Great song :) I really like the story behind this. My dad is just like Abby's parents. He constantly calls me & brother asking what we're up to. I can understand that he want to make sure we're okay... but he really should cool it, at least with my brother. He's 21, he can look after himself.
It sounds like Abby got in a plane accident and died and became a ghost or an angel. That's why she's not gonna call and that's why she can watch them from the rooftops.
@MikeLombardoMusic Great stuff man you have totally are be coming the next Ben Folds Oh also what is the keyboard slash piano you use(brand and type)?
@MikeLombardoMusic Thanks, also like how openly you answer my question, you my hopefully in the near future friend called mike is definitely not what I call a robot partner which is a partner on youtube that ignore the fans and treat them like numbers instead of people, but I knew you were a cool guy and really that's what's youtube is for, making new friends. : )
@LyricsToMyLife Basically, the way I'm reading it, Abby's parents are helicopter parents -- always hovering over her, forcing her to call and check in, etc. The constant strain of living under her parents' excessively tight reins finally makes her snap. She gets her stuff packed, breaks her phone, and watches through the roof as her parents get more and more worried that she doesn't call. She finally takes her suitcase and runs away -- this is the price her parents paid to find that Abby was OK.
@TheLaurlyn Instead of going home to her family, she is a mega creeper and sits on the city rooftops watching them waiting nervously around the phone. It's in the last verse.
Wow, this is the best stuff I've heard in a while. A lot going on melodically. I'd like to cover this on guitar. I gotta say I'm a little scared, though, haha!
@es6395 I think Margo was John's argument against the Manic Pixie Dreamgirl stereotype, to be fair. She seems perfect at first because we view her through the extremely biased viewpoint of Quentin, and we later find out she's kind of a selfish asshole, and he hasn't 'imagined her complexly' :)
HEy brother, that's my favorite Mike Lombardo Song, I hope you will come soon to Mexico, you rock my friend. I hope someday I will become a great musician, now I'm 16, but when I will be like 18, I want to study performance so I will become a great drummer. Bye. M.L. ROCKS!!!
Saw you last night at The Space, again. Wanted to say how awesome this song is, and how well it fits my NaNoWriMo project. Well, if Abby was born in Medieval Wales, and was the crown princess, and her name was Ani.
I am listening to this on repeat. I'll admit, before the Triple Rainbow Awesome Tour, I wasn't your biggest fan by any means, but I really really love your music now!!! :D
Part sad, part warning, part creepy, completely fantastic.
Beautifully filmed.
Thank you for writing music and for being such a down-to-earth person when I met you on tour. Very, very, very glad to be seeing you on the Triple Rainbow Awesome Tour!
I don't understand the story behind this. Am I daft, or is anyone else confused? Did Abbey's phone break, and that's why she didn't call, or is there a deeper meaning that I didn't catch?
This was beyond amazing, Abby never is my favorite song of yours. I can't even begin to imagine how amazing the video would have been if you would've had more money at your expense((: Great job!
Hey Mike, I'd love to make a pro music video for you of this song. My future wife's name is Abbie. When she was a kid one leg was amputated just above the knee, so she only has one. When we heard your song we truly loved it. It's very Ben Folds. We changed the lyrics from "They watch her all the time" to "She's only got one leeggg", for fun, but Abbie does feel like they've watched her her entire life, although you can imagine why. But seriously, would love to do it. let me know.
I know I haven't commented in a long time. Life keeps you busy. 'Abby Never' is one of my favorite songs. But, this video didn't really catch my interest. I think your original one was much better. Because that's what it was, original. It was rough and unedited, there was no set. I think it suits your creativity better. Now, before anyone posts comments about me 'ragging on Mike', that's not my intention lol
I merely stating that I liked the original video better.
I listen to this song atleast every other day like 4x, ITS SO HARD to get tired of this song. makes me think of the beatles, i'm going to figure it out on guitar. PLEASE KEEP MAKING ORIGINAL MUSIC. you inspire me
really, really, liked this. :) mr. Lombardo, you've mixed two of my main passions in life, youtube and piano playing. you are my favourite youtuber right now. thank you for existing. :P
LOOOVE IT. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Seriously. First of all, I just love this song. Secondly, the video was SO COOL. The lighting was cool, too... kinda too-bright. I don't know how to describe it, but I LIKED it. Can't wait for more music videos!
@InsaneToTheExtreme By what? We did this for free between 2 states. We didn't have the normal budget of $10,000 or so that it takes to make a video. Unless you're paying...
@MikeLombardoMusic Oh, I didn't know you were doing it for free!?! That changes things, I just meant there was a lot of build up for it beforehand... Don't get me wrong; I was still pretty impressed but just thought at the time you must have done it on a budget etc
@MikeLombardoMusic your music TRUELY inspires me. I can relate to your failures man, i've tried starting over 30 bands. you should of won that contest. This song could be SOOOOO BIGGGG, and i usually play hard rock. When I get signed to a major label and have money I will sign you in a heartbeat.
@MikeLombardoMusic I find it looks like a true blue studio produced video. ^^ Better than some others actually. Not all videos have to be flashy and expensive.
I was initially worried when I found out you were making a music video, because I thought the story was so specific that the video might get boring very quickly. But I think you kept it fresh. I feel like each shot was interesting. I particularly enjoyed the stool to piano moment (3:03) and on. The one thing I would've liked to see would be some reflection of the family's anxiousness. Otherwise, I'm with TheManyFacesOfMe. A Hey Molly video would be great. Fabulously done, as always.
well done. I can tell you guys put a lot of effort into it. And I haven't heard that one yet, so it was nice to have a video to go with it! And I saw below that this was shot in three different states? Nice.
i love this song! i always find myself singing it after work everyday! =) that's how often i listen to your songs...love the video too, it's perfect for this song!
Thought it was great except when you showed Abby dropping her cell phone the second time. Felt like you were just reusing footage since you hadn't filmed enough. Other than that, loved the video.
@HopefullyShrinking We actually filmed way too much. The phone being dropped is basically the entire point of the story. When it's shown in the beginning it's a flash forward.
Wow! I'm really impressed! I love what you did with the saturation and brightness! The shakiness of the handheld cameras really added to the feel of the video. It helped me feel Abby's frustration, although I'm not entirely sure why. Despite being in different states, you pulled of the instrument shots very nicely. Again, I"m impressed!
P.S. Thank you for NOT falling off the roof and getting hurt. That would have been very tragic!
I didn't like how you were always looking into the camera. It's not that you have an ugly face though lol. it just didn't feel like you had as much emotion. And how sometimes you were without your piano :O I think you really shine when your shown playing with it!
loveloveloved it. you are so cool. (only thing i wouldve done was to have one pan of you playing your piano and then to abby further down the roof, even though you probably didnt shoot those at the same time)
I don't like how some of it is 16:9 and others are 4:3, You can also see the camera man and equipment either in the shadows or plain daylights. I did however like the high contrast/ saturation you put on some of the videos, however that to cut in and out. On your next music video (If there is a next one) i would strive for a little more consistency. Good first attempt!
Mike, you look like such a badass <3 Great video, great song... one day I'll figure out what it means. Guess I'll just have to keep listening! Keep up the awesome work!
Awesome video. I love when you come out with music videos because I'm pretty bad at listening to lyrics...I hear the music first and will sing along without even realizing what I'm singing, but your videos help me get past that and and actually hear the whole meaning of the song as opposed to just the tune.
A thought occurred to me. Since Alex is prominently featured on bass, does this mean that Ellen has gone the way of Pete Best and John Rutsey (only on bass)?
Really, it was a great video. I do love what you did with the stop motion and the color saturation. I am also incredibly in love with this song, even though it makes me sad.
WOAh! cool last name dude! it's my last name too. probably no relation, but still cool!

