[chescaleigh]

@onyxspirals aw :) i'm brainstorming for the next one. next week marks 1 year in new york! so i have to do something cool

[The4444dddd]

This is such a powerfully emotional video! The visuals, the music, work SO WELL together. Fantasic Job!!

[softnpink28]

This background music is wonderful. The leaves are beautiful and that walking legs make me want to go to... lol.. what is the music in the background? I see I am not the only one asking..

[chescaleigh]

i found it on a royalty free music site. i don't remember the artist or title. my apologies

[tikitikiboom]

this is a beautiful vid. does ne1 know where i can download the background music? or the artist and title?

[chescaleigh]

i found it on a royalty free music site. i don't remember the artist or title. my apologies

[Rdcoaxum]

Love it! :)

[10stops]

nice song in the background 1:04 (from part 3)

[fitcoach2007]

Great beautiful video. makes you want to come and visit.

[KeenaButtaH]

this is beautiful. i like the song

[bowerybetty]

Absolutely beautiful. You really captured a moment. I love Manhattan for so many reasons, but the fall and winter there are really something special. Keep up the great work, kiddo. x0x0x

[26musiclover]

wow that was amazing!

[naturalesque81tv]

Mm...the guitar is sexy! Who is that?

[dabxsk8r]

Love the video! You're making me miss home :(

[MsPretty87]

fall is my favorite season...i loved seeing all the leaves (especially because i got to see them without having to rate them)...i must be getting sleepy bc that piece of paper around 1:04 irritated me more than a piece of paper should irritate anyone :) anywho, looking forward to the next one :o)

[gunlover2010]

a wonderful video....

so nicely done......

thanks 4 posting

[LiteSkinAndArmed]

hey thats funny i live on the J train line.....nice calming video.....good job

[mamankaya]

I loved it and just realized that I wish more people did videos of a day in the life of where ever they live. Not all the touristy stuff, just a basic day. So please do more videos like this, and feel free to say a little somethin' somethin' too. ;)

[chescaleigh]

thanks :)

no dialogue this time around. didn't feel like the video really needed it.

[bigmama45405]

I agree with you MamaKaya. Since I've never been to NYC, the view (including the leaves) would have been even more fun to view. "Artsy" is a good thing . . . Franchesca is a very talented young woman.

[whoiamisme]

Thanks for showing us fall.

I'm in a year long summer and didn't realize how much I missed the changing leaf colors.

[chescaleigh]

hey stranger! :)

happy to share it with you

[ezridax]

nicely done, gret music! who is it again?

[chescaleigh]

i don't know the artist. it's from freeplaymusic (dot) com

[bnme13]

very soothing video. a different look at NY. love the music, who is it!

[chescaleigh]

i don't know the artist. it's from freeplaymusic (dot) com

[hollyhollyrose]

Wow, I never really find NY to be that beautiful...

[kindsomali]

i won't be surprised

when your talent's worldwide famous

[chescaleigh]

what an incredibly sweet thing to say. it's comments like this that keep me going. i'm working my ass off up here. i'm determined to make it happen. thanks for your support and kind words

[ChrisEveryDay]

For a minute there I was expecting to see Al Jarreau sit on the bench next to you and bust out in song.

Good work.

[chescaleigh]

haa! hilarious!

[cynmille2000]

so peaceful.

[TSEfilms]

Your vids are always so beautiful. I hope my vids gets to your level.

[chescaleigh]

keep working at it! it takes time. if you look at my first videos they're pretty embarrassing :P i've been making videos for almost 3 years now. it doesn't happen over night. thanks so much for watching

[bigmama45405]

I love the music and very soothing vid. Thanks for sharing and next time please show more scenery even though the leaves on the ground was very "artsy"

[chescaleigh]

"artsy" ?

that was the point of the video silly :) glad you liked it anyway!

[rollerist]

Love it...

[kennosen1]

Very Soothing.

[jjbeejjuice]

[chescaleigh]

[Stamfurdgurl]

Okay-I looooooove the music! It's soooo relaxing. =0) The different views of the city in fall are nice too.

[MsDivaOneLuv812]

Gurl, ur talent is outstanding. Thanks for ur view of the NYC. Keep up the great work.

[virtueous001]

I have been studying on and off all day and this video is just the break I need. It is so peaceful. I am a lover of peace and mellow vibes. This is one of the best videos I have seen in a very long time. Thank you so much for this peaceful interlude.

[chescaleigh]

wow. thank you! i'm glad i could bring a little peace to your day. best of luck with your studies!

[anothablend]

I can't stop coming back to this video and watching it from start to finish, its like a great part of a movie we haven't seen yet

[chescaleigh]

wow! thank you so much! that's a huge compliment. i'd had this idea for awhile and i'm so very happy with how it came out. now that you mention it, it does have an opening credits sort of feel. i wanted it to be a view of my day in new york, and i think i accomplished that in a relaxing and different sort of way. i'm glad you like it!

