Thanks for that Sparkie..

Very informative, but the end made me sad (again)

It was as if she/they knew it would be her last video.

I've had another thought...Not good for me..

I'm thinkin' that The White Horse could represent 'Fate'..

On the other hand, it could just represent a 'White Horse'..

I kind of thought it represented dreams/desires. What kid doesn't want a horse when they're growing up?!

OOOOO--getting deep here folks --it probably meant that they could only get a white horse on that day

Seriously this is a really interesting thread.

The children chasing a white horse.

Stands for all of us 'chasing our dreams'...but life could all end tomorrow, unlike the sea which goes on forever......

What d'ya think?

I think you're all reading too much into it, just enjoy it and relax.

I still think Roll Away is one of the most beautiful songs Dusty recorded and I wish it had gone to number one for her!

...But I like talkin about symbolism and all that Jazz, Rep.

I think that video definitely contained a 'message'...

...and yes, it shouldda been a MASSIVE hit!

That clip is from The 'Dusty Definitely' Documentary which was aired on BBC soon after Dusty's Death, Jack.

Its lovely isn't it?..

Sadly,I don't think we have got any videos of Dusty actually singing Goin' Back...

I LOVE the clip for Roll Away,I only managed to see it 2-3 days ago. I was sitting there crying my eyes out! :). Dusty looks absolutely gorgeous in it. I think there is a lot of symbolism going on in it, I mean the children may be a symbol of innocence or 'yesterday'. The horse could symbolise roaming free... it also could be a horse for effect mind you or a representation of Dusty's love of animals :).

Very interesting thread

Thank you so much, Frans, for posting the Roll Away video. I have a close friend who has made me swear I will let every one in her family know that she wants Roll Away to be played at her funeral. I keep telling her she's going to out live everybody.

The kids and the white horse have to do with the movie. I remember seeing Into the West a couple of times and I've completely forgotten the significance of the white horse.

uh, I teared up quite a bit watching the video and reading that article about how is was made. Sadly, I think Dusy always did feel alone inside. I'm sure it took so much energy to be around people and yet no one really wants to be alone - even if they say they prefer it.

Thanks again..

Robin

Somebody may 'shoot' me for asking this...

But is the 'Roll Away' video the only one where Dusty is filmed singing/miming actually 'outside'in the open air?.

I just can't think of another right now.
