Transcendence- Lindsey Stirling- Behind the Video

[mitttube]

I wanna marry this woman, really.

[hossjaeger]

Dude, I read into this even more when I first watched the video and saw a hint of Plato in the Cave. That reality is nothing more than a projection, an illusion, and that there is a truer world beneath it. Mind-boggling.

[odonthalia]

Or maybe you are transcending Yanni

[pete7645]

I would love too see you and Christina Grimmi create a musical masterpiece together.

[LolLordPancho]

Loving yourself for who you really are is truly the best way to be happy in life.

[OohSooDead]

@LolLordPancho I'd love myself too if I could play Piano like she plays Violin :O

[LolLordPancho]

@OohSooDead

Everyone has some kind of musical talent it doesn't need to be piano or violin it can be whistle or drums for example.Search for it and you will find it.Never give up to despair:)

[07Bbobby]

Beautiful Music, Artistic video absolutely brilliant!! You should jam with Kaitlyn Maria Filippini! She's under Manheim's label.

[thatsjustme09]

[Brandonlovesblood]

[EpicalBunneh]

Ur basically telling me u MADE this song? o.o gawsh ur like baby jesus (violin) crist :o ♥ u jesus! xD

[cocokid115]

We all love you Lindsey.

[mrbob806]

Met at BYU. Incredibly modest, kind, beautiful girl that loves music. I have a sneaking suspicion that Lindsey's LDS, just like me. Anyone else that agrees?

[EXTRON180]

@mrbob806 You know, I think I could almost tell the moment I first watched her videos, after hearing she lived in Utah. Aren't the best people always LDS ;D?

[mrbob806]

@EXTRON180 heck yes. "Mormons" for the win.

[EXTRON180]

@mrbob806 High Five :D!

[TrippennRazzer]

@mrbob806 What does LDS mean? Does it mean religious?

[mrbob806]

@TrippennRazzer LDS is an abbreviation for Latter-Day Saint, which is reffering to a memeber of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. commonly (and incorrectly) referred to as Mormons. we usually go with, "yes, I'm Mormon" because it's extremely annoying to have to repeatedly explain that we aren't called Mormons. and before the topic comes up (it always does) we are NOT polygamists.

[VideoMask93]

@mrbob806 So you are called...what, then?

[TAPriceCTR]

@mrbob806 the leaders have said it is not inapropriate to refer to members of the church as mormons so yes, we are called mormons just as people named william can be called bill, it is a heck of a lot shorter than "members of the church of jesus christ of latter day saints" but it is inapropriate to refer to the CHURCH as the mormon church.

[mrbob806]

@TAPriceCTR oh yeah. entirely correct. but, calling members of the LDS church Mormons isn't official, and was started by people uneducated about our religion.

[TAPriceCTR]

@mrbob806

my official name is thomas alexander price... I rarely use it. my mom refuses to call me anything other than tommy which is not even a piece of my official name. people don't use official names.

[mrbob806]

@TAPriceCTR Which is why we usually call ourselves LDS, rather than the full name; Calling us Mormons is like your mother calling you by your best friends name.

[TAPriceCTR]

@mrbob806 she's not just LDS, she's an RM

[killemall1983]

@TAPriceCTR

What is RM?

[TAPriceCTR]

@killemall1983 returned missionary. it means she dedicated 18 months of her life to the gospel. no dating, no college, no job. just studying and teaching the gospel.

[mrbob806]

@TAPriceCTR since posting some of these comments, I have discovered that. It's good to see people like her can get to be well known just by having fun doing what they like to do

[joonemadaret]

I just want you to know Lindsey, I think you are absolutely amazing and lovely. Your liveliness and character lifts my spirit whenever I see your videos, specially the "spontaneous me". Always be yourself :)

I think I'm in love a little bit :">

[dawnisdark33]

9 People fail at life and let others control them.

[xeroxephyr]

yep, we all love you for being you

[AngelWithScars]

})({ here's butterfly for your awesomeness!

[AonGuardian]

2:09 - Quite a profound statement.

[kj3416]

I like the "Behind the Scenes" ones because you get to see what the writers were wanting to portray in the video.

[prplpoet22]

74,571 people love you for who you are!