[anothablend]

Yeah, and it also shows your versatility

[chescaleigh]

thanks :) i love changing it up with my videos. it gives me a nice challenge

[bearr7]

VERY GOOD VIDEO!

[Shineess1]

Those shots were just simply amazing. Beautiful, loved this video. Peaceful and put me in a trance.

[chescaleigh]

yaay! glad you liked it

[relaxedandnatural]

omg i needed that....i'm trying to get back to NYC and was totally missing it

[omizm313]

This is wonderful. Growing up in NYC and now living in Florida makes me miss the fall leaves. I love the sound they make through the music. An unintentional effect i bet, but still awesome as you are.

[chescaleigh]

as a florida girl i'm in awe of autumn. i've experienced it before, but this time around it's even better.

totally intentional. i liked that you could hear me singing along to my ipod at one point. i have no idea what i was singing, but i liked how it blended w the music along w the crunching leaves

thanks. glad you enjoyed it

[dunte86]

I like it! Very soothing. Lord knows i need to relax right about now...

[chescaleigh]

glad i could assist :)

[anothablend]

I love this video, it reminds me of all the nice things in my childhood , great music selection, go fran hhhhheeeeyyyyy keep doing your thing gurl

[chescaleigh]

thaaaanks!

[tayfan2]

You are very talented. That said a lot without saying any words.

[chescaleigh]

thank you thank you. it was fun to do something different. i think it's a nice look at my life here in new york and how taken in i am by the change in season. i'm really happy with how it came out. thanks for watching

[TonyaTko]

LMAO!!! @ 1:04 Kickin thru the NY Debris! LOL! at the discarded paper & the continuing to walk on thru.

This was beautiful Franny! Im proud of you

-Tko

[chescaleigh]

unintentionally hillarious! glad you liked it :)

[renpop0315]

I definitely want to visit NYC in Autumn even more after watching this. It looks beautiful

[chescaleigh]

it's wonderful. a little chilly, but it's perfect out

[lbrj720]

Two of my favorite things New York and Autumn i love Autumn one of the best seasons i think lol =)

[chescaleigh]

oh yes. hands down the best season

[crakhoBITCH]

pretty :)

music an everything :)

[starbrite336]

I like this! It reminded me of the movie Love Jones.

[chescaleigh]

i've only seen bits and pieces of that...maybe i need to watch it

[tatertot88]

am I the only one who thought that the random piece of paper/tissue dealy was hilarious?

[chescaleigh]

ha! no!

[26musiclover]

lmao nope i was laughing

[Samielle1]

Who's music is that? I just got home from work to watch and its sooo relaxing.

[chescaleigh]

i found it on freeplaymusic (dot) com. the song is called play it again

[adihsar]

I will totallllllly go out of my way to step on a nice big crunchy looking leaf. It's SO disappointing when there's no loud crackle though. Like I really feel my spirit drop a bit.

[sickphil71]

Yeah, it's probably a big transition for a little FL chickadee like you--you're probably used to being able to wear shorts, etc. Just remember, you'll probably have to wear a bra every day from now til late spring--otherwise, everyone will assume you're glad to see them.

[chescaleigh]

good ole phil. screw bras. it's all about layering tank tops

[sickphil71]

Ah, yes--I am constant as the Northern Star.

Good to know about layering.

[chescaleigh]

haa

[LilHalfHaitiBoy]

damn,yo...i cant believe its already autumn...i feels like the older i get the faster the world spins.... and i aint even that old......nice vid....

[TheSoctress]

Love your whole outfit/look that you're wearing when you're coming out of the train station!

[chescaleigh]

Thanks! I did a head to toe of the outfit on my blog. I was doing a presentation at FIT that day and wanted to look nice :)

[Machel15]

[chescaleigh]

[tdt1000]

When people take over your neighborhood that don't mind living 20-30 people in one room, rent will go up around there too loz

[Glynis]

[chescaleigh]

you. must. vist.

[MikeandToneRP]

[SADDAE2000]

[TheXDexperience]

Beautiful! Wait until Christmas time...its soo magical here!!

[chescaleigh]

eeep! i can't wait. i know it's gonna be cold, but i'm excited. are you going to the gathering in the city tomorrow??

[Fancylock]

Very scenic, I love the music. I always seem to find myself absent mindedly walk onto a little scrunched up pile of fallen leaves just to hear that delightful crunch they make. ^_^ Anyway,..there's a youtube gathering tomorrow? O_o Where, when?!

[chescaleigh]

it's in new york city 2pm at grand central station in the big hall
