I just purchased it "iTunes". I hope she tours east coast (Baltimore). We'll hear her in a collab. with Kayne West. A new version of Turn Up the Lights. :D
I remember Listening to this in 2007, and now it's 2011 and I still love it...and it brings back good and bad memories...but I still love your music Lauren.
hey, i recognize that fire alarm. you don't need to panic, just hit acknowledge alarm/trouble, then call for help, and depending on what kind of alarm it is, call facilities or the fire department... and then you are done!
lol, ive spent the last 3 days trying to figure out how to play this on the piano just by trying to watch this video OVER and OVER again! THAT PIANO LINE IS DIFFICULT!!!! You've got some MAD skillz!
But I must say that I was a little sad that you didn't have more piano in the CD version of this song. It sounds so great and heartfelt with the piano. But other than that the CD is awesome!!
This song is gorgeous. The verse: "I am too but inevitably everything is gonna be okay. Whatever that means. What the fuck does that mean?" made me want to scream YESSS!
This is the 3rd of your videos I have watched. This is the best one so far. I love the video effects you used to tell the story of your song. This is very artistic. Not only are you a great singer and musician but you are a very artistic videographer.
Hi Lauren. Your music is great, but you need an "About me" page or something. Are you in school? How far are you willing to travel to perform? How did you get into music? Claim your web destiny and set up a homepage!
So this comment is a little late being that this video was posted a year ago today, but oh well.
I think you are a fantastic singer/song writer. My dad owns a record label and when I first watched your videos, I thought to myself, "He needs to sign someone like her."
I love the lyrics to your songs. They're superb. You have a lot of talent. Keep up the great work :]

Just stumbled on this video... wow... I like it much! It's pretty much whats going on in my mind, too.. ever these thoughts mumbling around, not making sense but keeping me awake..
I get all confused if I sleep somewhere new.. start to walk in my sleep and stuff(freaks me out!). Maybe that's what was going round with you? New room or something? Oh whatever.. I'm gonna watch your other videos now! Great song this one!
love this song so much,,,or what i mean its my fav till your next one.....watched the High Fidelity 8/3/08 post by rochesterNYmusic....now I know the chords,,and I love playing it.
I am painfully aware of how bad the audio quality is on my videos. I actually just recorded this song with a full band for my next album. Don't worry, no organ part.
Oh, coolio! I'm trying to do a cover of this song, and the chords I have for the beginning are C-Em-Am so it's like C Em Am I have an Arsenal of Daggers... I'm not sure is that's right, but it works fine. Then for the chourus-y thingy F C Thoughts go in but they don't come out G Am Until I'm talking in my sleep Then the '(I'm not scared of being wrong No, I'm just scared of never being right)' goes back to the C-Em-Am?
And the little part after the chorus is just the chords from the verse (or play something better because my piano skills are pretty weak). Lemme know how that works out for ya.
Eh, I was close. I was gonna do it on guitar, and I just saw one of your video responses, and Jesus CHRIST, you strum fast. I'm good at either strumming OR singing. Haven't nailed them both at the same time though. I'm working on it. And I turned the lyrics into a poster, which is on the ceiling, so I look up at it when I wake up. I did it in Crayon.
BUT! Getting back to the music: Dude! If anybody were to look at your video, you piano skills are FINE! You're your own worst critic.
wow look at this, 2 comments in a row 12 hours from each other, lol...... I can't stop listening to this song, it's been stuck in my head all day..........
Great song i loved it!!! i remember once i yelled in my sleep and woke myself up but that was only u time... lol but anyway keep up the good work i love ur song and voice...
So, I had the same thing! My room mate was all, is there something you wanna talk about? Mine went away too. I never figured out why I was yelling and my room mate was less than descriptive about what I was yelling about, I guess my yelling could have been less than descriptive as well. Ahhh, college....
Tonight, when you go to NY for your concert, go see Manhattanhenge when the setting sun will align with the east-west streets of Manhattan's main street grid. Look it up on wikipedia. You'll thank me.
hey i really like how it's a music video type thing, and i can totally see you being famous someday... you're really a talented and creative person. i hope to see a music video for that song on mtv someday! keep songwriting and singing!
It was good back then, but it is wonderful to see the evolution to this point.

I really like the song.
A thing that caught me was - who did do this kind of editing first, you or Julia Nunes?
