      8:20 might just be because of the theme of the video (and maybe even the timbre of the piano?) but when you were talking about that one chord i couldnt help but describe the sound of it as really cold and frosty!

    When I first saw the music video, I found this absolutely astonishing, but now, it’s no wonder it‘s so awesome (which doesn’t even come close to what it actually is). Also, the way you casually make multiple songs in one video around the whole thing. This is perhaps the best video I’ve ever seen!

    That was simply the most beautiful thing I've ever heard you make Andrew. The lyrics, the music, the story and the stunning imagery of nature truly encapsulated everything you meant for the listener to feel. This might be one of my favourite songs for a while now. Thank you Andrew

    the insignificance and gratitude you were feeling comes from feeling an interconnectedness with the land. The land is magical that way. This is the way of the indigenous communities throughout North America and it makes me happy to hear you express it. As long as you can feel that, there is hope that our souls will one day be able to be comfortable roaming this Earth again. Appreciate you Andrew!

    Andrew, this is the first I've heard of you, thanks to a link from a fellow follower of Kina Grannis.
    This is, by far, the best "Story of" and "Making of" video I've ever seen. The whole is overwhelming. Had me in tears.
    Yes, I'll go back and listen to the song without the video. But not yet. Not this week. I want to soak in what you've created here.
    The video production values are off the chart. Every tiny, minuscule, itty-bitty bit works. Even the "talking head" did well. The song is certainly special, but this presentation of it is like, well, a colorful egg in the center of a most beautiful Easter basket.
    So many thanks!

    Love the vid. PSA: for those listening to the music as part of the overall experience (hopefully everyone is) YOU HAVE GOT TO EXPERIENCE IT ON A PROPER SET UP! The dog sled song was awesome, killing it.
    Part of the reason I really like this channel and other music production channels, is the attention to upload and sample quality. Sounds awesome on a full home theater system in 2.1 or studio setup/hifi stereo.
    Andrew making RUclips sound good.
    P. S. Living in Alaska, I relate to your experiences in Canada. We also have a lake Louise! I wish everyone in the world could experience it at least once!

    Andrew, i think this might have finally displaced Never as my favourite thing you’ve written. everything about the process of how this was written, how it evolved, how everything just serendipitously lined up to lead to the finished song *recorded on the dang lake itself* is just so tremendous. i’m a long-time lover of Lake Louise myself, and it’s been a place full of really special memories every time i’ve been there. this song really captured it on a pretty mind-bogglingly complete level. thanks for sharing this with all of us. you’ve made something here that’s not just musically significant, i believe as a Canadian that it’s *nationally* significant as a piece of truly Canadian art.

    I've been binging your videos for a while. It inspired me to install a DAW i bought a year ago, and after a 10+ year hiatus, I'm back to making music. My skill level has already surpassed where I was when I stopped, largely due to the things I've learned watching your videos. Thank you for making this series, and for being in inspiration.

The idea for the song was brilliant and I also like that you made this BTS video, I really enjoyed it. I don't know if you also did the editing, but whoever edited this video made truly amazing job. I really miss more high quality content on RUclips (don't watch my videos, lol 😂) and this is something that I really enjoyed.
