How does one get this song?

[JLGLtd]

Fabulous song, and amazingly shot! Great cinematography, absolutely, visually stunning.

[DrHeather123]

Aww Happy--it's been a while since we've hung out! Good stuff--I remember your release party like 2 yrs ago! Crazy :)

[MarellichiS]

AW, HAPPY!! What a BEAUTIFUL song! Sorry you only got the "Second Place" stamp. You, and the song, get a BIG FIRST PLACE from me! Keep on singing -- I'm listening! xoxoxo Cousin Mary

[jbott614]

loves this song it gets no credit

[BlueSkyOhio]

The news is ........ The video took second place. We thought we had the best video that really gave Ohio a nice positive message. The state and judges thought differently. They chose a great video but one with a much different view of Ohio 'The Visitor'

Please post your thoughts..

[greenbubba]

So RC Mob must have some pretty rotten copyright deals. No streams to be found. Miss the best dancing band since James Brown.

Nice song - nice film!

[srisner]

Totally a awesome place and how did they get to go up in the plane? Is the plane place available for rides and in Dayton too? I'd like to get that a ride like that for my Dad for Fathers Day--

This song is awesome too. I put in on my facebook.

[ruthiefrw]

Any chance Happy you will e-mail me ? I think I am in love with you man.

[xraygav]

Good stuff! Looks and sounds great. I only recently discovered Happy- he's a great example of the talent that's out there if you are lucky enough to find it.

[jordanarbenz11]

Good for you, Happy. I miss you.

[nhpbob]

Very good. As a fan of catchy songs, old theaters, AND Kristi Miller...I've favorited it.

[JonnyG614]

Nicely done. The images are beautiful. And, as always, a wonderful performance by Mr. Chichester!

An emotionally stunning little song by a woefully underappreciated musician from Columbus, Ohio, finally reaches it's full potential in beautiful video form.

[lkrivers]

What a beautiful song! Happy has a great voice. The video was fun to watch especially the aerial views.

This is a "soaring" success. Beautiful camera work and editing as well as lyrics and singing. Happy Chichester is the perfect singer for this song.

[degle28]

This was a great video interpretation of a unique song! My favorite shot was at 2:40-2:43...just something real about those few seconds!!! The songwriting was also very good. Thought that Happy gave a good vocal presentation throughout. Great concept altoghther....Four Stars from me!!

[degle28]

[qmoletoday]

First time I've heard this acoustic, love the plane

[DeepBlueEdit]

Dudes, it's a nice piece but did you really have to "bait" the metatags? Seriously, it's good without that.
