[@Awrethien]

Wondering how much symbolism there is to the room in the video is intentional. When it starts she is sadly looking out the window of a dark room, then surrounded by books reading 'The Talisman', the desk is scattered with parts and tools. She finds an object out of that world, then excitedly goes on an adventure. When she reluctantly returns, the room is brighter, the books are put away, the desk cleaned, and she is much happier. My take? Sometimes we need a little something to remind us to take a break from the world, to step back and sort out our thoughts to stay happy. Then again they could have been just trying to make a cool video lol.

[@sopapia111]

Robert Rockey I was wondering about that! Thank you for giving a possible explanation :)

[@matosz23]

I like your theory. And now I can see what each stage represents. Thanks for your input.

[@Awrethien]

Yea the book sealed the deal for me. 'The Talisman' is a dark book about a kid that travels between parallel worlds in a quest to save his mother. Not sure if there is a more clear case of escapism.

[@Spooky_Psyche]

I think the flower dying when she touches it further supports this theory.

[@usul573]

Robert Rockey I think on her concert she mentioned this song being tied into her religious views, but then again it can mean something different to each person.

She was on one of the talent shows too and blew me away! I think a duet if her and Lindsey would be AWESOME! So much energy they might set the stage on fire tho! Lol.🔥🎻🎼🚵😍

[@laurametheny1008]

Nour Camelia It is my granddaughter sweetie. She does practice alot-or did during school year. She has much to learn tho. She is in all honors classes and orchestra and wants my Mother to teach her electronic keyboard as well. She is also very social. She wants an electric violin like Lettice-I didn't even realize until recently that they made such things! Frankly I think she's crowding herself as I understand the violin to be a difficult instrument to master unless you are a prodigy. So I think you are fine! If you truly want to become great you will-but it WILL take lots if work and patience with yourself. Mayhap you will have to choose and make some sacrifices as I believe she will soon enough. But if you are committed enough to ask these questions and be troubled-I think you will achieve your goals. Good Luck honey!😍✌🎻

Poisonous Chipato Couldn't agree with you more, I'm a violinist too, and it's so hard to get a stroke just right, people don't enjoy the creativity that us violinists use to make the music we play come to life, which is why I respect this piece. It's her creativity, and we all picture songs differently. This is her point of view

Elea Lion ... This song was dedicated by Lindsey to my baby brother who committed suicide in August of 2013. He was a close fan of hers from the VERY beginning.

The video always makes me feel like it's someone getting over depression. To begin with, you're just in your dark grey bedroom, uninspired and demotivated to leave just passing the time doing nothing; trapped almost. You finally make a decision to start fighting but you have no idea what path you're supposed to take and often find yourself going in circles. it's a long battle and struggle to finally start finding your way and go through the correct door. Your life from there starts turning upside down and it's getting scary. You could turn back and go back to your grey room of demotovation or keep fighting. Finally you're at peace and you have found yourself and happiness, it's now time to go back to your normal life. You're apprehensive but find that your normal life is actually pretty good! It's colourful and full of life; how you had never seen it before. Depression has been fought off.

I feel like this video depicts the nature of dreams. Everything in your dream seems odd (stairs that lead to nowhere, rowing a boat in the sky, jumping unnaturally high), but when you’re in it, everything seems to make sense and you just go with the flow. Then there’s a lot of slow mo in the video like when she’s jumping or trying to row quickly, and it’s like when you try to run in a dream and you feel like you’re under water. And when you wake up you can’t quite remember your dream, but you remember pieces of it and it leaves you with a sort of content feeling. I’ve loved this video since I was in middle school (I’m about to graduate college now) and it will always be one of my favorites

My 13 year old me listened to this song 24/7 while daydreaming about fictional stories

[@ae.zennie]

This is brilliant! But did anyone else notice she didn't have her violin with her in this video? :o

[@Princemohamed8]

countrymusicgirl249 According to the behind the scenes video for this, she said she wanted to try something new. I personally like it when I see her play the violin in her videos, still liked this one though.

[@ae.zennie]

***** same :) and thanks for the info!

[@zombieslayer107]

Well, its kinda hard to play violin while climbing stairs and rowing a boat

[@Princemohamed8]

zombieslayer107 I suppose they could have switched between playing the violin and doing other things, like Lindsey does in some of her other videos. But I suppose that would have broken up the flow that Joe Sill was aiming for.

Dear Lindsey. I'm 14 years old, and i have a syndrom called aspergers, it makes everything much harder for me. I used to go to a public school until 3 years ago, i dropped out, because i couldn't handle it anymore. I was home for 2 years, but now things are changing to the better. Im going to be in a special school for other people with Aspergers. It is taking up alot of my energy just getting out of the door, so i don't have much left when i get home, where i play the piano. I've been playing since i was 6, and my teacher says i have a talent for it. But it all seems so hard to do, so much practice. I'm not sure that you understand how it is for me, but just practicing daily is very tough, and i can easily just give up, and tell myself: I can't do it, and then go into my room and not practice. How do you keep going? How do you practice so much and still so energetic and happy? It's incredible.. I wish that i could be more like you, but i just don't know how i can keep up with my life. I am a boy who really likes music, and i do not struggle in the school at all. So i hope you can understand, that it's hard being trapped with this autistic brain of mine, which i try to fight, but i have lost many times. It's very hard for me to speak out about this, and i have spend alot of time deciding weather to do this or not. I hope you reply. -A pianist from Denmark...

[@rscesar4665]

+Malleboy122 Hello! I'm not a musician, but when I read your comment I remember my brother. He has Asperger Syndrome too. Like you, school was a huge challenge for him. Today he faces challenges in his job too (he is 25 years old) . I understand your difficulties! But if you like play piano, don't give up! Enjoy yourself! Maybe the music can be a link between you and the people. Best wishes,A Brazilian Lindsey's fan

[@Mainiac1221]

+Malleboy122 I too have aspurgers, like yourself. It's an incredibly challenging condition to deal with at times. It inhibits my socializing abilities, and my time management isn't the best by any stretch, but like any issue anyone has, the best way to deal with these things is head-on. Create a vision for yourself; set a goal, a direction. Something specific you want to do, something short term, and realistic, then go for it! Incremental steps are small pieces of something much bigger - an extensive plan, a transformation of oneself. Like you, I struggled in school. People picked on me, but I never let that get to me, I never gave them the satisfaction, because I knew deep down, they were wrong. I found what I loved doing, one of my greatest passions of all, story making, and I turned that into an escape. Eventually, I stopped as I lost interest, but that didn't stop me from thinking about it. Also, I tried my hardest to understand other's point of view, to build up who I was like a house, piece by piece, and it was tricky. A lot of times, I felt like I was the odd one out. But then I realized, I didn't have to fit in. I didn't have to be the same cookie cutter person everyone else was trying to be (in school at least), and I forged my own way. Today, I firmly believe, everyone on this planet is equal, because we are all unique. You. Me. Lindsey Stirling. Every commenter on this video(even though some might make that not seem the case). We're all equal in our own ways. You may struggle now, but just look at how far you've come. What have you achieved? Does it make you happy when you think about it? Even if it doesn't, set goals for yourself by all means, BUT, just as importantly never put yourself down if you're not instantly comparable to someone you idolise. You're only 14; you've got YEEEAAARS to get there. YEARS! I'm 21 now, and I might not write to a J.K. rowling level, but I'm getting there, step by step. Baby steps, vision, and passion - apply incremental small steps with passion in an ever advancing quest to reach your grand vision! What do you want to be? Oh, and another thing. Telling yourself "I can't do it" is completley unreasonable. You can do whatever you set your sights on! Heck, I couldn't even draw anything but equations and stick figures 1 and a half years ago, then I made this! mistervertality.deviantart.com/art/Drawing-attempt-1-536805159 I didn't think I could do it again, better, but then I gave it a try. I took those "I can't do it" comments, and threw them in the trash, then this happened mistervertality.deviantart.com/art/Drawing-Michele-Attempt-2-540260903. Then I started to wrap a story around her and her friends. I didn't even think I could write a story this well! The last time I actually sat down and tried to write a story was when I was your age, and looking back, my earlier efforts were not that great compared to where I am now, but they were the beginning! I'm light years ahead of that now, and you can too, with respect to your passion! Point is: don't give up on yourself, just because you "can't do it", and make a plan for yourself, no matter how simple it is! -Some random bloke from Australia with Aspurgers Syndrome :)

[@autisticcormorant6881]

i drew a lot as well. but it faded away with time. But it's coming back. After i started to listen to Lindsey's music, i've been in school all day everyday, and actually felt it worked.

