Adore... "Je t'adore...." (to be taken preferably with a Ballard novel, say Unlimited Dream company, swallowed whole... lived a few miles from one another in leafy Thames-side sububurbia - eat David Lynch's heart out!)

Gotta dig that vinyl out. If ever the word "genius" is truly applicable, it is to Robert Calvert.

Obscure bit of trivia, but if anyone has read the "Revelation Space" series of novels by Alastair Reynolds, I would be surprised if this song hadn't inspired him when he wrote about the Greenflies, which are self-replicating nanobots that slowly devour worlds.

Thank you for the video, it is a truly gorgeous song by an artist who never got the fame they deserved. It's worth noting that this is the 7" single version b/w "Lord of the Hornets". The album version of these songs, on Hype, have a more polished and electro feel. I prefer this version. Forever yours.

My brother got me on to this song. It is a sheer delight. Thank you

I really enjoyed matching all the relevant hybrid roses to the words - thanks for your comment, but without the wonderful Calvert this would not be possible! LolloTankGirl

Read the name in Moorcock's King of London. Wasn't impressed by the Deep Fix, but Calvert's song The Green Fly and the Rose is tops as are the visuals.

"All good things must end"...sadly for all us Calvertaholics all the magic ended prematurely on the 14th August 1988!!

@steviesuperstar Yes: Robert Calvert wrote the words to Spirit Of The Age. He really was one of a kind.

so glad you like it - I've been asked to make another vid, but need inspiration. doing the background to all the specialist roses was fun and I think there was only one that had not been included...using 'paint' was primitive but worked for those few seconds of film lollotankgirl

@slitheen Hawkwind in my opinion were at their best when Clavert was with them. His writing and his voice....amazing. Spirit of the age is one of my faves

steviesuperstar

yeah think i agree the guy was way ahead of his time for way out ideas that were very thought inspiring

LolloTankGirl

I designed and worked on the stop motion 'lord of the hornets' vid for HeidiLandRover, but thought I'd like to do something with 'paint' Very laborious but rewarding and glad you like my vid - must start on another..... Lollotankgirl

LolloTankGirl

glad you like it - had great fun doing it and must sort out another!!! HeidiLandRover keeps calvert's talent alive as much as poss LolloTankGirl
