Ah! thank you so much! I originally wanted to use some real footage, but could not find any that were okay legally to use. So I thought...maybe I could draw my own footage :D I'm very happy you enjoyed it!

Ah! It's okay ^w^ I care about my listeners and it makes me sad if one of them is suddenly upset with me :( But I also have to follow my heart when it comes to my music. I guess its a fine line between trying to give my listeners what they would like and doing what my creative spirit moves me to do xD and thank you very much *hugs*

Kate is so talented I would much rather meet her than any celebrity I could think of

True i would to

this needs to be a childrens book

You know, your singing impresses me. But what's even more amazing, you sing your own harmonies, you play all those instruments, draw and animate the video...is there anything you can't do? This right here is exactly why you're forever on my subscribed list.

One of the loveliest music videos I've ever seen. You can't watch it and not feel happier. Even my cat loves to watch this, especially the parts with running animals and dragonflies.

I consider this to be a masterpiece in every conceivable way. ^_^ There is so much pure joy and creativity in this project.

It still amazes me to think how much work it would have taken to create all of this art, not to mention the music.

This needs to be in a conservation piece with a beautiful PSA about how life and nature are precious.

If I ever become a famous author and my ideas turn into movies consider yourself having a job of composing and singing. Now, just gotta get published, get famous, and get a movie deal. Crap.

While I do like video game covers, this was AMAZING! Your original works never cease to bring me joy, Erutan! Here's to the 'Modern Bard', Erutan! May her brilliant voice never fade!

This is simply fantastic - I'm amazed by the sheer amount of work you poured into the song and it's video! You've left me in awe my dear and I'm really happy to hear you're allowed to sing again

This is actually a beautiful piece of work :) You captured the spirit of wild Africa and the animation represented real video footage found in nature documentaries. I felt like I was watching one myself and found it very moving (it sent chills, really it did). Keep doing what you're doing, Kate!

Oh Kate, whenever I see a new Erutan video in my subscriptions it makes my entire day amazing. Your vocals and instrumentals are always flawless, and I'm loving the new style of art work on your videos. Keep up the amazing work, these original songs are perfect. You are my absolute favorite artist. So, thank you Kate for all of the hard work you always put in to your music. I simply cannot wait for your next album. :)

You pour all of your energies into every single instrument you play, every little aspect of your work. You inject so much love and effort that as a result, your work can only be described as an explosion of pure passion. You are phenomenal and I'll be buying the single right away.

Everything is so sensitive, passional, polished and pamped... It's so lovely and beautiful. This son fills me entirely with happiness :)

This song helps me continue my book. I can't write without good music. P.S. The lion is the most beautiful thing ever!

Lately, every time I take a break from KZread, I come back to find you've uploaded new music. And, as usual, I'm not disappointed. I really like your work, whether it's original or video game covers. Thanks for sharing! And the art, too! This is really good all the way around.

What a wondrous composition! Makes me want to go run into the wild and enjoy the sun and warm breeze while the grasses tickle my legs. What a feeling you have captured! Wonderful as always. A true inspiration and artist you are! Incredible work! I hope you become even more well known than you already are. If it means anything, if I make it as a film director in the future, I would LOVE to use your music in my films.

Oh, thank you! I'm itunes these days, and also on Loudr.fm (this is for digital releases) and I have a few copies of the physical copies of Raindancer left at home which can be bought through my website :) Please let me know if you have any questions!

Yes! Ah...I think there is a link hidden somewhere in my channel description, but you can also go to deviantart and look up katethegreat19 there :D Thank you!

Love this song it's so beautiful! but I can't help but hear the lyrics as "hey llama" XD

This is quite fantastic! I can't even imagine how long it took you make all the drawings! What I especially adore is how you add so many harmonies and make your voice an orchestra! Magnificent

This one is really starting to grow on me. Great job as always, Kate! I especially like how you managed the dynamics and intensity through out the song, it really gets to you during the most epic parts. Sound quality is super! Drawings and animation looks good too and sets the mood right.

