Six years later & this is still one of my favorite things I’ve even watched in my life. ✨🌞💛

[@hellokittied]

She always dances like she savours every sound.

[@datdudecee6298]

And HE danced like he was savouring that a...uhh nevermind. I love this piece to much to bash it🤪😍🤔🤔🤔

[@MoonSquareVenus]

So touching. First time I've ever seen someone take a Bjork piece and make it better and bigger than it was before. I'm full body shivering. Thank You.

[@wanderbyy]

The River choreography caught my breath in my throat, and this one let it release again. Mesmerizing.

[@raineaye]

wanderbyy same here. Galen's work is simply stunning.

[@taliamedina9040]

Her River choreo is where MY awestruck obsession with her began too!! Idc how corny it may sound lol but she truly does have a gift. 😆😑❤❤

[@VOYEURIZED]

I love and respect that this was filmed like a scene from a film. The simplicity of the camera moves, without a lot of tricks and extras. EXCELLENT!

[@l.d.9209]

Saw AJ in Ciara video then decided to look him and Galen up glad I did simply beautiful. Can't stop watching.

[@popsecret2000]

This is romantic, charming, a culture shock in its own and inpiring. Love it!

[@ExtremeConing]

Phuong -Pop Secret- Le why is it a culture shock?

[@imagoodgirl18]

OMG! This can totally go as something Aang and Karata would dance in the Last Airbender!

[@np7926]

Trueeeee ❤️❤️❤️

[@leonsotojoannacamila688]

Beautifully done! Loved the drone shots, too!

[@GalenHooks]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!

[@JL-wc7th]

This is keeping me up at night the same way a new song does when I fall inlove with it. This is a perfect marriage of music and movement. So subtle, stylized and rich. I just can't even..... no words.

[@songbirdcityyea]

My eyes were blessed to see this amazing work!! Absolutely amazing!

[@indikindz]

I think i'm responsible for about 1000 of these views. The unbraiding?? UGH I don't have an extensive enough vocabulary to gush like I want to over this video.

[@RobinWorld33]

7 years later and this is still so powerful and beautiful ❤

[@curseofthepirates]

This is one of the most romantic and beautiful videos I've ever seen. I rewatch it regularly!