[mrbob806]

@prplpoet22 More than just that. Some people love her for who she is, but are too busy fitting what's being projected onto them to bother clicking it.

[prplpoet22]

@mrbob806 Very true.

[deckdrifter]

it is a great vid but would have been even better is she use her first original song for the vid i mean think about it

[roscoe123ize]

u r awesome your music is loved. your a great musican and preformer. your music is very "smart" great! your r very great preformer. wish the best!!!!!!

[DarkScarlettVixen]

@kokoroyer yeah, actually when he was talking about Lindsey I thought maybe he had a crush or something, then he mentioned his wife and I like, "Whoops!"

[wizzrobe301]

The greatest transcdence is the transcendence of reality, after all it's just a bunch of electrical impulses you have. The only thing you can ever be a-sured of is your own existence. Everything else, while it may appaear to be real, and it probably is, you can never be certain of. My advice, enjoy it for what it is, reality is what we make of it.

This has been your philisophical lecture from Wizzrobe301.

Also, thumbs up for Lindsey! :)

[eriniamsmart]

Amazing <3

[kokoroyer]

holy shit I got blown away when he said he has a wife

[9906197439]

@kokoroyer and I was blown away when I read your comment.

[kokoroyer]

@9906197439 nothing on the guy, it just looked like he and lindsey were together :P

[IsTheCoW]

1:34 "Ohh, snap! Wrong outfit! Blackout, quick!"

[HCGamer1337]

0:41 Damn I thought that was my phone...

[cheiro68873]

yay im the 500th like :D

[lindiccars]

@cheiro68873 thats nothing i pressed like in this video 1000 times

[plesureingthemhoes]

damn she rockin it

[winterpoetry]

Brilliant! Lindsey, I love that you make music not only to entertain us, to bring life into the world, but you also go deeper, evoking emotion, and asking us to think and consider the world we live in. Thank you for making art not only meaningful and thought provoking, but fun and lively and spunky, too! Much <3

[dragoner2345]

Great vid

[WasAbiRASP]

Transcendence is absolutely my favorite video by Lindsey (with the possible exception of the Zelda Medley)!!!

[MsFlamingDareDevil]

That's exactly what I needed. Thank you a million times for making this beautiful piece of art. I will surely be watching the music video again, keeping in mind what you have said.

Somehow I knew you where LDS before it said you went to BYU <3

[MollyLou2dog]

That is a really good message to send out to people. Thanks Lindsey!

[pixiekitty015]

I love your work! You are adorable too! :)

[SemiSigh12]

As a student filmmaker I can't help but admire this in more ways than I can count. The music is fantastic, the performance is beautiful, and the execution is wonderful. The concept itself is... transcendent, if I may.

I love your work, amazing, please keep it up!

[One00Percents]

I feel so special to be a subscriber to someone with so few subscribers and is so talented but COME ON SHE DESERVES LIKE 5 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS :D

[moneyquickeasy]

@One00Percents So few subscribers? I don't consider 150,000 subs a few. Give the girl some credit.

[NeXuSJumpeR]

@One00Percents

Let's be honest...

EVERYONE has to know her music!

Therefore indefinitely subscribers would be amazing.

[Meghan1931]

omg i wish i were that good! im still just a third year violinist thugh1 any tips commenters?

[Czychu199115]

THE BEAST !!!!

[MegaOddly]

the meassage in this music video is really true

[KingdomEllipsis]

The fact that this song + video had a very good meaning behind it makes me love it all the more! Lovely work, you sing, you dance, you play the violin, splendid and amazing! I love your personality, so happy and carefree. :) You're a great inspiration! Keep up the great work, I know you inspire me. <3

[msBubbly27]

Thank you for your music and modesty and beautful insights you are amazing!

[Dj547zelda]

preach it sister

[Kelbricut]

Continue being you, Lindsey! We all love you because of that fact. We can see it shining through in every video! Don't conform..don't transcend.

[kaayvin]

SHES ADORABLE :(

[lightsout6122]

She plays the violin and creates music with the mind set of an 80s lead guitarist, I love it.