Mike, you look like such a badass <3 Great video, great song... one day I'll figure out what it means. Guess I'll just have to keep listening! Keep up the awesome work!

Your scenes on the pitched roof made me a bit uneasy. I guess you are not as afraid of heights as me then. ;)
The video turned out great, though. I love the vibrant colours in Abby's scenes.

Awesome video. I love when you come out with music videos because I'm pretty bad at listening to lyrics...I hear the music first and will sing along without even realizing what I'm singing, but your videos help me get past that and and actually hear the whole meaning of the song as opposed to just the tune.
u rawkkkkk!

I'm amazed by the falling cell phone shot every time.

A thought occurred to me. Since Alex is prominently featured on bass, does this mean that Ellen has gone the way of Pete Best and John Rutsey (only on bass)?

Ahhh this was sooo cool! I loved the way you made the shots of Abby really saturated. It made her hair look so yellow, like it was glowing.
This has always been one of my top 3 favorite MiLo songs, and this totally out did my expectations.
Also, Alex has some seriously beautiful hair. It's like a shampoo commercial.

Piano rocking on a rooftop? Are you insane?
Really, it was a great video. I do love what you did with the stop motion and the color saturation. I am also incredibly in love with this song, even though it makes me sad.

I love the way the colors pop!! And also the little bee bop that the guitar player has going on. :)

the ony thing extra i would have liked to see would have been a sceen where all three of you guys are playing at once
most vids i see now adays with bands have that shot and i really like it cuz it shows everyone at once

@henry12350 We're actually in different states, so it's actually multiple rooftops, which is why we don't appear together.

That was a really well shot music video! I love how everything was over-saturated, it looks great. And this is possibly my favorite of your songs [:
