I FINALLY FOUND IT OH MY GOD!!!!!! I found this just now through Google’s music finder, and I sang the intro lead vocals. I saw this about a decade ago now on Rage. I’ve been looking for it since, and this is an amazing feeling. Beautiful song.

Congrats! I know how it is when you FINALLY find that song that's been in your memory, never forgotten. I'm still searching for decades old songs I've lost and cherishing the ones I've found I know what that feeling is like so I'm happy for you! 💚

What I got from it was - when the world tries to keep you at a red light, fear(wolf) creeps up on you, your glass starts to feel half full and thieves try to still your vibe, give yourself the go(greenlight) and keep moving forward. Very spiritual and inspiring.

[@benjaminmitchell416]

The call she made was the call to the Creator. Though the wolf came to tear her apart and make her afraid she made a simple call and the wolf split away in fear. Though life brings us to the red light where we feel we can no longer continue, a simple cry to the creator can make the red light turn green and we can move forward with our life. He is always present and with each and every one of us. We simply must make a call in the heart and he will answer.

[@mardenhill]

the creator is the wolf / the wolf is the creator to move forward you don't need a traffic light. but a great song regardless.

You have no idea how much I needed not only this song but your words. Thank you. Sequoia

[@AlysseStewartOnAir]

Very nice ... Love the comment.

[@as1624a]

+Amaya Smith I'm going to elaborate on my comment. But take it with a grain of salt because it's my interpretation. Jill has been open about her struggle to find love. In the video she stands with a group of plastic mannequins - this represents her being a unique woman in a sea of what feels like copy-cats. In the car she's stuck at a crossroads or a place where she can't go any further. Robert Glass comes in and changes that. He takes her to the next place - moves her beyond where she's stuck and he's the only one who can do that. Or at least they move to the next stop light lol! The wolf is left behind. I think it represents the old her who didn't need anyone. This is way less poetic than my first explanation but more specific. Good luck out here people. Love is hard!
