[iJamsFilms]

[jacobcollins16]

lmao idk how else to explain this vid other then bad ass haha I love it super inspiring

[aswerkes]

WOW! Awesome!

[MrLordsongblade]

If you don't sell seventeen million copies of your first album I will lose all faith in humanity. Every video I've watched so far has just taken me aback. Your poetic ability just astounds me. The video quality is amazing as well you did a great job recording and editing. Come payday I will be purchasing your EP. Thank you for making music. you are amazing. :)

[purewaters1000]

man do the world a favor, become a famous musician! your songs have such great meanings and i will be first in line for your album. i promise you that

[Hitaginini]

what a beautiful voice!!! making me dream every time I hear you singing this...just send me your skype=)

[MrNothingSpecial]

I just spent several hours perusing thru unsigned artists, and original songs... the past hour has been listening to your original songs.... I love the simplicity of just the acoustic guitar and you... I am one who prefers to listen to people with a uniqueness to their voice...... You... are definitely one of those people... I am subscribing... and hope to hear more original songs from you! Keep it up, and always remember your roots! ;)

[courtneygirl88]

My lil sis sent this to me. I was told I may have Cancer and she felt like she should sent this to me and I cried listening to it cuz she is an amazing little sister to go find this song for me... Thanks for making this song

[Thunderhead472]

You are awesome! I am a songwriter too. I am thinking of starting my own show soon.

[csandeepk]

Amazing mixing, editing and compilation! thank you very much for sharing such a nice work.

[rd2ed]

I do love this beautiful song....I think it will become a classic. It already is for me.....

[damselANDTHEdaemon]

Girl, you're fuckin awesome.

[AmyLeerae]

I came back to this song after a theater class one day and realized it reminds me of the play Antigone. (You're an English major from what I recall so I trust you'd know what I'm talking about? I don't know if that's required material for that major,,,, but from what I gather from Library Girl you might have read it?) ^_^

[Sosthene57]

you have probably check how many people have dowloaded your song. Hum... i don't have download your song, simply because I... I am lazy. and i prefer to wtch the video.

[rodgetaylorjnr]

@Sosthene57 what kind of a comment is that ????

[Sosthene57]

@rodgetaylorjnr it's just one more stupid comment that I write every day on Youtube with my great english. LOL

[TallDream]

WOW!!! i love how you did like slmost everything by your self... showing it too... all i have to say is WOW.... i think its your best work yet!!

[Soaker888]

One of your best. Great composition with chrod progression. Youl could branch out your music a bit more by studying some basic jazz compositions to accent your songs a bit more (though this one tended to have a newish/better feel). But then again, if you get a recording contract, your producers will give you all the musical suggestions you care not to hear. Been subscribing for about 3-1/2 years or more now. Well done Reina.

[LILYHALLTV]

Wow!! You have fantastic voice! Great tone! Great writing!!! I want this song on my IPOD!!

[Xyeho]

Your Pretty and Sing Really Great!

[MusicByMartin]

Going a little Gospel these days, huh? I like it!

[HelmetVanga]

not bad at all..with the thing shaking and baking it sound bit like brazilian samba. The singer obviously has a good pitch. If I was the singer I would form a killer rock band with amazing bassist and tour..The accoustic guitar has little punch for today's demand. Audiences want to be rock and the stage needs to be rip apart..bit to subtle and innocent and sensitive. Rock is the way to go since Michael is no longer here and Disco is dead.

[Pyrocrashe]

good song, keep it up

[rd2ed]

This video is so neat on several aspects and I just love the harmony…..

[Yamikiri]

When will Come Back Over be up for Download?

[ABRogers]

Love.

[MelissaSevern]

Reina, I just LOVE you. Your music is so honest and open. <3

[rickyd0821]

Your amazing. :)

[PlatypusPlunger]

wow this song made this sister cry. bless you.

[mommyat19]

a new one to get stuck in my head :D love it and shared it on facebook :D

[Andersgbg]

Nicely done. I like how you put it all together. :)

[TheSkyhawk40]

I like your creativity...

