Friday Zen – “The Log Driver’s Waltz”
Over the years, there have been a ton of great animated shorts from the NFB, Canada’s National Film Board. Growing up in Canada, the songs from some of these shorts have become embedded in our brains, and few more so than the lovely, lyrical “Log Driver’s Waltz”.
It will always be one of my favorites, for its whimsy and its almost entirely Canadian style of story telling. Based on a song by Canadian Folksong writer Wade Hemsworth, it is sung by Kate and Anna McGarrigle.
Believe it or not, this is on my iPod. 🙂

I actually find that really easy to believe…
So awesome, I used to watch this as a child. It brought tears and great memories. Thank- You
I have now had that song stuck in my head ALL weekend. I had to look up the lyrics on Mudcat, though.
