Fun for sure, but a little repetitive. And the video needs to go in different directions rather than follow the same loop. I wanted to see other things when the loop came back, and I found the shift at the 55 (and subsequent) second mark jarring.

Following a melody and expanding on it is far better than beating the same horse over and over again.

Back to the images in the video, repeating the same images in the same order, and having an inexplicable image change was VERY confusing, and I am still trying to process that imagery

Hmmm...should I start the “cumberbund” vs. “cummerbund” debate?

Thanks for the tune. We need a break from being keyboard warriors.

Thanks for the tune! It is good for the soul to step back from the news.