[headhippomusic]

so glad to have stumbled upon this, really enjoyed this, a lot

[DannyLimardi]

Awesome song, wonderful voice, and great guitar playing. I think I'm in love <3

[Sarrasari]

This song makes me think of my own sister. I left her and my family to move in with my dad, and she sees it as betrayal... I know I hurt her when I left, but she wont talk to me, so I can't apologize. It's been over two years since I talked to her like a sister, since then it's insults and threats. I miss her, and I wish she knew that. I want so much to put this song up on her facebook wall >.> And apologize for hurting her...

Excellent performance. I like how you can play them maraccas with your feet. SPLENDIIID!!!

grettings from Chile.

[annspade]

NIIIIICCCCE!!! I loved this. Thank you so much for the free download! I totally did and listening to it as I type. :)

[rd2ed]

I have come to recognize that your "a bit" and my "a bit" have a different dimensional time interval value, and are diverging with each day that passes…..no pressure ;).

[H2N2Productions]

Reina, I know you must be sick of hearing it.. but your music is fabulous. Your adorable to watch on camera, and a joy to hear sing. Thankyou for sharing your voice with us.

[jaywardmusic]

Nice! The hand percussion was a nice musical and visual touch! It's cool to take the "recorded right into the computer camera" video and do something more interesting with it If you have time, check out the video for my song "Somewhere" I did a similar thing.

[dragonspirit1185]

I LOVE MEAT!!!!

[dragonspirit1185]

wow what an amazing voice. this is coming from a metal vocalist and an avid brutal metal fan haha. love this song and I'm definently gonna listen to all your other stuff. great job!!

[fezzpiggy]

omg i love this song. ^_^

[rd2ed]

2. In the third try she had it all together and her voice and face changed to that loving sound and look we all admire. The neat thing is that she could have removed the second try and none of us would have been the wiser…..but that is our Reina.....

[rd2ed]

1. Outside of this beautiful song and performance, stands one of the other neat things about Reina as shown in this video with the three communication attempts. The first was telling us that she wrote this song last summer but cut it short, I feel mainly because she didn't give herself enough time to recover from the channeled feelings of her lyrics. The second try apologized for the awkward cut due to rambling which in turn was also cut short....for probably the same reason ;).

[WolfgangCloud]

I can't wait until you make an album! I am willing and ready to buy a CD of your originals with my paypal account!

[milo126]

One of my new favorite songs. Heard it for the first time just now. Finally I can have something handy to show my friends when they ask me what the hell a reina del cid is. Freaking beautifully quirky, singer/songwriter, you. Keep it up.

[ExiledMartian]

How the heck do I favorite this more than one time.. someone please tell me.. I must.. I thought Mr Pinata was the pinnacle of music and then this befalls me..

Truly completely love your music.. I hope you get rich/famous, or wherever you want to be.

[serhicks]

Another Gem!

[Sosthene57]

i saw your videos of your concert on facebook and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of your band. this is a new step for you. I'm really happy for you, reina.

[Sosthene57]

your words are so beautiful

[Sosthene57]

I like you

[perplunk]

Great song w/ video and thanks for making it downloadable for free.

[JackEvansMusic]

This is probably my favorite YouTube original I've ever seen. Such a great feel to it, love the lyrics too.

[videofan77]

you remind me so much of one of my fave actresses Ellen Page <3

[dankoch2010]

This is good.

[NLScottyDees]

the clap at 2:03 is great.. awesome job

[NLScottyDees]

I love this song. Great Job.

[mg2sk8]

[tremonti5]

Your songs are absolutely great! Why don't you have a record deal? Damn, this kind of talent deserves attention!

[tagurit11]

You are awesome! Please cut a record, or CD that is. I will purchase it like many others would. Thank you for the free download. I hope and wish you much success!

