By and Bill Garvey, 1987. Video directed By Leslie & Mentel. Mentel/Virtanen Productions. Goodbye Horses“ is a 1988 song sung by Q Lazzarus. It was written and produced by William Garvey. Four versions of the song exist, which last 3:12, 4:20, 5:40 (video version) and 6:28 (the extended version). According to its writer, “the song is about transcendence over those who see the world as only earthly and finite. The horses represent the five senses discussed in the Bhagavad Gita and the ability to lift one’s perception above these physical limitations and to see beyond this limited Earthly perspective.“[1] The song was featured in the 1991 film The Silence of the Lambs,[2] and was released as a single in the UK via All Nations Records. In 2008, a set of remixes by William Garvey was released, titled “Goodbye Horses - The Garvey Remixes“. It includes the remix made exclusively for the film Clerks II.
