ericpeterson6766]

Johnny Flynn also enthralled with a great acting performance in "Beast" (2018?) a neat little psychological drama with Jessie Buckley. Well worth your while.

[@jumpyair6705]

Love the music, Love the video!

[@thomasmallitte3156]

What a song

[@polarambassadors6777]

I accidentally started listening to it at x1.25 and now I can't stop listening it this way haha

[@videmusart]

This video 100% accurately describes how I feel cooped up in a big city right now.

[@mrronan2007]

Years since I heard this and love it again

[@StigMalone]

What a video !!!! So good

[@NiharikaGurram]

This song and scenes are so relatable. ♥️

[@KeyToMusic]

Could not love this video more.

[@izzatiperalta2963]

Always love your music ❤️

[@julianaestupinanmantilla9598]

Sounds so good. I love your music, Johnny. Hugs from Colombia.

[@macrophylla]

Amazing....thanks friends.... Music is Nature...Music is Human!

[@GiselleMedd]

Oh how I love you Johnny

[@leonfinegan]

Giselle Medd oh how I love you johnny

[@sempreireicomentar5513]

Wow! Wonderful song, wonderful voice 🎶🎶🎶👏👏👏👏👏

[@emerald764]

I can relate to this because I would always rather be in Pembrokeshire too.

[@paulaesclapez2501]

I purchase the new music right now! What a genius.

[@patlerette5516]

Super talented!

[@katalinbiro8760]

The story of this video exactly sums up my life...lovely song and video Johnny🌄🌳🌲🌊

[@arejay00]

Great song. I'm getting a 'Lake Isle of Innisfree' vibe from the video too.

[@elianapoliti9436]

He is so beautiful!!!

[@psychosissafari]

church rock at broad haven south at the end, if someone feels like retracing the steps!

[@heyschulman]

inside no 9 episode with Johnny and now I discover this, kuwl!

[@ryancusack1]

Absolutely brilliant. That’s it.

[@reddwing4368]

Let me lift my heart Out of this darkness And begin to live again Mourning mourning Too much mourning Wasting my little life away But Sadness is a virtue in this day and age but Still Respite flows in A warm Cedar smelling rain Wondering Wondering to much wondering Wasting my little life away They say The quickness may not catch you if ya don't play their way Nope never again No more games It's the morning of new days Forever forgotten ways Running from the darkness I m running away Running running too much running I m wasting my little life away

[@xavigomez1474]

good to see that a huge part of his songs and videos reminds the purest things of life (like nature, kids...).

[@fbar6387]

and the difference to her emotive face depending on her environment

[@monahiagabriela5547]

Walking in my mourning in the morning Let me tell you of the ashes in the great Sun is raised for dawning, let the dawn in Let me lift my heart and free my song from pain To the song, to the song of Wandering Aengus People talk of rain, now for the pain Now in the swing of all the people at the gate Call of men-folks down in the woods, Bow down to Cyprus In the hazel wood and wave For the song, for the song of Wandering Aengus To step amidst the ferns who gently learn To whisper solitude to sunlight through the breaks I have seen your name writ through the clothes Knit pulses swelling in the fire I made last night With the song, with the song of Wandering Aengus With the song, with the song of Wandering Aengus Walking in my mourning in the morning Let me tell you of the ashes of the great Sun is raised for dawning Let the dawn in, let me lift my heart and free my song from pain To the song, to the song of Wandering Aengus To the song, to the song of Wandering Aengus

[@paulaandreagarcia8037]

your voice 😍

[@karenmorgan5656]

Love this song and the moment she throws her ph away that’s what we all need to do just be in nature and without the machine socially engineering us 💙

[@Shades_of_White]

Looking forward to seeing the show on Saturday :) Loving the new tracks

[@inarcissues]

Perfect song 💚🤘🏻

[@martar2778]

Johnny love Your Music! 💖

[@TigerPrawn_]

I wish I could see him live this month, but I'm away for 4 days when the shows are near me and the rest are too far away :( Very intriguing video, have to watch it again to get the message!

[@alisonlane3682]

Sea Fever BY JOHN MASEFIELD I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by; And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking, And a grey mist on the sea’s face, and a grey dawn breaking. I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying, And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying. I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life, To the gull’s way and the whale’s way where the wind’s like a whetted knife; And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick’s over.

[@vivienclogger]

It's somewhat unfortunate that I read Spike Milligan's version before I read the original... 'I must go down to the sea again, to the lonely sea and the sky, I left my socks and pants there, I wonder if they're dry?' The original, is better, but I still rather like Spike's version....😉

[@RebeccaBane]

Every time I watch 1:16 I wonder if she knew that swan was there and how close she was to hitting it with her phone!!

[@amitrabin1667]

I believe she potentially killed it by throwing her cellphone, it might think it’s something edible...

[@williamhofmans3763]

Please. Therez a crew who knew. Fished it out. Ya?

[@geekgirl3847]

Love you man Tá de sacanagem que eu nunca vi essa música Fantástica

[@rwmhunt7562]

That swan got off lightly! Atleast until its signets are poisoned by the corroding rare earth contents of the phone.

[@tshrig]

I cringed when I saw that too... as well as the carving on the tree. I love the song though.

[@simonidastankovic2627]

Greatly done Johny...Yeats would aprove!

I went out to the hazel wood, Because a fire was in my head.
