Moon shadow moon shadow
Leaping and hopping on a moon shadow
Moon shadow moon shadow
And if I ever lost my hands
Lose my plough, lose my land
Oh, if I ever lose my hands- Oh, if...
I wont have to work no more

I was fortunate enough to be up on Dartmoor in Southern England during the last total eclipse that fully covered part of the UK. It was the most phenomenol experience, almost mystical in some strange way. It was eerie like nothing else I've ever experienced, especially as the shadow races towards you over the hills and the really rapid darkening as the moon hides the face of the sun. Just me, a friend, the heather and sounds of the birds, and even they fell silent as the darkness descended.
AWESOME.

To some, no explanation is necessary, and more to others, no explanation would suffice.
