Ivor Wood
Ivor Wood (4 May 1932 – 13 October 2004) was a prolific Anglo French stop motion director, producer, animator and writer known for his work on children's television series.
Born in Leeds to an English father and a French mother, his family moved to the mountains near Lyon, France after the Second World War, where he was educated. He studied fine art in Paris, and later worked in an advertising agency in Paris, where he met Serge Danot. Together they made the acclaimed French series Le Manège Enchanté (known in English as The Magic Roundabout), with Wood as the animator .
Following the success of The Magic Roundabout in the UK, Wood partnered with the British London-based animation company FilmFair (now part of DHX Media). Wood became both animator and director for a number of FilmFair's animated children's programmes, starting with The Herbs in 1968. During the 1970s he animated and directed Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings, Hattytown Tales, The Adventures of Parsley, The Wombles and Paddington.

Your Song
by: Over ItCome a little closer now.
Feel it kinda freak you out.
All the time its getting closer and closer.
Stuck in a kaleidoscope, right about to lose control
When I feel a hand on my shoulder.
Turn around to look- its gone.
Call it superstition but all my thoughts spin me around to you.
What became of you we may never know.
Finally found your wings and you gave it all to watch over me.
Finally found your wings and now your song plays on in me... on in me.
Find it irresistible
To pull the plug on logical,
and wonder how to live for the moment.
Who is lost and what's been found.
When and where and why we're down to resist the best explanation,
you know it.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
Time here is up. Floating away. Maybe it won't come back.
Dust chasing out heels, droplets of rain falling so gracefully.
Time pulled you away but now the emergency can wait.
[Chorus]
