Blackwalk
Productions, the largest video making company in Canada,
was hand picked to complete the task of putting this story
to film. There was a real shift in thinking in terms of
how we wanted to present this song. Instead of a biographical
story being told, the Director, world renowned photographer
Margaret Mandruccolo, and I, decided to tell a story of
a drifter along life's lonely path, who meets a variety
of characters along his journey, and who ends up meeting
a young lady near the end...This lady may or may not be
my Mother... I leave this open for interpretation... but
we have a laugh before she disappears, and when we wave
goodbye, we are both better for meeting one another, and
I feel stronger as I push on down the desolate road. This
video was shot outside of Brampton, Ontario, but it has
the look and feel of the desert in Arizona or Texas.
