good song good song

[Monscent]

I just saw this now. What an awesome song! Really love it. I have a question as well, the first scene as the movie starts out, where is that? I got a flashback from my Japan travels... Could it by any chance be out on Niijima? Probably it's not I guess, but thats what my head felt -.-

[ningyoko]

@Monscent I never got to go to Niijima. That must have been a wonderful experience for you! The night scene of me is outside of a park in Chiba, then somewhere near Asakusa-jinja, then several shots of Kamakura. The whole thing is interlaced with a roller coaster ride at Tokyo Disney ^_^ Ahhh...good memories!

[reedsjsa]

I still watch your vids and remember my time in that wonderful county. Iv been seeing you here for a year or so now and you always cheer me up,

May God bless you ningyoko. Please continue to live that exciting life and never loose your awe! Be true to your self and stay out of the darness of this world.

[bizrandom]

I watch this everyday.. thanks! I only have little brothers but this is how I feel about them!

[gingin33]

I love this song so much. This is not the type of music I would normally listen to, but this song gives me chills. You have an amazing voice. My daughter is named Melissa as well, so it really touches me. This is by far my favorite song of yours so far. I will keep checking on your progress. You have a great soul. Good luck to you.

[chriszhang1978]

nice

[misiuhustla]

sweet :D

[serchingforherprince]

Holy Cow...you have a voice I could only dream of! And your sister is an excellent lyricist! What a talented family you have!

[MrJackMason1324]

really awsome lyrics and beautyfull voice very hot

[kbam69]

Oh, forgot---thank you so very much for being a beautiful voice in this world. thank you for letting us listen to you. Please keep it up.

[kbam69]

Pure, melodic, wonderful. I am really not able to put into words how your songs affect me. Your soul is beautiful. You are a very blessed young woman. Don't ever throw away your spirit.

[cantescape1987]

Nice song.

[ritterdesregens]

A wonderfull song. Thanks.

[fuzzypsyops]

Phill strummed out a tune,

and i said "thats a number one record"

[drdiego3]

you make good amateur videos. How long have you been in Japan? I'm planning on going there for the first time ever in a couple of years. =)

[fergleskin]

I have listened to many songs, and I can safely say this is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard. There are teams of song writers in various record companies who wish they could write a song a fraction as moving as Melissa.

[xavianuspintus]

Your song is nice!

You have talent!

I hope you have sucesse!

[packerkk]

Good Job! I can't believe I have such a talented neice! Where does this come from?

[omgmx]

Another great one!

[luv2singmusic]

I really enjoyed this song. Great job, singing, writing....the whole package.

:)Shirley

[scathmandra]

What a beautiful song! I wish I could write like that. Your sister must be quite the inspiring person.

[manchi1572]

u need a band,but cool though...

[Evenoix]

So far this is my favorite song I have heard on your list ^_^;; it is really awsome!

[OkashiiAmerican]

Wow, that's cool cause I'm a little sister whose name is Melissa, but I know my sister doesn't care enough about me to actually write a song about how special she thinks I am. Your little sister is lucky.

[s4uc3ybaby]

I want to live with her in China.. or w.e that is :-P

[brucetheviking]

If this girl isnt a star soon i will lose my faith in what is good with the world.

Absolutly charming.

get that CD out soon OK!!!

yummy

[kissire9153]

nice voice, so talented. really.

[stclair2012]

Good work on the movie editing, you have a fantastic voice, and your guitar work is good too! Keep it up!

[GlitterKnitter]

you are so stinkin' cute! i wonder, since you are in japan, have you ever thought of taking up the shamisen? i've always wanted to, you should think about giving it a go!

[ningyoko]

I have TOTALLY thought of taking up the shamisen, since I don't find the lack of frets intimidating at all. I'm going to try to build one from a coffee can and wood, like they had in the music shops in my town!

Also I've tried the koto, which sounds amazing in a large group, but is too huge for my apartment ._.

[Scazarith]

Your family seems so happy.

[Monkeyfoot007]

You are very talented!

[leeleetof]

how ar u not famos, love the video, from amos

[BobUnderhill]

Excellent.

[HowlAN90]

I think you're really, really, really talented and I LOVE your voice. This song is one of your greatest!

[burnieinc]

[treehamallama]

I wish i had a family like yours. Beautiful.

[bilgerburg]

Really fantastic! Mesmerizing! I can't stop watching this! Beautiful song..

[mondostar]

Such a beautiful and heartfelt song. I am in total awe of your talent. I've been playing guitar and singing for a little while now - you are a real inspiration to me

[Jorydin666]

OMG WONDERLAND!!! XDD I loved that rollercoster...sept the first time I was on it so old fat person was beside me on the right and we were in the middle and when it whent to stop we were kinda leaning to the left and poor me got REALLY squished ....and It hurt ..NEVER SIT NEXT TO FAT OLD PEOPLE ON RIDES

[kbarisaxchick09]

your relationship with your sister must be great in order to write a song just about her. amazing.. i want to do something like that.. i just wish i had a sister :D keep it up! :D

[riojass]

That was sweet of you.

