I wish we'd get an online video though. The main site has been collecting dust for quite a few weeks now...

Yes it has,
We have been talking about the Mary video in the "radio/video views" forum.

Cameron Bay.

hopefully we get to see the full version soon...

I have asked for a link from Warner Canada... hopefully they will have it for me soon so I can pass it along to you all.

Michael Dixon Management

^^ Thanks,
In the thread I mentioned before their is a link to the video that the production company put out yesterday.

It's in Quicktime format and under 10MB.

^^ Wow, thanks. Can't wait to see it. That'd be super cool. I like Mary, and honestly it seemed to be the most single-prone

I agree rolling, ever since the CD was released, I always felt "Mary" was the most radio friendly track (aside from the hidden track )

Video is beautiful!

Mary is great! Love the lyrics.

Agreed, and welcome to the board Postman.

I love Mary too. This was the first song of Sarah's that I enjoyed. Very touching.

I think Mary is a fantastic song, cant wait to finally see the music vid., but i think sarah has some other stuff that could work even better on the radio! i was addicted to day one and lucky me, and i know that lucky me has a video that was amazing. its just a matter of time before sarah haas 5000 members on this site as apposed to 500

Hi graham! Welcome... There actually are videos for both Day One and Mary... Day One, unfortunately, didnt' catch on to radio around southern Ontario as much as elsewhere.

Day One and Mary are both available on the director's website, http://www.flyingmonkeycreations.com/ (click "MTV" and they are the two on the left)

Lucky Me is availabel on sarahslean.com I believe

ohhhhh Google, you help me find random things http://www.randomhouse.com/wotd/index.pperl?date=20000921

I am terrible at explaining definitions myself.

Wow a google search I did gave me a lot on male genital waxing :shock: ... that and Norah Jones' old band.

Wax is also a town in Kentucky.


But anyways... wax poetic is a difficult term to explain specifically... I've also heard "wax philosophical," "wax lyrical," or "wax sentimental." I've usually interpreted it to mean going on and on in that manner (poetically, sentimentally, etc) but the dictionary definitions I find mostly refer to "to grow or become as specified..." i.e. she'll become poetic to her enemies (which, in other words, means she'll talk nicely about them... or to them... not sure which).

In context:

I've got all the courage I'll ever need
I wax poetic on my enemies

Or, she's courageous enough to, essentially, laugh in the face of her enemies.

That's the way I interpret the phrase, though my understanding of it has always been kind of vague.


There is also the potential she is using poetic licence to take the phrase out of context slightly because of the way it fits into the verse. I refer you to Alanis Morissette for examples of this... in addition to her supposed misuse of the word Ironic (still under debate), she also uses the phrase "You wax poetically," which, according to the link that elizalavelle provided us, is grammatically weak.