[JerricaLynn2013]

you're amazing :)))

[Quorxnog]

I'm really curious about the chords to this song. I think I hear a IV - iv - I cadence in there, but I'm not sure. Would you mind sharing them?

[Quorxnog]

@Quorxnog Wait, I think I figured it out: B - G#m - E - Em

[kennie0058]

You should of got the record deal not that stupid Rebecca Black chick

[joezjoezjoez1]

[lodenrogue]

Great songwriter and singer. Keep it up. I'm starting to do some music production. Let me know if you would like to work together at some point.

[rd2ed]

After watching and listening to this video….I cannot imagine anyone not being radically impressed by Reina's many obvious talents. There is also a bonus….her beauteous self….

[thevoiceofinsanity1]

[TheTardcore]

[shepherdschapelDOTco]

@TheTardcore Somebody musta really pissed her off, to put that in the lyrics, eh?

[shepherdschapelDOTco]

A mindblast of endos!!

[wonderlandink]

Such a big fan of your writing. Your play on words to rhyme is always great! you create such beautiful melodies. :)

Just realized i've been a fan for years now and have your songs in my itunes and occasionally get get asked who you are when you pop on through my speakers ("oh that a cool artist on youtube")

[girlontheverge104]

Thanks for this song. It is so great, and I have downloaded it, and it's on repeat on my Ipod.... I actually have been following your stuff for a while. That sounds creepy. but it Started with "Swallowed in the Sea" yyyearrsss ago....Anyway, im a fan. Keep it up :)

[shepherdschapelDOTco]

[shepherdschapelDOTco]

Dont worry beautiful! All your "newish" songs eventually grow on us! Thanks for the mp3. This oughtta shut me up for a bit! ;D

[pkmusicproject]

Kickin ass, your Beautiful!

[morid0]

Always enjoy your songs! u got a lot of talent keep it up :)

[SkyBaird]

Your Pretty amazing, Keep it up. Watched every video so far... And every one is right, this song kinda has the whole hunger games vibe to it.

[mrratchild]

Reina : What greater tribute could you pay to ' The Hunger Games ' than to sing

Rue's Lullaby (Kiss the Rain) .

Poor Little Rue. District 11. 12 years old.... R.I.P.

[alyssaCorynn]

This song is amazing :)

I listen to it all the time!

[Makeiri]

I love this song!

Made me think of Katniss and Prim, from the Hunger Game books.

Thank you for sharing your talent Reina <3

[KyranKandosa2]

@Makeiri I see what you mean with K and P. The ending for the 3rd one left me kinda pissed, though.

[Makeiri]

@KyranKandosa2 I just felt depressed for a while XD

[ReinaDelCid]

@Makeiri Thanks! I normally don't do YA, but I absolutely adore those books.

[Makeiri]

@ReinaDelCid I really enjoyed reading them! Awesome to know you read them too!! :D Once again, thank you for sharing your awesome music with the world :)

[missmichaela525]

@ReinaDelCid makes me think of the book My Sister's Keeper.

[AndysOriginalSongs]

OMG Reina, so lovely, so talented, so needed...Andy:)

[Brandtstifter1]

Gut gemacht!

Brandtstifter

[DelCidViCiOS]

And as always a wonderful introduction and a nice song with lyrics SUNG BY A BEAUTY

[iheartturdallthetime]

[bozodclown98]

You raised the bar sister.

[bozodclown98]

some things can't be settled with the other cheek, wow.

[jdrut]

Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you

[Passionatelifeliver]

gotta love it. You sound good enough that close doesn't matter!

[deschner]

When I listen to Sister Don't Cry, I automatically think of the song, Sisters are Doing for Themselves. (Martin)

[rd2ed]

Your voice harmony in this song is so neat too listen to. I have this mp3 and the "Stairwell" mp3 looped on media-player and I listen while not doing critical work….thank you for the enjoyment Reina….

[vgerra]

Reina, "Thank you for the Music".

Did I get a hint? When I played this on Foobar, it showed track 3, does that mean track 3 on a new CD? Also, is that Tubagirl 222 backing you with the harmonies? Oh, re; my verdict on the song, it's a definite grower.

