      50 years later, when the world is torn to shreds by war and famine, a ragged MacBook Air dimly hums to life. On the dim-lit screen was a video on a long-forgotten website. Guess what the video is.

    I always love "Behind the Music" features to see where my favorite artists came from, and this one's no different! It's nice to get a glimpse of another's past - and this is true for my own friends as well (whom I haven't known since we were kids). So, yeah, I love these kinds of videos, and also LindseyTime, when we just see the band hanging out, making each other Valentine's Day cards or buying ugly sweaters, lol! This is the good stuff!

    Watching your videos, Lindsey, has been such an inspiration and motivator to me and probably many others. I've always been the silly type but never really showed that side of me to others because I thought it wasn't "cool" but ever since I started watching your videos and listening to your music. I want to be myself more, I want to continue silly projects of mine because they're fun. Keep doing what you're doing Lindsey, you're such an amazing person! Hope to see you in the Midwest soon again!

    It takes real courage to do something like this, let alone put it up on youtube when you are clearly embarrassed about it.

Wherever you've come from, and wherever you go -- I'll always be your biggest fan.

      That fact has been in so many other interviews (look 'em up), she probably didn't see a need to mention it here; she's said that she started taking violin lessons at age 6 (wanted dance back then also but her parents couldn't afford both).

    It doesn't really matter if there are people who don't like those videos, what matters is that you and your friends had a blast, and enjoyed making them. I sure like them. It tells us part of your story which is very interesting. Keep on rocking that violin and with your fantastic moves Lindsay, and if you have any other videos you edited when younger there are many of us, your fans, that would love to watch them.

    Lindsey, what it shows is..
    If you like what you're doing, keep on doing it, and even things that doesn't work as good as intended, still makes you better at it (or at planning it)
    and that's a perfectly good reason to post this vid.
    -and it should inspire other people to just keep on trying the same even if it's technically "crappy"..
    Just keep on doing what you enjoy doing :)