I like how you used lyrics such as "ha la le" I know they sing that in African music, at least I believe they do. I love this song and the wonderful video with it. The song alone gives me chills at some parts, and with the visuals the feeling of wonder this song gives you about the mystery and beauty of life is even stronger. Thank you, Kate, for always creating music that captures my soul and gives me hope. - Joanna

How the Dress did I first hear this now!? I check in regularly. Anyway you've done it again Kate. Another repeat button song. And the african touch, love it!

Hi, I don't know if you anymore remember me, but year or two ago I told you that I have problems with sleeping, so I play your music during the night. I have been following you in youtube for a while, and I love listening these new songs when cleaning and doing chores. I hope you make more videos like Willow maid and this. It feels like your'e ''turning a new page'' in your style. Keep it up, I hope to see someday an album with many original songs. :,>

Holy moley. This was amazing! Great job with everything. I don't think I need to tell you how talented I think you are. All of your hard work definitely paid off. :) I love the build up at the end with the song and the images. The herd part was amazing. Great job, as always.

Your voice is beautiful, your art is beautiful, your music is beautiful, and YOU are beautiful. I'm so glad I found you, because your music just makes me feel awesome. :) Keep making music!

Those harmonies!! And the drawings *w* It's all absolutely stunning! What a great treat to wake up to.

So many people just ignore negative comments, or leave an even more negative comment in response, that it has become the norm in my mind. So much so that seeing you respond like this really shocked me. I am glad people like you exist.

Aaaah Quelle voix ! Quelle vidéo ! Je suis devenu un vrai fan de vos chansons et musiques, particulièrement grâce à ce film ! Pendant la lecture, j'ai trop envie de chanter comme vous... Mais le monde n'est pas prêt ! :-(

siiiigh what a wonderful experience! I can only imagine all the effort that went into making this. Thank you Kate *-*

I am so so thankful that I found this masterpiece!! I cannot stop listening to it. It's beautiful. Such gorgeous art too! ♥

I cried , there are parts of the soul no word can describe . Your music is truly moving , I am grateful you share it with us.

OMG This is amazing Kate!!! The sung has such an epic vibe, and the video is incredibly well done O__O I can tell you've put so much effort and work on this project, congratulations, it's perfect!!

The effort you put into this video is beyond amazing (I've done animation at college so I know how much time and effort it takes), it really takes the beauty of our world and adds it to what appears to be a much better one. I want to live there! And those two birds were so adorable, I literally went 'awh' out loud haha beautiful work and I love the song too!

Times like this it astounds me that every aspect of everything I can see and hear came from just 1 person! Love the snuggling birds! ^_^ And that guy at 2:52 is definitely up to some shady business! XD

I personally *love* your non-lyric songs (as well as those with lyrics, of course). While lyrics bring a certain focus and meaning to a song, your purely vocal or made-up language songs are more primal, spiritual, and otherworldly in a way that fires my imagination and emotions. And this African style is awesome! This song is definitely one of my favorites, and that's saying a lot.

Incroyable

We're so happy you've recovered! And what a beautiful song and video to come back with! :) Don't let the debt stress you out too much and stay healthy! We'll support you, even if it's just a little bit now and then. ;)

This is so beautiful Kate! Its so relaxing and as usual enchanting! You've come so far! :)

All your songs and videos are gorgeous but i have to give extra props to the visuals on this video they were absolutely beautiful! :D

thank you for existing Erutan

So, you write, you sing, you play instruments, you're good at putting together videos, and your drawing are amazing... Wow ! Honnestly, I discovered you two weeks ago, and I've been listening to you almost everyday since, and yesterday I showed some of your compositions to a friend, and she said :"how have I lived my life without knowing her before", and I was in complete agreement with her. Thank you so much for all the work you have done, you have created an amazing universe, filled with poetry and beauty. I wish you the best, and hope to see more amazing creations from you 🤹

This just makes me cry like a baby. Because of all the beauty of life on Earth... The music and the animations together just become a door for me into merging with it.

Wow, I can see why this took you so long, its incredible!

A decent majority is similar to "scenes" from Lion King :) The ants going up the log, the meerkats, birds flying over the river, the sunrise/sunset over the savanna, "Simba" roaring :) I like it =D

This is the best thing I've found in KZread in years! Thank you for this masterpiece! 💗😍💗

LOVE IT. I've bought just about all your work on iTunes, they're beyond fantastic!

