[HTCSWEOD]

some artists just put their hearts right OUT THERE... as deep as it gets... I'm glad you have music and wonderful talent

[vernonore]

Amazing voice grayharp1. Very talented.

[moyzie01]

cut off then hehe!!

life gives amazing inspiration doesn't it!

[moyzie01]

fantastic video well done shan :D

and I love the song life gives amazing inspiration doesn't

[yooo46]

so good it hurts, one of my all time favorite songs ever

[Kingtoot365]

Shannon, I am not kidding when I say that your music moves me. It is simply beautiful.

[1grinder1]

Thats really good.

You've got a very nice voice. [IMO]

also good luck with the 'Dan situation'. [saw it on Australian story tonight here. [in Aus obviously].

[needaman66]

wow, what a beautiful song and video. this doesn't require marks, it demands standing ovation. i am from brissy also, and i truely hope you two make it. i am deeply touched. lucky i am a tough carpenter.

[candrew87]

it is amazing how closely this song describes my relationship with a certain person who is no longer around, one day we just ended up stop talking to each other and when i heard this it made me think of her

[DrLemur]

Still love this Shan. Doesn't get old :)

[Evildarkme]

Omg! nice lyrics! Love the vid too! 5 stars! I would so give more if it was possible..

anyway i really have big respect for you!

[Lavenderrose73]

Man, that is beautiful, so heartfelt! Did you write that yourself? I've learned to express feelings in poetry I can't otherwise express elsewhere, so I can really relate to this. I never met any of you, but this whole matter has so touched my heart...and so have you!

[mrpitifulband]

Wow.

[eshninerforest]

This reminds me of Across the Universe for some reason. :)

[eshninerforest]

This is amazing!

[HTCSWEOD]

I love what you did with the color and contrast on the video... you have great concepts. Thanks for sharing with everyone Grayharp.

[Vidas666]

... after you make vid don't allow to be more then 20mB. If you upload one bigger then 20mb uTube will resize your vid to 10-20 and after the quality would be terrible. That's what i see video output is not good at all .

[Vidas666]

how i missed this one?? Nothing to comm plane and nothing to add good work on it

[gman91478]

this has been up for a week? how did i miss it? great video and song! if you say your CD will sound better, i can't wait to hear it! from one musician to another, you are a great one!

[grayharp1]

thank you gman :)

[djonova]

This is great!

[Didou518]

It's been a while now since I watch your vids.

You give to peoples you don't know by youtube very personnal feelings witch is just GREAT.

To me, you should try to add some reverb or chorus to your voice in this song. Actually it sounds to me a little "confined", well I don't know the word... in french "étouffé" but the deep feelings you trying to send deserve more deeper sound to enhance your beautiful voice.

Well, just continue your great job.

Big kisses from France ;)

[grayharp1]

i totally agree. i actually can't STAND the recording of this song, but i really was too impatient to work on it further. when i complete the CD i'm workin on, it will sound much better than this recording :) thanks for the input, didou ;)

[andressen]

...so when will your CD will be available?

[hrumphga]

What a GREAT song! I love what you did with the internal rhymes. I love complex thoughts put into simple words. And a very "hookable" melody. i;'ll be humming this tune all day. And the images fit is SO WELL! VERY, VERY touching. Great job! I'll be back for more.

[ssddfxh]

DrLemur,I hate u!

u killed our secret unborn child(of course Shannon and I and what should have happened in 2015)

Shannon,I love u!

[DrLemur]

It's okay I would hate me too :)

[Pippilly]

This is so beautiful I have featured it on my page. This to me is one of the best original songs I have heard on Youtube. I hope it gets featured. It's easy to see the inspiration and passion your lyrics came from. All the best to you guys!

[DrLemur]

Yes it does need to be featured *gets out his e-mailing fingers*

[Pippilly]

I've typed until my fingers have bled lol I can't tell you how many times today I've played this song. I smell a CD ***sniffs*** = )

[DrLemur]

You should hear some of her other stuff it's really amazing too. It's rumored that a link to her music Myspace can be found somewhere on her you tube profile page..

[grayharp1]

daniel, quit stalking my vids and get on msn, silly :)

[DrLemur]

Hey what are you doing awake? I'll be there in a sec.

[DrLemur]

Oh your vids are gonna be stalked by me for a long long time yet.. don't worry..

[DrLemur]

*stalks*

[royalicecream]

wow amazing!

[Ghostwriter6967]

That was really nice. You are talented and brave. Keep up the good work.

[sarasuperid]

Shannon, I really think you should go to Australia to see Dan. It has gotta be easier for an US citizen to get into Australia than any foreigner to get in the US. It would be cheap because you could stay with him or his parents the whole time. All you would have to pay for is the plane ticket. Perhaps you and he could go in half on the ticket since he has saved so much for visiting the states.

Anyways, just an idea. Seeing both your videos made me cry, & I just want you to be together.

[Pippilly]

What a love story... sigh

[pokernuts]

yeah Australia is better, except it's getting closer to Winter now.

[DrLemur]

There is no winter in queensland :P

[zebidee55]

Absolutely beautiful.

Why don't you come to Australia? You'll be welcomed with open arms...

[grayharp1]

i'm... i'm thinking about it :)

[zebidee55]

It's the same distance in either direction. My video 'Long Distance Relationship' shows my experience. Heading back over in July...

You seem pretty cool. I might stick around if that's OK with you. *subscribes*

[grayharp1]

haha, welcome aboard :) hope i don't scare you away anytime too soon. thank you ;)

[grayharp1]

oh, and i'll have to check that video out. i'm on a computer that doesn't have flash (errrggh) so i can't view it right now. but i will! :)

[zebidee55]

LOL! Take your time.