[BlitzBlaze]

im not sure how anyone could not see you as an amazing person, who has a passionate love about something

[thanh320]

lol at 0:41 I thought i got a message on my blackberry..

[Tramix666]

Seriously, just watching this making of gives me the energy to go deeper into my passions and to be confident with who I am. Thx Lindsey and Nathan

[ParKerZukii234]

Istn't she beautiful?!

[ciyean]

I wonder who is going to be the 20,000 VIEWER??

Is this you?

[snorberg87]

This is ridiculous. You are ridiculous. Mormons are ridiculous. I went from straight to gay when I saw this.

[pasifistrocker]

You should visit St. Petersburg, Russia sometime. The reason I say this is because in my opinion,it's a city of indiiduals whose goal is to "transend" (while they don't seem to realize it because it's part of their nature). I've lived there for 12 years. As weird as this comment might seem, it's the little things in life that often change your perspectives. Personally, paying close attention to these "puzzle pieves" my life's made out of led me to discover the most unique things. XP

[AnimeGirl1470]

You inspired me to work even harder on my violin!!!!! :D

[MegaErgoMan]

I love how you have a genuine personality, something that is not readily found in society anymore. Probably the best people are those with a passion for their work as great as yours. Your are my favorite instrumentalist and I wish you good luck as you continue your journey to success. YOU ARE AWESOME!!!

[DragonPoet101]

Hey, just finished watching some of your videos. Just wanted to say YOUR FREAKING AMAZING! THAT IS SO FREAKING COOL! Keep up the damn good work!!!!

[qwyudvb]

She reminds me of Alyson Hannigan

[MICHAELhawk54]

[DustinMaxim1015]

director totally likes her

[Hole1990]

you are amazing and well EPIC to say the least :-) you have a great team!! keep up the great work and cant wait to see and new videos as well :-)

[h3liumTV]

please don't be a pop-slut... your such a unique artist.... <3 I went from gay to straight when I saw this... ;)

[MegaCuir]

@h3liumTV I never went gay in my life because this kept me straight all these years!

[Davincent1324]

Because of You I will study Violin...It will be my 4th instrument so far

[skywalk996]

Wow!!  BYUtv let me know you were here. Your music and videos are amazing!! Keep up the good work. :-)

[florimprofi]

lindsey i love you give me you´r msn a skype plssss^^

[xaro1993]

This video is most popular in the U.S., Russia and Poland, of course:)

[sukay93]

I REALLY want to go into film and I was hoping to get into BYU but I didn't :( I really wanted to take the film classes and all that...Going to Idaho, But thinking about maybe transferring so that I can do what I actually feel like I want to do :)

You're inspiring to me Lindsey! :D

[syrnz]

D'accord il est beau ton amie dans le clip mais aime moi Lindseystomp AIME MOI .....

[ThePretonjds]

i think shes the best violinist

[ghostrank007]

just wondering what happened to that hiphop violin right round video?

[mzviolin6767]

so true

[warriorfire8103]

Love it....if I say more I'm afraid I'll cry

[ElCoolP]

OMG!! When I saw one of ur videos, I feel in love with ur music & ur dancing skills

[MrLionHat]

It'd be cool if your music were available in places other than iTunes. :/

[Matalic1]

she is beautiful :d

[fockyouboy1]

U R AWESOME....lol

I'm from Brazil....YEAH!

[EppicTV]

Love the message behind the song!!

:)

[Traveler2112]

Great insight on the creation of you music vid.

[pitifulication]

(y)

[k7elan337]

you are amazing :)

[KevinLizAndLife]

We Love Our Epic Violin Girl ^v^

[AdamKH99]

Awesome look behind the scenes. Thanks Lidsey! A refreshing view, JUST BE YOURSELF!!

[justaname111111]

THAT is so creativity !

[TheNr1CoD4pro]

"Transcendence" is a brilliant piece of art, "spontaneous me" still is my favoirite though. From my opinion, it could have had more of you visually playing the violin, because that's what makes your music so unique. =)

[TheRealBarnez]

@TheNr1CoD4pro Until I heard Electric Daisy, I agreed. I think it's safe to say she's continually improving.

[NJDalla]

interesting

[xaro1993]

Professionally.congratulates ideas ;)
