I've been in love with this since the day the original came out. 10 years later at 5am & I still randomly watch this video. I love the audio and design, I always wanted to go into a profession that would allow me to have this type of creativity and it's the first piece of inspiration that's been stagnant in my mind. I hope to still be watching this when I'm well into old age, I found this when I was 13 years old and nothing has ever compared to how this makes me feel.
The person who showed me this video is now the person I'm going to marry. The Song and the drawing definitely is a big meaning to me. We both liked each other but we both didn't know until we drew together and expressed our feelings through pictures.
This... this is the reason why I started animating. The reason why I fully formed my desire and ambition to become an animator... and the reason why I studied it at university. I can't explain how much gratitude I have for both Mike Inel, and this original with that beloved song. Ahh... so many memories..I'll always love this.
daniel chung The original video was removed from the RUclips due to copyright issues. The author ended up re-uploading a different version with the music removed. I find the video isn't as powerful without the music.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is the original upload just on another channel (if I remember it correctly). For awhile it was gone. Honestly I'm surprised this hasn't been removed.
This is the video that first introduced me to Mike Inel... It was amazing then and it's still amazing today.I'm so glad someone has it with the original music.
Finally a "Draw With Me" video with the original song and animation THAT WORKS. I liked the ending sound effects, although I preferred the silence. Either way, really happy I found this.
I don't remember how long ago I first saw this video, but it tore me apart. It's been in my watchlist for years, and I always dreaded watching it again. But now that I've graduated high-school and been working for 8+ years, it doesn't seem as bad as I remember.
the first time i watched this film i cried quiet, small tears because it is sad.now i have a boyfriend, but he is the other side of the world and i cannot get to him..i would do anything for him and him me, but he is unreachable. we have our own glass between us which is unbreakable. Now i watch this video and i cry harder then before because now this video has such a bigger and more meaningful meaning to it, it affects me and my boyfriend, and so many others directly..it tells our life stories.
My friend sent me this and it makes me cry every time I watch it. Because he's changed so much in such a short amount of time. We used to kind of be like that.
For all of you freaking out because she cut off her arm. For fucks sake its all a metaphor. This is a perfect way to show how in a relationship there can be huge barriers. More like how if two people love each other but can't be together for whatever reason. But tried to make it work anyway but when that happened ended up taking away all they had in the first place. And the arm is to show how much she would be willing to sacrifice for them to be happy. You people need to grow the fuck up. This animation is so beautiful it makes me emotional because I am going through this exact thing.
I had one person in mind when I first saw this forever ago and it tore me up. He's still who comes to mind all these years later and it still fucks me up! 😭😭😭
this video in all honesty made me think about everything that's went on in my life; but mainly how my ex and I used to draw together whenever we were at lunch in school. Seeing this video makes me think back to how much I miss him after we broke up, and even more now that he moved across the country. I regret it so much.. and this video means so much to me. You guys have no idea how much this video reflected us
If this video gets taken down, or the music taken off, I will officially lose all respect for RUclips. Every video I find of this is either not the right song, or a dub version. Kudos for putting this up, this has gotta be the best video w/music ever, and probably the only vid that actually brang a tear to my eye. Once again, Kudos :)
I always cry every time I see this because it reminds me so much of my bf. He's overseas right now, and even though I can't physically hold him, I still love him. And I'd still give anything for him . I love you Stefan.
"I am strong I am strong. I will not cry!" - 2 and a half minutes later - -Bawling his eyes out- "DAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!"
I've listened to the song out of tab but I've never watched 'till today. It almost made me cry but I love the song. I thank my Danish friend for sending me this link...
Funny how when you put a video like this, which relates to your life in many ways, and you add a wonderful song like this to it, it can bring a man to tears. Kudos for posting this video sinblesser, this video is, and always will be somewhere in my heart
I'm feeling like you all who suffer seeing this video. But remember that distance for love is like wind on a fire. It extinguishes a weak fire. It strenghtens a strong fire. If you truly believe in your love, don't be afraid of this wall. This wall is also your way to demonstrate that you both are strong. And someday, someway... you will pass it, just believe in it.
The first time I spent the day with my Girlfriend, who lives in Sweden, (whereas I live in England), it was in Colchester and she had come over for a school trip. I had known her online, and I went up to visit her. I instantly fell in love and we watched this on repeat, knowing forever (or at least for the near future) we'd be stuck doing the same thing these two did. It's 1 year and 1/2 later and we're still doing it. Love is tricky but also so rewarding.
honestly this is one of the few reasons im happy im the same race as the creator of this video and the unfinished game for this video, thanks so much mike inel for touching so many peoples lives ^_^
love this video. The drama fits perfectly with the music and it is so romantic. and for those who disliked this video, you must either not understand this video or are simply too stupid to realize the morale this story entails....
I can't believe the ending, it is so good. She cuts her own arm off to give to him, which is why at he end she is covered up. The artist did an amazing song with this.
YES OMG! cherish... i was going a bit nuts when i heard most of them got removed plus! the update... this song fits with the clip .. and its beautiful..
Cried so much at this.. relates to me and my boyfriend so much as he lives away from me in America, we would do anything for eachother, we have an unbreakable glass between us and I hate it.... This makes me cry so much knowing that our relationship is like this but I cant get to him and he cant get to me unfortunately... this has made me realise that what I thought we had, there is a bigger story to our relationship and its made it more meaningful to me
this is a wonderful clip. i shows how badly two people want to be together but can not. They try desperatly to get to one another and yet it fails. But the girl sacrafices one of her arms to help the boy be with her again.
Wow, this video is heart wrenching and made me realize the actual pain of a long distance relationship. I'm in one, see people and friends around me happy with their boyfriends and girlfriends and I'm actually jealous of some of my exes from being in physical relationships too. Yes, it's petty, but it's a painful thing to go through at times. Despite that, I consider myself lucky because I'm with the greatest person ever and there is always hope and planning of actually meeting.
***** Well,I am not knowledgeble in music videos to make a review, but I am not into Michael Jackson and I have a suspicion his music videos selling point is Michael Jackson himself wich not nesesserly makes good music video.

