The cello throughout is like a strong moving structure that bears up the sweetness and clarity of your voice. I also like how the bell chimes in without a set pattern, like gentle encouragement once in a while. That’s very “you”. 
The images you selected for the video are beautiful and inspiring, especially the first one of the very pretty and studious songwriter.  |
Thank you, Liz, for your review and feedback!
I'm impressed that you thought of a deeper, uplifting meaning behind my cello runs. I'll have to say from now on that I intended them to represent flight without wings, because that sounds good!
But seriously, I really
did want the song to show how "high" on life people can get without using addictive substances, in the hopes of luring people away from them. (Ding!) <-- That was an encouraging bell-like tone.
And yes, wasn't that a beautiful and inspiring image of a very pretty and studious songwriter?

Thanks, Plank. As I know you know from your own music, when you make a song it feels good to share it, so thank you for listening.