[hadtothinkofsomethin]

Hey Reina, where's your video cover of Coldplay's swallowed in the sea? can't find it anymore and now I am sad :'(

like your vid's alot. keep it up. x

[earthispoisoned]

Damn You Reina I am a friggin slave to your music...honestly It's playing while I do just about anything on my computer xD

[GregoryLog]

In short, I don't know of too many gangs, or gang members doing good things. That is my 'short' diatribe and I am sticking to it!

No one expected the Spanish Inquistion! I lifted that line from Monty Python

[ibalrit]

I always love watching your videos first. Then I go back and listen again...usually 2-3 times. They gain more meaning the more I listen. I love the way you are able to use words to draw feelings from us, as listeners, to bring us a little closer to you.

Thanks for the video. The free download is a wonderful gift.

I think you would be amazed at the return gifts from your fans if you offered an album for sale. :)

Yes, Reina, you have fans and a following. We love your music! 

[fineanothernameitis]

Great song, I really like it.

[DarkSedna]

I Like it. It kind of sounds like a Joy Williams song at first, then the pace picks up faster and faster. Very interesting.

[tdp1191]

wow! this is so good! inspiring!!

[jleoht]

Realmente bello.. que linda voz!.. saludos desde Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico

[SenorCrushMan]

@jleoht Orale Guanajuato! Guanajuato es el pais de mi Abuelo....con el perdón de la palabra....no hablo Espanol muy bien.....

[onewomanandsomesongs]

OMG, this is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard....such excellent writing and peforming! :)

[Nedemis]

wow....incredible work Reina! :)

[TheKidwonder08]

beautiful

[Lulzartist18]

Very original.. reminds me of Alanis Morissette. Make more music!

[WalkaboutRen]

Opening track to her debut EP….? ;)

[WaffleOfDer]

Another great song! I really love how you included all of the different shots of you playing and singing the different parts, it made it just as good to watch as it was to listen :)

[marcosac07]

muito legal! parabéns.

[profhum]

Dear RDC, in the current issue of TIME, Feb 28, 2011, Thomas K Grose article "I'm With the Band" it's online but don't know if this box accepts links.

You'll see what I mean immediately.

[hounddig]

This girl inspires me. Maybe she sees what a soul destroying freak show the music industry is and likes being free - rock on!!!

[Sosthene57]

unanimously, 545 like for 5 unlike for a video of 10 000 views.

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !

Happy valentines day, may God shine his love on you today.

[AiniReloaded]

[aziamatters]

I love your songs so much! Keep on doing what you do no matter what! You have an amazing voice!!

[KroakinOnaSunday]

I like that she is so close to the camera in this video... She looks cool in a close up.

[ciretose2]

You have a beautiful heart... it comes through in your music and your voice.

[Jlynall]

Very good as always.

[chordstricken]

Some of the most badass West Side Story action going on at 1:50. I love it!

[SenorCrushMan]

@chordstricken Natalie, Rita, and the Sharks would be proud Daddio!

[GregoryLog]

@SenorCrushMan, I know you jest. The word 'gang' has taken on a darker meaning since the the movie 'West Side Story' and our youth. Locally and couple days ago 29 Somalias were arrested in a pre-teen girl prostitution and drug ring. Membership privileges included free sex. A couple days ago 12 headless bodies were hung from a bridge in Peru. Drug gang activity is suspected. I suspect Reina with her intelligence and education to be highly cosmopolitan.

[SenorCrushMan]

@GregoryLog ....and intelligence, education, and cosmopolitan ways are no deterrent to barbarism...in fact many times they can be a convenient excuse for elitism and can lead to evil deeds....even genocide. My apologies to RDC and her fans for taking up WAY to much space on this....

[melissarozel]

this is beautiful! its so kinda 'feel good' too :) thanks for the download !

[zyrixtech]

Amazing Job! How do you mix the voices and guitars?