Don't worry - I don't scare easily. Oh, except for big spiders. They freak me out. ;)

[DrLemur]

.....

[DrLemur]

*watches again*

[djonova]

Well done! Great song!

[MyRants]

Absolutely awesome. Beautiful. Heartfelt, really shows off everything I love about your music.  I agree with the other poster about "The Ring" though. I spent the whole video trying to figure out what it reminded me of. Absolutely stunning. You're MUCH more talented than you think you are.

[kcayq5]

Beautiful song! It's good to see that (as far as I could tell) you kept both earrings for the most, if not all of the regular taping that you kept. :)

[Phivil]

Lovely song, sad but lovely.

[VivaToddVegas]

Very good!

[Trebornotaes]

Nice song Grayharp, its another that makes you sit back and think...i think.

The behind the scenes is funny though. I havnt been caught by the old "shoes in mud trick" since i was a wee lad, brings back memories.

You need some wellys lass.

Keep up the good work.

[Illuminatta]

Beautiful song. I hope he comes back. ;)

[grayharp1]

:) thanks illuminatta! good to hear from you!

[DrLemur]

I hope whoever it is, does too. He sounds like a real jerk though because really.. who in their right mind would leave that.. *points to Shan* in the first place? :)

[Illuminatta]

Oh, c'mon, Doc. You aren't foolin' anyone. ;)

[grayharp1]

LMAO

[Illuminatta]

tee hee

[DrLemur]

I'm not trying to anymore. So there :P

[Illuminatta]

'bout time! :P

[imsabafa]

Unfortunately, the harsh lighting deminishes what could have been the sort of dreamy video that would suit the song well! Other than that, Shannon, it would have been another captivating video like 'Life Is' is!

[CigaretteSmokingMan]

so does this mean there is something going on between you and this drlemur? very curious stuff

ps ~ your hot

[grayharp1]

my lips are sealed ;)

[DrLemur]

about the fact that your hot..  or..

[DrLemur]

Just not sure what you mean.. *scratches head*

[CigaretteSmokingMan]

*kisses the sealed lips*

[DrLemur]

Hey.. fuck off.. :)

[CigaretteSmokingMan]

I really can't I love her too much. i'm sorry doc I'll try harder.

[DrLemur]

You better try harder.. you old schitzoid. I'm keeping an eye on you.

[mickpatt1]

Another beautiful song and video. Very good editing.

[funeralsong34]

Very beautiful song, nice voice and excellent lyrics only problem I got is the angle on the black and white it looks like your got a scar on your forehead and I've seen you in color and your very beautiful, it just doesn't give you your due on your beauty, idk mind scars but black and white just amplifies it.. good job and don't take this as critizism but just pointing out something..

[OctoberRoad]

Glimpses of magic, Shannon. Glimpses of magic. -Shane

[DrLemur]

Only glimpses? That sir is an insult.. I'd say it was pure magic.. Now even I'M gettin ready to deck ya Shane after that one.. :)

[jimmidyjames]

This made me think "the ring" instantly. maybe just the mood i'm in. good songwriting.

[grayharp1]

ahhhh that movie terrifies me! get in a better mood, QUICK! lol

[grayharp1]

lol wow it does look like i'm gonna jump in a well... *shivers* creepy...

[Blakocity]

You have such a beautiful voice and such a elagant tone to your music!

I love ya!!!

[grayharp1]

thank you :) good to see you're still around! hope you're doing well!

[karenergy]

Wow! Beautiful Captivating :)

[jaimebakulic86]

HOLY UNDERPANTS!!!

This was sooo beautiful. Damn video compression!!

Shannon have you thinked about uploading your videos to Veoh as well and putting the link on your description here? I do that with some of my videos, so people with high speed connections have a better experience.

Great idea, great music, great, just great!

[ThoughtScientist]

sweet wailing effect near the end

[ProductPlacer]

Wish you were my voice coach.

[zwfwrestling]

jaw dropped. holy sheot. the echo/effect you have going on the piano is awesome.

have you considered double tracking your voice? just something i thought you might want to experiment with.

although on second thought, for someone with a singer-songwriter style, you have to be the most diverse-ranging voice/style wise i've heard yet. i still remember the first time i saw your myspace, it was full of r&b-ish ballad/jams.

actually your voice is too powerful too even need a double track.

[grayharp1]

haha i love how you were just having a conversation with yourself. i love the double tracking... elliott smith and john lennon... ingenius. :) maybe i will do that onea these days, sir. thanks for the recc!

[pablo2541]

Wow! Great job!

[grayharp1]

thank you pablo :)

[Beshimi]

you're wonderful!

[grayharp1]

thank you very much. i try really hard just to be "okay." :)

[Beshimi]

no problem. i'm happy to see you are still posting your material after all the youtube drama! you really have a talent and i wish you the best.

[chris3ff]

wow. this is gorgeous. you're golden.

[grayharp1]

thanks for commenting. i can't stand youtube the way it compresses my videos :( made it all pixelly! yuck! but i'm glad you liked it regardless!

[chris3ff]

nah, it's wonderful regardless of all that. what program do you use to edit and render your videos?

[grayharp1]

vegas 7.0 and it renders them as well. the problem is i don't know the proper compression... or what would work best. i've tried so many of them and the rendering takes SO long and then the uploading to even CHECK it... *sigh* annoying! :)

[ThoughtScientist]

see smpfilms' how to get sharper video tutorial, it works great for me: watch?v=03p3UlvkAT4

[DrLemur]

I love you  :)

[grayharp1]

*mouth zipped wide shut*

[DrLemur]

How can you zip something wide shut?

[grayharp1]

how can you keep your "eyes wide shut" when tom cruise and nicole kidman make a movie together? ;) lol

[DrLemur]

*shuts you up in the.. usual way* Ha.