[@Mainiac1221]

+Malleboy122 Whatever it takes to get that passion flowing. Music is a good motivator for me too. Helps my mind stick to a certain way of thinking when I'm doing a certain task, with the stamina to back it up :)

[@autumnmowry1100]

+Malleboy122 Hello, I'm 14 years old as well and I love the piano but I gave up at it. My mother died of cancer 3 weeks ago. I watched her slowly deteriorate and die. She wanted to live so badly but in the end she just couldn't do it. She slowly lost the ability to walk and became anorexic because she had a tumor in her stomach so big that she couldn't eat anything without having unbearable pain. There is a lot more than that but I don't really want to get into all of it. My point is if something makes you happy or your passionate about something go for it, because you never know when something like what happened to my mom is going to happen to you. Don't spend the rest of your life regretting how you dropped out of piano. If you love it, do it! It might be difficult at times but life is difficult and we just have to get passed the difficult stuff and enjoy the rest of it. I can't pretend to understand what its like to have aspergers or know how difficult it is to do stuff with it, but no matter whats happening to you, there are still beautiful things in life that are worth seeing, or hearing, or playing, whatever. I think that each little thing is different for each person but maybe piano is one of them for you. Don't let your syndrome take that away from you. Don't let it take that little beautiful thing away. -A girl in Virginia whose mother died of cancer

Whoa. Finally find another hidden gem! But some of you may like or don't like the fact that i just discovered this thanks to a bossfight in a 2d pixel game... (And yeah, i'm staying for the music)

[@TwistedDark]

5 years later, and I still get goose bumps from this song

[@StephaneChapheau]

Very nice song. Only one complaint: The dubstep takes off the magic.

[@AraiiarA]

She made an orchestral version, not sure if you're aware. If not look it up the one complaint you had will be gone ;D

[@rogerfinney6809]

DoctorGamesBr An orchestral of Take Flight (not Shatter Me)? Where can it be found?

[@Paulix00]

the dubstep that adds the magic

[@aongocthanhhai6022]

There is an orchestral version , you can find it in the deluxe version of her album Shatter Me. I personally prefer this version.

[@darryl.llanura]

I think it's harmonic and awesome at the same time

[@tjthegamer2204]

I don't exactly know why, but Lindsey's music always inspires me to write.

[@kduv889]

the moment the violin started playing....i just started tearing up....i cant explain why exactly and it might just be because i'm dealing with a lot of anxiety lately but one thing is for sure. this song and ***** in general understands how to invoke emotion through music and this song really resonated with me. Thank you.

[@TrunteFlunk]

I also find a lot of comfort in her music. This one is one of my favorites so far, and it can randomly make me tear up as well for no apparent reason. It's just beautiful.

[@ashbringerx9859]

I understand you and yeah this music have something special to it, this makes me also tear up when the music begins. Perhaps because I am going through a lot of struggles right now... friendship, love, family.. but this music comfort me, I know the meaning behind it and it gives me courage and hope I think.

[@JustinPulsipher]

After having gone through some personal stuff that completely ruined all music for me (I didn't want to listen to it, play it, make it, think about it, anything), it was Lindsey's music in the end that helped me rediscover joy in music.

[@Melinakmac16]

Wow. This is amazing and I love the message of the song and the video. Another masterpiece by Lindsey!

[@msdoubleme]

Yay melina ^^ it is awsomeeee

[@jeuxderobin]

What is the message ?

[@captianzanzey]

robin Quelque chose The message I got from it is that no matter what, you always have some sort of hope. It might be confusing times, but you still have hope, and when the worst of the worst happens, and you think hope is lost, it shows that it really was there the whole time.
