Honestly it's pretty common for acoustic music to sound better live than in a studio. A lot of producers just add too much crap to the tracks and lose the raw beauty of the original song.
"I'm trying to make you guys a good album" You made an amazing album Kina! I love it immensely and have found it be incredibly inspiring in many ways. It's strange that after devouring Elements and listening to it non stop for nearly a month I feel like I know myself more..that's weird..I don't know what I mean yet..but thank you.
All of her songs are so amazing and beautifully written, sung, and produced. But the greatest ones are of her with just her guitar and pure unfiltered voice, like this one. Such an amazing song!
Everytime I begin to watch this video, I literally can't take my eyes off you. I just stay and watch the all thing over and over to make sure I'm not fantasising, and I just stare at you, breath-taked. You make my heart beat Kina, please, keep doing what you do so well !
I cannot stop listening to this. You wrote an amazing and beautiful song, i am so mad I have just now discovered you. I have now listened to every one of your songs. You are unbelievable! This song is so freaking awesome. Please never stop writing! Amazing.
just heard "together" in a disney parks commercial and i was so happy!! i yelled "kina is on a commercial!" haha i hope more people discover your amazing music!
Hi Kina, Message from France here. I'm glad to tell you that I heard this song on the French radio for the first time yesterday! I immediately recognized your beautiful voice! Coming to Poitiers anytime soon? Lots of love.
I bought your Stairwells album a while back and it's been on repeat since. This acoustic version gives me a greater appreciation for the song. I love it that much more now!
First time saw this video over 10 years ago when I was at college, on a Chinese website 'youku'. I was amazed by the emotional atmosphere Kina created and the stunning sunset. A decade passed, things changed, people left. What a feeling..
phenomenal. i love how sincere and genuine your music is. whenever i listen to you sing, it seems as if you're a close friend singing right next to me. love it. keep it up
Oh, this is so nice. Thank you. A bit more background noise than preferable, particularly in the beginning, but your talent and scene selection virtually erases that small distraction. Beautiful girl, beautiful lyrics, beautiful background. You are amazing. PLEASE don't give up. You're a star.
you bring in so much emotion to your performances. It just looks so flawless..I don't know how to explain it but it just looks so beautiful. KINA YOU ARE A TALENT AND I LOVE YOU OK
I listened to this song before around a year ago. I didn't listen to the lyrics, but now I listen closely and feel the pain and everything in your voice and realize you are not the idol-like person I thought you were, just someone I respect and can look up to. Thanks for that, this video is nice. Team Kina? Haha.
Flawless as always kina. You have such a beautiful voice. It uplift me at times were I feel no hope. You are making a difference.. and your music will change the world someday. Greetings from the UK! I hope that you will do another world tour someday soon, and I hope you can share your beautiful music with South Africa :) xxx ♥
This a great song. I like this Sunset Series. It combines beautiful music and beautiful scenery in one. Surprisingly good audio for being outdoors. You never cease to amaze me. I first found you about a year ago with the "In Your Arms" video, now I can't get enough. You area an AMAZING artist and very pretty too. Keep up the great work!
Your voice it's really really beautiful, you are awesome. When you start to sing, you sounds like a fairy tale, magical! I'm really proud to have meet you at Madrid!
I clicked the like button at 4:16 after hearing the whole song and actually liking it . its people who click the like button at .07 who are the problem with music today. its why we have shit at the tops of the charts and songs like this remain unheard by 90% of the world.Excellent job Kina.
This song is dangerously applicable to me. I'm going through a major rough patch and this seriously helped, so thank you. In any case, this song is beautiful, much like yourself. Never stop making people smile! :)

+Koh jun kai Does thumbs up mean yes you are the only one that feels that way? Darn you, binary feedback system! Darn you to heck!
Omg I've been thinking the same thing too!!! Love the original version much better ❤️

beautiful music...beautiful scenery...and of course amazing kina!!!
All of her songs are so amazing and beautifully written, sung, and produced. But the greatest ones are of her with just her guitar and pure unfiltered voice, like this one. Such an amazing song!
everything about you is beautiful!!
I can feel the emotion even more than the CD version. Keep up the good work. Love from Japan
I luv you kina your song and you are so beautiful!
There is something about her voice that is mesmerizing., so much talent and beauty in one person. I hope she goes far.
Why are you so amazing?
I've been following her for awhile...she's amazing. I regret missing her when she came to Fort Worth. These songs are powerful.
Everytime I begin to watch this video, I literally can't take my eyes off you. I just stay and watch the all thing over and over to make sure I'm not fantasising, and I just stare at you, breath-taked. You make my heart beat Kina, please, keep doing what you do so well !
The only thing more beautiful than a sunset is Kina Grannis singing!!!
I don't understand how someone like her can exist;, great rounded voice, can play various instruments, and of course beautiful.
Kina Grannis has phenominal talent, I can only hope to one day have the vocal skill she has.
so many years later and still coming back to watch this. love love love!
Your fantastic refrain is not gone such easy
I still believe you are one of the most pure artist mainstream and/or underground. I hope for nothing but the best for you!!
I love your all songs..
keep your all things forever..
Beautiful... you, your voice, your melody, your lyrics, your setting. Talent exudes from every part of you. Never stop singing for us!
Super musique, je te suis depuis 6 ans, et je ne lasse de revoir tes clips. Mon petit fiston d'un an t'adore également :)
I love that soft bird in the background right before the first are you gone!
The Lyrics, your voice, the guitar:everything about this song makes me cry..
Thanks a lot dear Kina to share your sunset and your beautiful song "Gone" with us, love you
I've seen this so many times and I know I'll be back here for many more
Please Kina, release this on Spotify, this is my favorite!!!
I think this has become one of my favorite songs. It's such a beautiful song.
How can one person be so talented, beautiful and kind?! Drives me crazy =) Hope you are one day coming to Hanover, Germany!♥
I cannot stop listening to this. You wrote an amazing and beautiful song, i am so mad I have just now discovered you. I have now listened to every one of your songs. You are unbelievable! This song is so freaking awesome. Please never stop writing! Amazing.

More beautiful music from the great Kina Grannis.
This is such a simple video...yet it is unbelievably beautiful
i agreee. the simplicity in her lives - just the acoustic and her voice, i mean its perfect already
I love how her voice sounds exactly the same in music videos and live, omg
How about just wishing Kina all the best rather than arguing about who has talent or whatever?
She is amazing :)
Hi Kina,
Message from France here. I'm glad to tell you that I heard this song on the French radio for the first time yesterday! I immediately recognized your beautiful voice! Coming to Poitiers anytime soon?
Lots of love.
I just wanted to say that the fact that you're song plays on the Disney commercial is amazing. It makes me happy every time I see it :)
I believe its the heart you put into every song that truly touches all of us.
I bought your Stairwells album a while back and it's been on repeat since. This acoustic version gives me a greater appreciation for the song. I love it that much more now!
Thank you Wong Fu for introducing me to this girl. She's freaking amazing.
This song gives me goosebumps EVERYTIME I listen to it.

Something about her voice unedited that totally reaches the heart, or maybe it's the lyrics, either way I love it!
I always love Kina Grannis original and her hairstyles ofcoz !
This was beautiful. Just what I needed at this very moment.
Flawless as always kina. You have such a beautiful voice. It uplift me at times were I feel no hope. You are making a difference.. and your music will change the world someday. Greetings from the UK!

Everything's so perfect in this :)
