"Glorious" Cover Video Contest

Wow!!!  I just had another music rush this week as I decided to just "go for it" when I found out about a youtube music video contest with the song "Glorious" from the Meet the Mormons.  I arranged a three part harmony of the song and then put together a youtube video of me singing the song in less than 5 days.  I have never walked out in the open, through a bunch of trees singing my own musical arrangement before.  Can I tell you how weird that was.  But I did it!!!  WOO HOO!!!  Who needs theme parks when I've got adventures in sharing my music with the world.  If you would like to check it out click on the link below:

I would also like to give a shout out to my 11 year old son who helped with video taping of this "Glorious" music video using only a sony cybershot (point and shoot). He captured the footage used in this video in less than 30 minutes, came up with the ideas of how to angle the camera and where I should walk, touching the trees and nature... EVERYTHING!!!! One of my favorite parts of the video footage that he captured was the gust of wind that picked up for about 5 seconds. It was the only wind we had throughout the whole time we were filming. I don't think we could have timed it better. The wind rushing through my hair totally matched the lyrics of the song perfectly. I feel like it was the Lord letting me know he was with Dallin and I as we worked on this project and he was pleased with our efforts. That is the reason I put together this music in the first place, I really felt like it was important for me to try to contribute something to this beautiful collection of cover songs that were meant to uplift and bring people closer to Christ.
