OKAY Y'ALL I'M REALLY EXCITED FOR THIS ONE!! More excited than I've been about a cover in quite a while, haha.
There's so much that gets me jazzed about this cover - all the layered harp parts, the gorgeous vocals that just float over the accompaniment... AND I got to do this with my good friend Julia Henderson!! Working with Julia was a delight and she really knocked it out of the park with those soaring melody lines. Hearing our voices blend in the mix made me giddy every time I heard so I've been listening to it on repeat for weeks, hahaha.
What was also really fun about this was trying out all the harp lines on different harps I have and seeing which harp suited which part best! (Another plus to using different harps is that it helps differentiate the parts in the mix.)
Not only that, but I got to pull out a recorder for the first time in ages, AND my upright piano made its first ever recorded appearance in one of my covers. My headphones could barely stretch far enough from my interface when I was recording so I had to kneel a bit far away from the piano and reach over to play the notes XD Got the job done, though!
I hope you'll love this cover as much as I do!

I was expecting this to be beautiful, but I did not expect the goosebumps! The two of you blend very well together, and the harps working together make a texture at once rich and yet wispy like fog. absolutely magical, I love it so much!

This video description 'sponsor' is spot spot spot on.

2 really impressives voices we have here. Quite a treat for the ears. Thank you very much !!
*This song is perfect. Great job.* ❤
Thank you so much!
Nonstop chills from the first note to the last ^___^ Beautiful playing, beautiful voices, excuse me while I play this on repeat for a while XD
Thank you so much!
Absolutely magical
Thank you!
Everything about this was so pretty, loved the vocal harmonies and the cosplay too!
Thanks Rahul!!
Love this collaboration with Julia, Samantha! You play the recorder much better than I did during my ill-fated foray into instrumental music as a fourth-grader.
Haha, thanks Bob! Turns out it can actually be a really nice instrument:D
This is so amazing. I can't imagine how much work it took putting all of those different harp parts together. And the singing is divine ❤
Thank you!!! The harp parts actually weren’t too bad, since each one was fairly simple on its own, it was much faster to record each part than a typical solo so that was nice!
You guys just Rolled a Crit 20 in performance! :P
Amazing voices both of you. It is sending chills, specially 1:13 high notes.
Julia totally knocked it out of the park on those high notes!
My Friday was kinda interrupted and I had to leave the stream for personal reasons. But when I can back later that day and caught the video I was blown away and your singing and harp playing skills are totally amazing 👏👏👏👏 you two did a wonderful job
Great job! Beautiful!!!