Please put this on Spotify! Beautiful music and visuals by the way! So underrated!

I can’t thank you enough for all the beauty you have created. It nourishes my soul so much.

This is so beautiful! *-* I loved watching (and listening) every seconds of it!

I was so happy to find you uploaded a new song, I actually squealed with joy. Your songs make me happy and are so beautifully made. I really like the way you use your voice and instruments. This is song is no exception, it is absolutely gorgeous. Keep on creating and singing! ^^

The most beautiful songs that I know are all made by you, you are an incredible artist!

You are a Bard in every sense of the word. So very very talented and someone I could only ever dream of emulating. Thankyou for sharing your gifts with the world. You are one who makes this world a much better place.

Hi Kate, I think your voice is great and don't let some ignorant person get you down. Many artists use their voices as an instrument without words to convey a mood. God gave you a blessed gift, please keep up the excellent work :-)

Someday, when I have a child, I'm going to introduce him or her to your music, so they know what truly beautiful music sounds like. This song had such a peaceful and soothing yet cheery and upbeat tone to it. Very well done, and beautiful art! I wish I could be as talented as you. ;o;

This is so ... beautiful :')

Love this Kate! Hope your voice feels better :)

I really like this song. It's not one that seems to immediately and overtly evoke certain emotions like some of your other work can, but it kind of stays in the background and slowly and subtly builds them up into something really uplifting, airy, and wonderful. At the end of it, I'm just always left with a really pleasant and positive mood. It's a song that feels good. :)

I love your art style! I feel like this would work well in a children's book for some reason. I can't really say why...

I went through a similar thing with my vocal cords, Kate! it all turned out well and now I'm a logopedist, helping people with voice problems. keep your head up, and thank you for the amazing song&video!!

What a masterpiece from beginning to end. 🙌🏻👏🏻

She can sing, she plays countless instruments and she can even paint! Is there anything she can't do? Amazing!

As someone who has been in Africa for a few times I have to say that especially the ending scenes perfectly captured that special feeling that I can only call Africa!

That happened to me as well. D: So beautifully composed/sung/played... Seriously, I'll buy your new album, Kate, right away when it's released.

I think this is absolutely beautiful, and it's so wonderful how not only do you compose and play and sing the entire composition, but you even animate your own artworks for the music videos too!

So beautiful. Brought me to tears.

Absolutely, dear. It's amazing how much work you put into this, the animation sure isn't professional, but so is everything else, the drawings, the colours, the music (both in composition and execution) and knowing that it comes from one person alone is beyond stunning! I wish I had your patience and dedication.

Truly magical and beautiful, thank you Erutan for the hours put into this, worth every second.

This was just about the most enjoyable thing I've ever seen or heard. The talent you have is just limitless.

So beautiful. Loved the song and the gorgeous art. Such details!!

You've done it again, love! I was giddy with excitement when I saw your post on Facebook. Bless you in everything you do!

I love it, your music is so amazing and inspires me so much not only in drawing but in music as well

This is beautiful!

I found this beautiful. I sat back with a nice cup of turkish coffee, laid back, and let your music take me into a imagination that was spurred on by your music. I find it amazing that you can draw a landscape in my mind just by your music. Don't think about what haters say too much. You're never going to make everyone happy. If I found a way to end all wars tomorrow, there would be at least one douche saying, "great all the weapon makers are out of jobs, THANKS AZZHOSE!" :T

Wow this was just...wow Absolutely beautiful! Words can hardly tell of how wonderful this was.

Purchased. Get well soon Kate, I will support you though this. I remember when your first album came out I bought it on the spot. And when you remastered your game tunes I made a custom CD case for it. I have you in my prayers, please get well. When you do, don't forget your fans in the Northeast US, please do a show here in Philly. You are a gifted soul, stride on my dear.

Truly masterful mixing of beautiful elements. Magnificent complexity that somehow brings relaxation and quiet inspiration. Kudos to the Renaissance Woman!
