Vincent (Starry Starry Night) - Don McLean

[@WandaRibeiro]

I'm speechless! You're magical, my friends! You joined four special things, the melody, the lyrics, the singer and of course those fantastic Works of Art of Van Gogh. Thanks!

[@specialrider54]

Glad you enjoyed it, Wanda. It was a labor of love making this video. Dave

[@WandaRibeiro]

@@specialrider54 It is my pleasure, dear Dave. Your work means that you're an artist, too. Wanda Ribeiro, from Brazil.

[@luciellegeorge4285]

This song is for every soul that feels they don't belong to this world.

[@99baggett]

Beautifully done! Pure poetry... "Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and gray Look out on a summer's day With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Shadows on the hills Sketch the trees and the daffodils Catch the breeze and the winter chills In colors on the snowy linen land..."

[@johnmcdowell5739]

The work you put into this is STILL special..to be enjoyed for sure.

[@halinkaczarnecka]

Beautiful, the best compilation of paintings. THANK YOU.

I just saw a movie Loving Vincent, please find it and watch it too. I only wish your video could be at the end of this movie... This movie is simply beautiful.

[@paulinechapman5669]

I can only play this once a year..so beautiful …but tears my soul..Vincent was so broken..and never had hope that one day he would be whole..🇨🇦

[@sushigirl1069]

A song painted with beautiful lyrics will never fade

[@specialrider54]

[@specialrider54]

Thanks for watching. Dave

I named my Son Vincent after this song. It still gives me the chills. My Vincent died also an Artist. Wonder if the name Vincent is a curse? But I was dying when I gave birth, and they asked in case I died what to name him. This song came over the Hospitals intercom, it was so Beautiful. :I said' Vincent" Never knew, he would die on the streets of Detroit. Just like the real Artist, Broke and all alone. Most Beautiful Song ever heard is Vincent. And I Love Both Vincent's, Vincent van Gogh always painted what was Truth, and the sadness behind the Grief. And this is the best Videos ever created. Thank you so much for all the work You did with the Real Vincent. We are all. Loving Vincent"

[@grazynakowalska1181]

I'm very sorry that you lost your son but believe me you heard that song for the reason the reason I cannot explain but I feel for you I feel your pain see I went through traumatic experience five times at least in my life but if you are believer no matter what got you believing in because I believe is only one God no matter what name they call him be strong💝💝💝💝💝

[@clydemaggard3792]

So very sorry and sad for you, for him and your family! God Bless You!!

[@athenazzz6]

I have watched this a number of times now...this is the best one of Van Gogh's works with McLean's song by far. So well done, thank you; edited and worked with heartfelt TLC...as only it should be. I second the "superb" comment.

[@specialrider54]

Thanks so much for your generous comment. Dave

[@snakemansnakes1]

Just superb I have always liked this song from it's inception and now it's resurrection You have created a very fine video montage with all these wonderful paintings to match the beautiful words. Very well done. many thanks.

Beautiful video very well put together. Congrats and Thank You. Made my day.

[@Lowdenjim]

This is beautifully constructed Dave - Van Gogh is the ultimate artist; every painting pure gold. I'm visiting Amsterdam soon and have been asked to do this song for a friend there; thanks for this!

[@kandacecleland5068]

Beautifully synched video and music. Well researched and wonderfully annotated. Thank you!

[@specialrider54]

My pleasure, Kandace. Thanks for your kind remarks. Dave

+Carol Hughes Thanks Carol. I am flattered by your very generous remark. Dave

[@smartalek180]

Stunning work! Can't thank you enough both for all the work entailed in making the slideshow, and for your choice to promote this track in a real hifii bitrate. Music of this calibre deserves no less. Wish every uploader had the same respect for the music, for the artists, and for us poor listeners. Ya done good.

[@specialrider54]

smartalek180 Thanks so much for your very affirming comment. It is most appreciated. Cheers! Dave

[@stefyguereschi]

LOVE THIS SONG AND Van GHOGH picture🌹

[@anitaheidenreich912]

Great redux! MY favourite video (and I have visioned quite a few) on this wonderful song about an extra-ordinary artist! Thanks Pick for Peace :0)

[@specialrider54]

Thanks for watching, Anita, and for your very generous comment. Dave

[@specialrider54]

Thanks for the kind comment, Jim. I truly enjoyed making this particular video. You should get a good look at many of Vincent's canvasses while in Amsterdam (I'm envious!). Although I live on the other side of "the pond", I have managed to see a fair number of his paintings in Boston and New York. They are revelations! Best to you from New England, and pick for peace. Dave

[@fmfleming]

Thank you for putting together this beautiful video. One of the best I've seen on KZbin.

[@specialrider54]

+fmfleming That's very flattering indeed. Thanks so much for watching and for you very generous comment. Dave

[@awn263]

+Pick for Peace! I was sent this via email and it was great! Unfortunately, it was a PowerPoint Presentation, which of course isn't able to be shared. But with a bit of searching, I found this one that is able to be shared. Thank You for this video. I've always loved Vincent van Gogh's work, not to mention Don McLean's superb voice.

[@fmfleming]

+Pick for Peace! You're welcome, Dave.

[@specialrider54]

+D F You're very welcome. I am glad you enjoyed it. Dave

[@specialrider54]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Dave

[@creativeplanetjanet]

Pick for Peace! Wow! What a labor of love! Every known VanGogh painting must be in this video! I didn't know Skeleton with Cigarette was VanGogh and Don McLean's "frame-less head on nameless wall" made me smile. And you even listed every painting in the info section! Thank you so much for this!

[@specialrider54]

creativeplanetjanet Thank you! It was a real pleasure making this video and it's most gratifying to receive positive comments such as yours. Cheers from snowy New England! Dave

[@creativeplanetjanet]

+Pick for Peace =)

[@creativeplanetjanet]

Pick for Peace! =) Cheers from snowy Akron, Ohio! It is now 4 degrees and the windchill factor is 8 degrees below zero! I've been wanting to experiment with throwing boiling water into the air to see it freeze before it hits the ground and blowing soap bubbles to see them freeze and shatter, maybe photograph them - but I'm not in the mood to go out there now. Brrrrrr! I'll stay in my living room under my Snuggie for now. Haha! I imagine you can top my story though. Hope you are safe and warm! Janet

[@specialrider54]

creativeplanetjanet Thanks, Janet. Not quite so cold here, but plenty of snow and more on the way (gulp!). Looking forward to spring. Best to you! Dave

[@MonElOneGOD]

My second son's middle name is Vincent, named after Vincent VanGogh and he does underground hip hop goes by the name QWEL=Question Why Evil Lives. he has several songs on youtube. toured Europe several times, and japan as well as most of the US.

[@specialrider54]

Thanks, Ray. This was a very enjoyable project for me. Van Gogh is to my eyes what John Fahey is to my ears. Dave

[@PoetessPossessed]

Beautiful video! I enjoyed watching and listening.

[@mariaellis6551]

[@gzh3648]

If only he knew what he meant for the world. Like they did in Doctor Who, just take him from his misery and show him that he was a great artist. Though he didn't know much about perspective.

[@specialrider54]

Yes - Vincent's artistic passion took no prisoners. I sometimes wonder if that fire would have been diminished had he been successful during his lifetime. Thank you for watching, and for your comment. Dave

PERHAPS they never will :(
