Would love any opinions or suggestions for improvement.

Right at the point where "You're probably wondering what this video is about" flashed up, I was wondering, so good timing on that.
 
Hope you learnt something on the video software. Nice tune BTW.
 
Regards,
Dan

Hello big Dan and Daryl,
 
Wow! Two posts in, and no one has called me an "amateur" yet!  :)   Actually, this is my first ever video, and I'm sure it shows. Adobe Premiere Elements filled with free clips harvested from the interwebbery.
 
I'm beginning to realize it looks akin to something an advanced 5th grader would make for a class project. But thanks for the views and glad you liked the song.

That is a nice groove Tom. really like the track, getting some Shakatak, Level 42 vibes. You've certainly learned how to put a video together, perhaps the next one will be more cohesive eh?  some of it worked nicely with the mood of the track, the outer space shots and the misty coastline/mountains for example, but stuff like the 1950's guy talking and the early Disney-esque text boards were a bit out of place to me.

Nice groove Tom, wobbly EP is always a winner with me.  As usual I did not really watch the video.
 
Nice share thanks.

Haha! Yeah, as Dan says, I was wondering what this video was about... Thankfully all became clear
 
So do you think you'll carry on with the video editing then? I liked doing it, but, hell, it's even more time consuming than creating music!
 
Talking of music, yeah, that was pretty cool too
 
Another keeper, as they say
 
cheers

The video was quite trippy...    
 
The tune was quite nice.   Great groove, with some really nice playing over top.   The "piano section" about 2/3 thru was my favorite part - loved those chord changes and lines.     Really good stuff all around.

Cool vid Tom! LOL, "cats in baskets of yarn". Yeah, I had to pause it to read all that....
I liked all the trippy images, must be a reflection of my wilder, more "experimental" days
 
And the track was sweet. Your piano work was great as usual. And a great groove with cool changes.
All in all, I really enjoyed it, thanks!

Nice laid back tune with a very cool and catchy melody. This is really well done - the sound is perfect to my ears. Loved the video - don't think you need to change a thing.