[GDRonin]

it's beautiful song is great

[blong81191]

beautiful song

[festivalpreview]

Nice video. Very well put together and great song.

[TheTwoFunnyThree]

wow great! You are amazing!!! I love you.

[kalindoscopy]

this is your best song.

[kalindoscopy]

also..'Nature whispered the deepest of life to you/stretching your site'

is that a typo for 'side' and are you referencing Kafka? at the end of Metamorphoses?

Or is 'site' some kind of stretched euphemism i shouldn't be asking about...

[gwest100]

OUTSTANDING! You have honored your sister Melissa quite nicely. She must be as proud of you as you are of her. (Guitar work on this is really tight. The vocal, as usual for you, is amazing.)

HOOYAH!

Regards,

GMGCM West

[JacobLikesMusic]

Wow, this is a really nice song!

And one of the better homemade music videos I've seen too.

Don't be put down by negative comments that you're bound get when you got featured, there are a lot of people with too much time on their hands that like to bash and flame others.

[benjmyn]

this was lovely

by far your best.

[AnimeSilentDreamer]

omg i wish i had a sister like you!

[meldollrox]

Hi, I want to say to you that i like this vid! It is Amazing!

I've seen another amazing vid today:

youtube. com/watch?v=Nh2E5OEQVZA

I think you will like this video also very much! Let's share all video's we like!

Let me know if you liked the video and tell me about other nice video's!

[Tryd0729]

nice rhythm on the guitar!

[howardoh]

Your song is so sweet. Makes me wish I had an awesome little sister too! Or an awesome older sister to sing songs for me...

[once1nabluem00n]

Beautiful. Gorgeous voice, melody and lyrics. Great work :)

[dreaminglad]

great video

[KristieFlamingo]

very sweet

[AlexRamses]

nice vid and nice song, thanx for the chord on the lakes of canada.

[she4me]

Those are mostly open chord fingerings but you're capoed at the first fret so the actual root notes are different. Eb would be the first chord

[onoringo]

"nine to five monster...detailing the sun", very nice. that guitar or what not at ~:48 was nice as well.

[Anonandon]

You're making my subscriptions more cluttered...

[kellel01]

That is the most awesome song. Do you have the tab for it?

[ningyoko]

It's an original~meaning it's simple like most of my songs, there's a little bit more to it, but the basics are:

Verse: F A C G D A C .. crud, I play it different every time, I'll try to play it out tomorrow morning and message you the chords, heh ^_^

[hesabeauty]

that was awesome, the song, the video ... sweet!

[Rh1no1]

I like your voice a lot. I especially like and prefer your slower songs. They showcase your voice very nicely.

^5 :)

[geismarh]

Since the first time I saw ur video I had that felling when someone reminds u of someone else but you don't know who. Until I saw "miss potter" yesterday and realize who: emily watson

[Muzik4all]

Very Cool Stuff! Luv it.

Don't forget to stop by and check out my videos.

Keep up the great work!

Pete :)

[she4me]

...and a sprinkling of pixie dust.

[she4me]

:-)

[ningyoko]

he he ^_^

[ReinaDelCid]

Nice song! In a way, you sound like a mix between Alison Krauss and Ani DiFranco...a great place to be. Check out my original song "Chance" if you have time - maybe you'd enjoy it.

[ningyoko]

That. Is. VERY. cool ^_^ Thanks a lot, I do like Ani, but for sure want to be softer and sweeter like Alison Krauss. Thanks for making my day.

Oh, and I checked out your song "Chance." My comment was confusing, so if you don't understand anything I wrote on your page, know that my main meaning was: You're such a great song writer!

[she4me]

your hair style and dress appear traditional european of some sort yet you speak with an american accent. mind sharing your ancestry?

[ningyoko]

I'm more than 1/2 Irish, then there's a sprinkling of German, a pinch of Native American, and a teensy smidgen of French, Swedish, Polish and possibly other areas of Europe. ^_^

[AiKoArioka]

Very nice song and voice

[JessicaJohnsonDotNet]

Very nice voice and song!

[Shyamen]

You have a wonderful voices. It's one of a kind :)

I want to ask you something. I've just made a new group called 'Women with a voice'. It's especially for women with lovely voices from all around the world who want to share their beautiful voices with the whole world. Join if you like!

[Phanta6]

I love this video, the music, the pictures, beautifull...

[Helianthusje]

[Musicofheart]

[cjk10000]

You'd do much better singing in a Death Metal band

[natelion]

[uliduli]

Thats a very nice song^^.

[hydronian]

that was beautiful, you have a very sweet soul

[tokealt]

Brilliant camera work. Love the night time shots--especially with the moon in the background! (Although it looks the same as a street light with the compression) PLZ come out with a CD! Or sell on iTunes!

[shalba1]

heyy.. I love the music, and the video. Looks to me as if you'll really "go someplace"!

[cheerchik3012]

[squids5]
