despite what many people say here I like the music WITH the original lyrics&singing just fine. I think they do not only suit the prod, but set the mood. Listening to the song on a GOOD stereo the whole thing sends shivers down my spine (in a positive way).

The way the tune is arranged is the key here, there's a feeling of desperation in the voice, the small imperfections clearly enlarge this. To me, it felt as if the singer was a person who realized that she had made some "small decisions" in the past, maybe even spontaneously, that now have grave consequences for her life.
I thought that it would really fit a musical or a classic movie, the song befitting a scene where we learn more about the background of the singer (respectively her character).

A really great and touching piece in my opinion. The version without lyrics seemed outright bland in comparison.

If I have to complain about something then it would be that the visuals are not tied strong enought to the lyrics, but that's just my view.

Overall a great demo which will stay on my HD for a long time.

After some time and many watching I must admit, I like this demo more and more. Even voice in remastered version is not that irritating than in compo version. This is most coherent demo in ASD history and true eyecandy. Wish you win the best effect price.

I would I could give this another thumb up....

Overall, I liked this. Please, though, aMusic, consider submitting the lyrics you write to a native English speaker so they can let you know about things you might not have caught that sound awkward or jarring! The lyrics to this were much better in that sense than the ones to Spin but I still found myself wincing at some of the phrasing.

I liked this demo a lot, more than some of your, in my opinion, slightly psychodelic demos that scare more than inspire.
It does not enforce anything over you: it just tells a sad tale, and you see what you want to see.

I liked the piano melody: aMUSiC, if you ever make your own piano album, pray tell us about it: I'll make sure I buy it.
The singing is good after you get used to it, but the singer starts out in a rhythm you can't guess from the piano introduction. It doesn't hurt you after the first refrain, it's just a bit unexpected.

I especially LOVED the "it's raining up -- butterfly -- it's raining down" part with the piano+cello duet.

Thank you for making this beautiful surprise, guys, despite all the real world troubles.

This starts out really fantastic, but after a while it became too much kitch for me. Too bad, this could've become one of my favourite demos.

Superb demo, it has a gentle surreal touch! Amazing combination of music and graphical art!
Thumbs up... Just watch it on your big screen, turn on your sound system on and enjoy!....

One comment though, it would have been nice if in some of the scenes the particles would have danced on the rhythm of the music.