I know exactly what you mean
same here
100%
Came back after years. This still breaks my heart. Love it!
the original music makes the video so much more powerful...
+zvic2 It does doesn't it. =]
I think this was how I found out about Otsuka Ai first. Then other songs she did for dramas and such. But I think this was first. ❤️
Those 2 tiny pieces of chalk last forever.
Oh gosh... it's still here,.. After all these years coming back to this is breaking my heart. Still loving the concept of this
indeed ;(
The person who showed me this video is now the person I'm going to marry. The Song and the drawing definitely is a big meaning to me. We both liked each other but we both didn't know until we drew together and expressed our feelings through pictures.
I'm actually getting depressed again...
Those drawings, that music, and "she" are the facts which still keeps me alive on this godforsaken place...
Don't be depressed; be glad!
This... this is the reason why I started animating. The reason why I fully formed my desire and ambition to become an animator... and the reason why I studied it at university. I can't explain how much gratitude I have for both Mike Inel, and this original with that beloved song. Ahh... so many memories..I'll always love this.
THATS THE ORIGINAL
daniel chung Haha, it's very close to the original. I spliced it together with the original music cause I couldn't find the original one myself.
daniel chung The original video was removed from the RUclips due to copyright issues. The author ended up re-uploading a different version with the music removed. I find the video isn't as powerful without the music.
+JunPatch The original one is still up, just copyrighted. This is "close" to the original. haha.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is the original upload just on another channel (if I remember it correctly). For awhile it was gone. Honestly I'm surprised this hasn't been removed.
what was the name of the music that was removed?
This is the video that first introduced me to Mike Inel... It was amazing then and it's still amazing today.I'm so glad someone has it with the original music.
+kirmer13 d(￣◇￣)b
Finally a "Draw With Me" video with the original song and animation THAT WORKS. I liked the ending sound effects, although I preferred the silence. Either way, really happy I found this.
This animation still hits the feels. So emotional so powerful yet. I wish this was a series. There's so much charm to this that makes me tear up.
I remember seeing this on Deviantart and it still makes me cry my heart out! TT3TT it's so well done that it's just too good!
I used to hear this in memory of gaiaonline
I always come back to this. (Even after over 10 years). It's so beautiful
no words are spoken ... n still makes you cry ... and no matter how many times i see this i tear up
+wrickiw Don't cry, be happy. =]
I don't remember how long ago I first saw this video, but it tore me apart. It's been in my watchlist for years, and I always dreaded watching it again.
But now that I've graduated high-school and been working for 8+ years, it doesn't seem as bad as I remember.
Can't stop crying and I don't know why TT-TT..the feels are overflowing !
+CottonFairy TOOO MUUUCH FEEEELS
Never thought I'd come across this forgotten video again in my life, I am BLESSED!
I've watched this dozens of times and it still gives me goose bumps >.>
i always get the feels when watching this TwT
+erayox Goose bumps? That scary ehhh.
Seriously once of my favorite animations. Glad you got original music too.
+mdenks d(>_･ )
the first time i watched this film i cried quiet, small tears because it is sad.now i have a boyfriend, but he is the other side of the world and i cannot get to him..i would do anything for him and him me, but he is unreachable. we have our own glass between us which is unbreakable.

