    "Sleep Eye" - Elizabeth Mitchell and You Are My Flower

    Artist: Elizabeth Mitchell and You Are My Flower

    Song: "Sleep Eye"

    Album: Little Seed: Songs for Children by Woody Guthrie

    Description: As I said in the main blog the other day, this is one gorgeously-filmed video.  As one would expect from the title, don't watch this one expecting to be rarin' to go.  Definitely one for the down times.

    "Sleep Eye" - Elizabeth Mitchell

    Artist: Elizabeth Mitchell

    Song: "Sleep Eye"

    Album: Little Seed: Songs for Children by Woody Guthrie

    Description: This is such a minimalist song video -- and in it, is its beauty.  Mitchell and her husband Daniel Littleton with little more than two guitars (one used only for percussive purposes) create a perfect little lullaby, recorded live at the Smithsonian Institution.

    "Grassy Grass Grass" - Elizabeth Mitchell

    Artist: Elizabeth Mitchell

    Song: "Grassy Grass Grass"

    Album: You Are My Little Bird / Little Seed

    Description: This video is actually a couple years old, made for HBO Family and Classical Baby: The Poetry Show.  But now with the impending release of Mitchell's Woody Guthrie tribute Little Seed, it's getting a new push.  Lovely computer-generated collage work.
