BAND MAID "Forward" Photo Collage

Описание: Here is another track off that dreaded unmentionable album, MAID in JAPAN :p . This is my first “Ballad-ey” song and frankly, I was a little nervous about doing it. I am used to fast moving music and quick cut photo editing. I wasn’t really sure how this would turn out. In the end, the slower pace lends itself to dwelling on each photo a fraction of a second longer and as the music indicates, is quite relaxing.

This was a special request by someone I believe to be one of my very first subs - Italo Calvino. He always comments, he asked nicely, and waited patiently through all the October birthday mayhem :p … so here is his collage.

This song is not "impossible" to find ... there are 3 or 4 reaction videos here on YT. There is a much rarer acoustic version from 2014 floating around. I have it and offered it to Italo, but he wisely chose the studio version. The audio quality of the live acoustic is a little questionable so it is probably a good thing ;) . Anyway, this is probably not a song you would find, unless you were looking for it sadly.

This is the first time I have recommended this, but if you can, try to watch this full screen. It adds something to the experience unlike some of the harder rock collages.

Let me know what you think of this slower stuff in the comments and maybe we will do more of it. If you like it, thank Italo. If you don’t, you can blame me 😉 .

Hand drawn artwork used for thumbnail and between timestamp @0:27 and 0:33 graciously contributed by Ryan Mear – Artist, musician, YouTuber, and all-around good guy ... please check out his channel and give him a like and subscribe:
