yup fairy floss soft wispy and sweet just how i imagine a fairy to be also when it floats away on the wind it looks like tiny fairies are carrying it away. i just bought this song and thought it would be nice to see were it came from
I'm a stupid american, so when I first watched this I had no idea what candy floss was. I assumed it was like actual dental floss, but it tasted like candy? Haha. Then I found out it was cotton candy and came back here to re-watch the video :) The song makes more sense now.
Been listening to the entire music playlist and I've gotta say the way you see the world is really unique and beautiful and this song really showcases that
@LaurentzBored Yeah dude, I realized that after like FIVE HUNDRED people told me that. I appreciate your reply though. And, If you used your brain, you might have figured that I'd realize after three whole months that I wouldve realized my mistake. But whatever. PEOPLE MAKE MISTEAKS.
Does anyone else think this is an Ani DiFranco-ish song? It's one of the few vids I have favourited, cos if I had it my way, I'd favourite just about all Alex's vids!
I was reading a book called candyfloss at my friends house and she said to me 'I love this song by alex day, its really cool' and now everytime I read that book I stop reading! :D
This whole song I thought candy floss was probably like one of those candy neclaces... But then I read some comments and it's COTTON CANDY!! Srry I'm from America :)
Being the American I am, I literately pictured dental floss made out of candy, until I realized...cotton candy of course. that being said, this is probably the sweetest song I've heard in a long time. =)
when he said ukilalys are cool (i dont know how to spell very well) did anyone else think that it sounded abit like when the doctor said bowties are cool
@TrolleyPower Well that's not what I was going for, but thanks.
You don't have to get angry; all I was saying was that it was ignorant to call something gay because a) it's offensive to gay people, and b) it's not even a good insult because it's not a bad thing to be gay. The Shakespearean insult was merely a suggestion for how better to insult people. You're welcome :)
I wish I'd get a ukalele as a present.Mostly, my presents are things like mugs and necklaces and little stuff like that.They're fine,and I am very thankful to my friends for actually bothering to look for a present to buy for me,but I currently have the same necklace three times.
