- 'How Long' aka 'How Long Will it Take' is now available for download here: paulatoledo.bandcamp.com/trac...
Over 16 years ago a song I had written 'How Long' (aka 'How Long Will It Take') was licensed to a made for TV movie 'Secret Lives' that aired world-wide. Somehow my song made its way onto a Russian bootleg DVD's menu (with no attribution). Someone in Russia asked on a Reddit community if someone knew who the author of the song was. The song became a 'lost song' and for 16 years people were searching for the author (me). Yesterday, I found out that over a thousand people all over the world have been searching for me. I had stopped making music (full-time) when my children were born as I lost my husband very suddenly and tragically, and life turned my world upside down. In the corners of my bedroom during nap time and all throughout the years, I have been writing songs as a way to reconnect to my wonder and the joy of making music. I am in complete awe of how this song has re-emerged into my life and connected me to so many beautiful people who feel the same way about music. I am filled with gratitude and awe. Thank you to everyone who was so dedicated in their search and for the outpouring of love and DMs!

Funniest part is that people have been looking for this song for 16 years and her son is also 16 so people started looking for it around when her son was born
and you have 16 likes!
sorry that might've ruined the motive...

This is the sign. The sign to pick up where you left off. Share your talent with the rest of the world again.
Yes!
Hey Paula, I’ll explain here how your song became “lost media.”
The search started in 2007 when your song ‘How Long’ was seen in various random bootleg DVDs from russia. (30 second snippets were on the DVD menu.) No one was able to find the full song, where it came from, or any info about it for some reason. Music recognizers couldn’t get it, after googling the lyrics there weren’t any matches, and it had remained that way for the past 17 years. We haven’t known about the movie till recently, aswell. A longer search started earlier this year which led to someone eventually finding the song and you, the author. We had only low quality snippets of the song from bootleg DVDs beforehand, so finding the full song & author on a podcast was a big deal. To add, most of the DVD’s all had the same segments so we only had a little over a minute of the song before finding it.
Your song was seen in various russian bootleg DVD’s because:
Various unofficial russian dubbings of the movie were made, with your song playing at the very end (not in full, though.) The bootleggers likely liked your song ripped it right from the unofficial dubbings of the movie of it to add to their DVDs menus.
Finding this song was a very difficult task, it’s been a 17 year long search. Also because this song was not released officially or on any streaming services, that’s another reason why it was so difficult to find. We were going off of no information but the small snippets we had. Hopefully you see this❤ Sending love!
Only Jesus Christ blood can cleanse us of are sins come to Jesus Christ today
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Come to Jesus Christ today
Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void.
The Holy Spirit can lead you guide and confort you through it all
Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today
Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Jesus
@@hardkol who found it they have my respect
Wasn't that part found after people started looking into it by itself via a small sample?
I can imagine your son's reaction to all this situation 😂 "Omg I am the child of an internet legend"
HES ON A FREAKING WIKIPEDIA PAGE 😭😭😭😭

That's exactly how he reacted! 😂
how long will it take? IT TOOK 16 YEARS !!

The reason why your song became lost is not because the movie didn't have your name, but rather the fact that people didn't realize the song was licensed and made an appearance on that very movie, until several years passed by and people started to catch on.
oh god
it was found in a different dvd, not the one from the movie this song was licensed in
@@thiagoramos9418
Curious.
What movie?
@@mddell58The original snippet was found in a bootleg DVD-R of Jacou Le Crouqant.
Does anyone have a clip of the scene it was in in the movie?
very simplistic explanation: person -> bootleg -> audio from bootleg -> lostwave -> many people watch and search for it -> user finds your podcast and that exact song -> post it everywhere -> you make video on this whole thing
7:58 still sounds like the original song
Fun fact: if you make a genuinely piece of good art, people will literally go to the ends of the earth to find it if it’s lost
The song became lost media because it appeared on Russian bootlegs with no credit. Somehow we all managed to miss the movie, as it was rather obscure before it got uploaded to CZcams 4 months ago.
What i find is funny is that for 16 years nobody could find the origin despite it being featured in a movie AND a canadian tv show. How is it that nobody even recognized it in all that time is beyond me.
@@adrianpaul1985 Probably because there are billions of people on earth and there has been maybe a few thousand of them in total with knowledge of this search. Unfortunately, the search just didn't reach the right ears until it was found the other day 🤷♂😁
@@adrianpaul1985 Even "The Livin' and the Dyin' " (Jim Dawson), which was released on a studio album from a major US record label, managed to become a lost song ... there was a hunt for the song until one day, someone just said "hey I know that song". the world is still a huge place and there's lots of mystery out there to discover :)
@@sherwinkwan1758Remember when one of dwayne’s song was lost until someone just randomly out of the blue found it?
ITS HWLIT BOYS!!!!!! WE DID IT!!!!!!! 16 YEARS!!!!
I’ve been a part of the lostwave community for a few months now, and I joined r/HLWIT over a month ago. I still cant believe the song haa been found so quickly compared to other lost songs, it’s really special, and the song is a total banger! I’m so happy to see your reaction to all of this, it makes me happy to have been a part of the community :)
Have you known it was lost for 16 years?
@@JackebBee-iz7qi I learned that when I joined the community
Hey can you send a link to any lostwave server?
It was lost for 16 years though
Greetings, Paula! I'm so glad to know that it's now out there in the open. I am Alex, one of the people hearing the infamous snippet of song on the DVD menu in Russia back in 2007 and trying to find it, and one of people initiating and joining the search as I've been looking for it for ages, too, making posts at one or another time at different years, until the one on WatZatSong kicked that stone off the cliff. Before that, it was nowhere to be found; searching for lyrics yielded nothing, Shazam when it appeared didn't know it.. It was clear that the song wasn't out there enough. :)) Now, I'm really happy that it has been named and got all the appreciation and attention that it deserves. It did not only get the closure for so many people, it avalanched into this rediscovery. I was very much surprised back in the day and later that a song like this remained unknown for so long up until now, and I'm elated and overjoyed that it's out there now, and that you're out there, because I was afraid that it could be something like a demo piece that wouldn't ever get its name and appreciation because it was so great. It's an amazing sight to see to what extent the search blossomed, too! I would also love to read the full lyrics when they get released and I'll be waiting for the song release, too. :) I'm so cheered to know that the people are now here, that it's taken to the community, and listening to the song and to your response really puts my heart in the happy place.It's not about identification even, my own search for it, as, I think, for the community as well, has long since become about appreciation and discovery. I'm extremely happy for finally having the opportunity to put this message here, and express my gratitude for you as the author behind it.
My own personal ode to wonder that I confirmed time and again by now, is that if someone carries the banner long enough, the cause behind it can't ever possibly falter, as long as it has even just one person on its side. And after that, who knows?..
ALEX OH MY GOD HI
Это имба
Dear Alex! You are a legend in my recent discovery! Thank you so much for writing. I have read and re-read your post. It is so beautifully written and conveyed with such humility. I can't tell you what it means to me to read how the song impacted you and the others. I love how we are all mind-blown by this song resurfacing/uniting/then connecting - but for different reasons. From opposite ends of the solved mystery, we are all left with our jaws hanging while jumping out of our seats!
It feels so satisfying to see this song come full circle for you, the lost wave community & subreddit HLWIT, not to mention for me, and the musicians who gave their heart and talent to this song. We put so much love into this song, and to see it have wings...the fact that it has been flying for 16 years and only landed a few weeks ago, is just incredible AND surreal! It warms my heart to see how music can be so powerful and uniting. It really moves me to learn that some members of this community were probably searching during the pandemic and that the mystery and search gave them a shared purpose and meaning. To hear that some people made real friends through their search for my song brings me so much joy! (I am also so relieved that you all were in great spirits upon hearing the full version! It could have been a real disaster/letdown for you all *artist sigh of relief!!*)
Sometimes, I feel like I am watching a movie unfold before me, but then I take a step back and realize that I am in this movie! I wanted to thank you personally for having so much interest in my song in the first place and for being curious enough to inquire, not to mention being so tenacious that you asked about it several times.
The thing I love the most is that while the mystery has been solved, the song continues to take off and fly and most recently raised 1K for Music Heals charity and will support youth, young adults, and bereavement camps through music therapy. You all inspired me to pay it forward with the hopes that you all can now see the massive impact it has made on my life and the lives of others who could use music therapy.
Personally, I am so honoured to see all the art and inspiration that is coming out of this community, whether it be short films, cover songs, illustrated art, or new songs. It's beyond my wildest dreams.
The song reminds me of a tulip I planted years ago. For years, it didn't blossom, then one spring, it just appeared, seemingly out of nowhere.
I think we all have a 'How Long' in our lives, but sometimes we lose faith..sometimes it takes just one person to help turn the soil so to speak - to help what we planted get the nourishment it needs and deserves. I can't thank you enough. I am so grateful to you and the others who were so dedicated in the search.
I am wishing you nothing but the best for 2024+ onwards.
Keep well,
Paula

Greetings, Paula!
It's an absolutely... I'm trying to find a word here, and I think that I feel absolutely dazed? stunned? by reading your reply, and it feels as if I'm suddenly on air. It really is a very humbling experience for me too, and I love that feeling. Deep inside I'm really glad that it's gotten all that traction, and I am overjoyed to read your reply. It's really like a legend and it feels very profound to have played a part in it. Doesn't matter what part, but when it was finally confirmed, all I wanted was to write a message of gratitude for this piece of music and that it be noticed.
Well...at one point, I started to appreciate that small snippet of the song, but very soon I thought that it was kind of..unfair that THIS piece didn't have a name. Although we know many pieces of art in history that went through difficult paths, but it's just that not one of them had to. I think that the most amazing parts of modern technologies is that it allows to find a lot; to connect everything and everyone who we previously thought out of reach or almost like 'living on another planet'. Well, that's my 'pet' distortion of thinking: I always forget that it's possible to just write a message and it will be there. Umm...when I was a kid, I always thought that artists were totally out of reach (my mother still makes fun of that a little, if I'm completely honest. :))) ) but it's absolutely amazing to have read your words. Count that as a small wonder for me, too.
My sincerest regards for all the upcoming 2024+ year, the creative works, and every accomplishment that you decide to pursue, to bring fulfillment and joy. I hope it doesn't sound too 'cheesy' because this is really what I want to write. It's amazing to have your reply. I can't help but understand that this all was made possible by all the effort done by all the amazing people out there. And I really admired watching this unfold. :)) it was some sort of satisfaction that felt like "Okay, this part of the world is now in correct order" 🤭. I'll be on in touch with the events, for certain!! I really want to see what further good will play out. And I'm sure it will, because now it's in place, and that makes up for all the peace of my mind.
Nothing but the best regards in the upcoming year to you and yours, in all the genuine effort and deeds!!
очень круто что ты сохранял связь с сообществом все эти 13 лет
really beautiful humanity moment, im glad i was here to witness this

I love u pfp ❤

It's very interesting to hear what the artists of lost songs say after being discovered.
if only more did that
Some more artists who did that:
The Gallery (So Totally Insane)
Intense (I Believe)
Coca (Simple Guy)
Cole Toury
Mayen (Carpark)
First Person (Making Dedication)
@@ZapperRSalso Royal Treatment Plant (Funky) and David SonJC (Katonda Alinawe)
@@17ambers Jonny Cohen (Maniac Laugh)
and now one of the members of the defended (aka the band behind man on a hill/there's a man) has come forward and he's super cool (they might actually upload more of their music soon :D)
Heartwarming when lostwave artists are still active to see people showing interest in their music. A bit gimmicky but it'll be interesting if you meet up with other former lostwave artist like Panchiko and give insight as to how musicians lose their music in obscurity, and perhaps help out lostwave searches.
paula toledo is becoming the next panchiko and im all for it, she's incredibly talented
She's really nice, from what I've seen here
Your voice is beautiful, you’re beautiful, your story is beautiful. I love you and i am overwhelmed with joy i’ve waited so long for this song and i can’t stop listening to it now
literally this fr
the fact that a song specifically made for a movie landed from a ukrainian forum in 2007, then on to a bootleg DVD player called the MULTIPARAD 1-7 (with MULTIPARAD 4 having a fragment of the song) and then on CZcams where it became found. Insane.
Paula seems like such an amazing person! I would love to hear more of her music

前两天在B站了解到丢失音频🎶，没想到今天找到了
Aaaah, I am so glad we found you, and I'm so excited to hear your other works! Thanks so much for taking the time to acknowledge us and answer our questions!
We didn't actually know the song was in Secret Lives until *after* we found you. In retrospect, we're pretty sure Secret Lives was the origin of what the bootleg DVD makers ripped and put on the DVD menus, but the DVD menus themselves didn't credit you nor mention Secret Lives at all, so nobody had any idea!
Hello, like you, I am shocked that your song has been lost for many years. If you finally have a way to upload it officially on digital platforms, don't wait any longer. Many greetings
Thank you for searching and for listening to my music! I just uploaded it to Bandcamp today paulatoledo.bandcamp.com/track/how-long. I am working on getting it onto streaming sites. I am an indie artist and one woman show lol so I am working as fast as I can. Thanks for your patience! Happy holidays!
Hey, maybe you’ve seen it but the song is on Apple Music and Spotify! Yayayayyayaya!
Hi Paula!! Yesterday, when I saw on reddit that they found you, I literally started to cry hahaha
The lostwave community is always sharing amazing songs that connect with people in multiple ways but have an unknown origin, and we are probably motivated partly by curiosity and partly by the sadness of thinking how something as beautiful as your song can get lost in time, especially in the age of the internet. It makes me very happy to know that with a joint work, people can reverse this event.
I just wanted to show my appreciation for your work and tell you that, if this song was found after so many years, it is because it really transmitted many special emotions to all of us, and I think that shows the power of your art. I hope you will continue to share it with us
The lostwave community is always toxic and banning me, for silly things. That way that you say "that connect with people in multiple ways" isn't actually correct. All they did was make fun of me behind their back on discord for about 3 years.

Thank you for allowing this song to exist in the world. 😊😊
People actively searching for you and your music has to be one of the best compliments as an artist
I am genuinely glad we got to hear the full song, absolute miracle; Thank you so much for being involved in the community and with your fans, Thank you Paula. ❤
Can you sing "How long" for us in the future? We would love that :3
'Lost' music can turn up in the most unexpected places! You could send it over to be used in a TCM movie, and then it ends up on a bootleg DVD! I really admire you Paula, do hope you release more of your music in the future as I'm already obsessed LOL
Found your story via this Canadian news article "Internet sleuths looked for the singer of a mystery song for 16 years. They found her in Vancouver" In case you didn't read that one, yet. Cool story, beautiful song!
Haha, I was the one who asked about Stray. Thank you Paula!!! We’re so happy to have found you. You are incredibly talented. Keep being you!
❤ Love This Story! ❤ You left a comment for us on TikTok on our cover of your beautiful song. Thank you! We were so honored and happy we found this video and got to play a small roll in your story. ❤😢
Your song is so amazing, Paula. I loved it very much since when it was a “lost media.” Everyone used teddy bear pictures for your “mysterious song.” I always thought it was The Cranberries’s outtake song, but it could have been possibly made by somebody else and was actually released.
This song was super obscure, but it was somehow made into Russian bootleg DVDs. It’s find it sad how some people theorized that your song was AI-generated, as many people in lost media community are brainwashed with “fake” or “AI-generated” theories. But now we can prove these people wrong.
This was the lost song I hoped the most to be found! It was so nostalgic, emotional, and beautiful! I was amazed how a song that sounds so good can be forgotten, but now we found the true background of this song. We all appreciate you, Paula, for making this masterpiece. You masterpiece became a mysterious lost song since 2007 and then become a found lost song in 2023.
how is it ai generated if it was posted before openai jukebox (2021)
@@Nocind You’re right. It is definitely not AI-generated, since it was on internet since 2007. These people didn’t even think about it.
Hey, thank you Paula! Your song was a truly hidden gem and we are glad that now you can listen to it with us. You've made a good job and your song will be a motivational piece of how nothing is impossible to find if people are here for it.
That's so wholesome
I'm not sure about the story, but snippets from secret lives were put on russian bootleg DVD menus, none of which were related to secret lives.
Its still crazy that we found the song honestly I didn't think it would get found so soon after it went mainstream after the Shai Valley video on CZcams. Thanks for making such an amazing song.
I just discovered your song, your music, and you a few days ago. It's amazing how it all started from a pirated DVD, and I think that's the reason why piracy is beneficial. In the end, we end up buying the media and supporting artists like you. You deserve all the love you are receiving.
That was and still is one of my favorite songs. Shocking how this was out of nowhere for you and I'm glad it was found so quickly.
Literally gasped when I got this on my recommendation!! I’ve been obsessed with that song along with a few others that are still ongoing in the lost media community. I’m so glad we found you your song is amazing ❤️
So what i believe happened, is someone took the song from the movie it was featured in (the one you approved) and used it on the bootleg someone made and cut it into segments for some reason then that bootleg blew up, basically because the bootleg didnt have any credits people didnt know who the song was made by, got to mention, you have got to release this song, its so powerful.
Yeah, that makes sense.
it's been years since the internet found this song.. This song is actually older than me. It's been around for more than 16 years and it's one of the best songs I've heard. i'm so glad it's been found and Paula Toledo has a beautiful singing voice. The song was beautiful and emotional and I cant believe i lived to the day it was finally found. :)
👏!🎉congratulations 🍾
GREAT VOICE ! 🌺🌼🌸💐🇲🇽💫🫡🇺🇸
First off - congratulations on being discovered, albeit in a rather clandestine fashion. Through all your hardships, you've made it work out. There's a line in an old song; "there's nothing quite as sure as change." You're living proof. Your beautiful smile and positive mental attitude has refreshed me enough to rescue some songs of my own...although they're not as good as yours.
NOW WAY IT WAS FINALLY FOUND, I KNEW THIS DAY WOULD COME
what a beautiful story behind this mysterious song. thank you for sharing ❤️
I can't stop listening to Stay Awhile
The name of the song was so ironic
It’s titled How Long, but its placeholder was How Long Will It Take. Meaning that the “Will It Take” part of the song’s title is not there when it was found, in which it should be the first place
really loved HLWIT, thanks :)) 🧸
me, a fan from the philippines! 🇵🇭

We can't wait until the official release!
we love you paula!!! ❤❤❤
omg just heard about your george harrison inspiriation - that's so beautiful and i can totally see it!
The name "How Long Will It Take" is certainty very poetic in this case, and the melancholic feel amplifies it. I'm super happy this got found, and even happier for you that you're getting noticed from this! You have a beautiful voice and the song is fantastic
I am very happy we found your song Paula
Please post the song on your official channel.
It's on Spotify now!
How have the other people who contributed to this track reacted to this whole thing? I would like to offer my thanks and appreciation to those peoples as well as yourself Paula, you all had a part in this amazing song and also this amazing lostwave search and conclusion. Thank you all!!
Jonathan Anderson who produced the song and played and sang on it, John Bews on Bass, and Trevor Grant on drums deserve so much love and recognition. David Odlum mixed the song in France :-) The whole experience of writing it and recording it, and semi ;-) releasing it was made possible due to their talents. It is so wild how this song has resurfaced in our lives thanks to the Lost Wave and subreddit HLWIT community. Thank you all so much!
@@odetowonder542 That is awesome! And thank you for taking the time to mention them too! What a crazy few weeks it must have been so far!

Hello, Paula, can you release on streaming platforms, along with the original song, a version of the song with the same pitch as on the bootleg DVD? It sounds very nice too!
You’re such a beautiful lady i really love your song how long
Ima big fan nowww
I assure you it’s just as surreal for us as it is for you! granted I’ve only known about this for a few months not 16 years, but getting to hear more than 30-second clips is just fantastic, and I’ve had it on loop for the past 2 days. we’re all excited for whatever you decide to do next!

Hey Paula, I was just wondering if you knew a song called "Dance For Hours A Day".
Please release how long on CD!!!!
I recently listened to your Stay Awhile album and it's an incredibly amazing album that deserves way more recognition! I honestly hope this search and how everything turned out motivates you into writing and recording more music ❤
Nothing is truly lost it has just been forgotten I'm so happy for you
Вот и мне тоже интересно, как песня How Long оказалась у русских создателей пиратских DVD дисков? Хотя, если считать, что они взяли эту песню из фильма Secret Lives (2005), которая играла в конце фильма, но многие про этот фильм забыли, то это имеет хоть какой то смысл.
Но то что эту песню в итоге, спустя 16 лет, нашли, то это действительно как подарок на Рождество.
Привет из России🇷🇺❤️
Thank you Paula, we appreciate it from this community.
We love you, Paula! ❤
We found the face, of the beached up teddy bear. It finally found its owner.
Thank you so much for your story and answering all these questions :) Its great to get a background impression about the Story and the Artist behind it. I wish you all the best in life

omg i love Germany
Really love the song so much and start searching for it in multiple websites. Sadly couldn't find it myself. Glad the internet could band together to search and find it! Been listening to the song on loop now. It just that good!
i listened to ur album and GOD i love fly away and stay awhile theyre like.. fucking masterpieces??? its so so good,,
“Joan” hit 1200 Spotify streams! Let’s stream the whole album to get all the songs above 1000 plays
Canadian artist? Holy hell sign me up I’m gonna buy the song brb
Edit: I Keep coming back to both this video and the actual song cus the story is so cool and I love that Paula knows about the story. You especially got the important parts of the story completely correct.
La canción es hermosa, pero ella lo es aún más.
I'm so happy the song has been found again, it's genuinely so amazing
was waiting til we got to see her repsond to this and wow this was quick lol
I was really hoping this song would be found, I'm glad it finally was, you have a beautiful singing voice. I can only imagine how surreal it must've been to suddenly get all those messages. Props from a fellow Canadian.
Your songs are inspiring to mamy people including myself
I read a news article about this song and then looked you up. Incredible story. Kind of like a modern day Sugarman (woman in this case of course 😀). I hope this opens up new pathways back into music for you. Perhaps I’ll see you out this way (NS) someday. ✌️
I only learned about your music a few weeks ago, so I was not very involved in the search at all, but your video has moved me. The poetry in this entire series of events, your music, your life story, your work, all of it makes me emotional. Thank you, Paula ❤
thank you for making such a lovely song
Thank you for your amazing beautifull song and you work outside music too! 🧸🧸🧸
I can't wait for the release!
How sweet.
Hallöchen
Love this amazing song. It feels surreal finally listening to the full song
Hi Paula, I just wanted to say how much I love your music. How Long was the first lostwave song that I decided to put time into trying to find, it’s a beautiful song and something about it really reached me on a deep emotional level, despite only hearing it in clips. In fact, searching for it helped get me through some tough times the past couple of months, and I’m overjoyed to now have the full song and your LP to listen to. I can’t wait for the new releases, and hope to enter your cover contest! Take care
Y solo tomo 16 años 💀
Gracias por tu canción Paula Toledo.
You need to perform this live somewhere broadcasted someday! The internet will love you forever!
Just found out about that lost song recently and I was so full of hope that it will be found. It's been such an interesting journey, so many theories, leads and snippets, and finally here we are. Thanks to everyone, who contributed for finding this song, without you, we wouldn't know about Paula Toledo!
Just hearing from you makes me tear up, we love you Paula 🙏🏽❤️
She is so beautiful and talented I'm
happy people find her music and her
song is amazing ❤
This song has definitely a great charm. I have just watched this movie, heard the song, saw the name of the singer and writer of this song at the end of the movie and went immediately to check the artist.
It is a fantastic story. This is a beautiful song and I love the vocals.
This is so cool, I was never part of this search but it’s amazing that it was found and that she made this video