The part that I cry the most is when he write "I can't anymore" I break down completely.
This original video with the music is everything ❤😢
this is my favourite video on youtube. it makes me so calm. the song is also my favourite song.. Ai Otsuka - Cherish.. I love this video:)
Amg this video still makes me emotional. Its so sweet...
My friend sent me this and it makes me cry every time I watch it. Because he's changed so much in such a short amount of time. We used to kind of be like that.
Simply beautiful - in every way.
Not even going to deny it. I bawled. Still crying. Watching it again.
Man.. it's been years since I've seen this. Still tugs on the heart strings a bit.
For all of you freaking out because she cut off her arm. For fucks sake its all a metaphor. This is a perfect way to show how in a relationship there can be huge barriers.

+bubbles squeak shit
+bubbles squeak o.o
I had one person in mind when I first saw this forever ago and it tore me up. He's still who comes to mind all these years later and it still fucks me up! 😭😭😭
every single time I watch it I just can't stop crying...
I still have to fight tears when I see this video. It's so sad, and romantic at the same time. I just can't get enough of it.
I remember listening to this about 1-2 years ago, before they removed the audio of Mikeinel video, now I found this :)
I'm crying like a baby right now! Every time I watch this video I cry!! I love this video!!!
This vid always makes me cry... i love it very much... It shows even if you are separated, you can always care for each other....
this video in all honesty made me think about everything that's went on in my life; but mainly how my ex and I used to draw together whenever we were at lunch in school.

Art is a way of life, it's a life alone.
This movie made me cry, Mike is amazing, I love all his arts!
i watch this at least 1 a year and every time i always wanna cry!
This is one of the most amazing conveyances of love you will ever see.
I cried to it 20 years ago and I still do it today..I hate invisible barriers, I still think about her even if I know it's not possible to be together
thank you soooooo much for uploading the original one, i was so sad when they took it off
The feels man.....THE FEELZ
+AGT007 Gosh darn it the feeeeeels
... I cant even mention how thankful I am someone finally posted this again... thank you
If this video gets taken down, or the music taken off, I will officially lose all respect for RUclips. Every video I find of this is either not the right song, or a dub version. Kudos for putting this up, this has gotta be the best video w/music ever, and probably the only vid that actually brang a tear to my eye. Once again, Kudos :)
It just came back to me right now as i was laying in my bed how much I missed this Video.
+Miguel Sanchez (o^-’)b
Miguel Sanchez me too! Literally just sitting here like "hm remember that one video awhile ago... " and here I am
I always cry every time I see this because it reminds me so much of my bf. He's overseas right now, and even though I can't physically hold him, I still love him. And I'd still give anything for him . I love you Stefan.
I've watched this so many times and I still tear up and shiver when he breaks the glass.
Here I am, once again. Still crying whenever i see this 😅
I miss him..
I think of him every day..
And everytime I watch this video..
I'm sorry..
LORD PRAISE YOU .
i've been looking for the original soundtrack for ages with this video.
this is so cute and sweet but sad from beginning to end T^T a masterpiece a thousand times over
+Shawn Smith Haha, there are many masterpieces, this is probably just one in a thousand. =]
"I am strong I am strong. I will not cry!"
- 2 and a half minutes later -
-Bawling his eyes out- "DAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!"
wow! it's so touching. I cried the first time I watched this, and I'm not a softy. Mike Inel is great!

Why is this so cool? They are both Pretty and Handsome even their cartoons.
Such a beautiful video.

Funny how when you put a video like this, which relates to your life in many ways, and you add a wonderful song like this to it, it can bring a man to tears. Kudos for posting this video sinblesser, this video is, and always will be somewhere in my heart

What it's like to be in the military, far off in the distance from the one you love, with only a glass monitor to talk with them through.
:(
I cry with this song... Is so beautiful...
It make me cry 15 years ago and after all it make me cry now
This video makes me cry everytime. The story of my life, *sigh*.
finally! one wth the orignal song!!!
The first time I spent the day with my Girlfriend, who lives in Sweden, (whereas I live in England), it was in Colchester and she had come over for a school trip. I had known her online, and I went up to visit her. I instantly fell in love and we watched this on repeat, knowing forever (or at least for the near future) we'd be stuck doing the same thing these two did. It's 1 year and 1/2 later and we're still doing it. Love is tricky but also so rewarding.
I know he's a kid and all, but is so cool how he does whatever he can to be with the one he loves. Like a real man.

Best music video I've ever seen.
+B'ars NI Ehhhhhh, you've probably seen better ones, maybe Michael Jackson music video in his prime. hahahha!
***** Well,I am not knowledgeble in music videos to make a review, but I am not into Michael Jackson and I have a suspicion his music videos selling point is Michael Jackson himself wich not nesesserly makes good music video.
OMG?! I love this video!! I've been looking for this but finally found it yay!! I hope it doesnt get take down :( cuz its actually really popular now.
Thats.... Thats some Pure LOVE!
This is one of the few things that makes me cry. :) It's beautiful.
