That's great! It's probably gotten more views from Japan since the song is hot there right now.

Thanks for the great news. I'm impressed.

I love the video. I'm glad that so many others love it too. Elliott did a great job of acting, IMO. Of course, I love the song too. For such a small budget and such limited time, that director did an amazing job.

Thanks Rainy. I'm so proud of Elliott and all he has accomplished with limited means and an independent label. This song has had an amazing impact on so many people. :elliottelliott:

Wow!

I can say in retrospect that the song's continuing interest doesn't surprise me, but frankly I never would have imagined the lasting impact of the song.
Just goes to show that you never really can tell which song from an album will capture the imagination of an audience. It's moving on to classic status! and of course Elliott's emphatic vocals have everything to do with it.

I think you got that exactly right, tulee!

...each time I hear the song it's like hearing it for the first time. Most records have an attention rate for me of barely ONE listen before I get tired of it.

Thanks, it's my little declaration of fact, lol, after all the contestants that have come before and after.

In noticing your darling avatar, if you were to add some brown coloring to his head and stand his ears straight up, you would have my dog....a long haired chihuahua/ terrier mix. They could be siblings.

I have always loved this video. I tried to analyse what makes it so appealing (other than Elliott's voice, of course) and I've come to the conclusion that the director knew his stuff. He went back and forth between the gritty, cool reality of the apartment , the back street, the black and white segment and then interspersed it with that colorful microphone scene with the warm red background and finally, that gorgeous sunset lit beach. Elliott's acting ability and the lyrics of the song are what really bring it all together. Whew! Maybe I should be teaching a class in video making. LOL! I read somewhere they shot it all in one day on a low budget. So much for money making the difference. All I have left to say is....:ilikeit:
