@Jaredleelives - Falling on, found on youtube.com

The camera shook a little as it was placed onto a stand showing a slightly blurry image of Shayne's garage that came into focus in a few seconds. Shayne's multicolor drum kit was set up along with a mic while Jared's guitar leaned against some boxes, wires spread out across the floor.

"Alright, you ready?" A voice came from behind the camera as Shayne stepped into the field of view.

A bubble of bright pink bubble gum puffed out from her mouth before it popped and she smiled offering a thumbs up. Bright pink dragonfruit hair got tossed back as she sat down at the drums.

"Lets see how it sounds."

Shayne flipped the sticks in her hand and tore right into a Wipe Out-ish type solo, splashes of light and color coming from the especially loud clashes. She stopped looked up, shaking her head no like "That isn't what you wanted?" letting out a small snicker she sat up straight giving a much more tame beat.

"Sounds good!" the voice came one last time.

The camera cut out, only to cut right back on with Shayne and Jared in the picture this time. Jared rocked the usual sea turtle shirt with Shayne having her favorite dragon fruit pink shirt with the little green dragonfly on it. He bounced up and down a few times before a loud strum of the guitar kicked off the song.

Jared bounced around while playing, head bobbing with the beat Shayne laid down in the back. She was all smiles radiating light as each drum let off a different color as she it it, arms slightly exaggerated in her motions just getting into it.

She blew another bubble, popping it with a grin as a large wave of purple and yellow splashed off the drums with Jared stepping up to the mic starting to sing. He had that curled smile to his lips as they nearly pressed up against the mic, but the quality of the audio was spot on.

The two of them had fun through the first part of the song, the music very much alive on the video as Shayne drummed along getting into it while Jared bounced on his feet rocking with the song. As they reached the first hook and Jared sang out "And let the rest of your feelings go" he fell back his arms out with his guitar still around his neck.

A small riff played in blackness as the song suddenly picked back up only as the camera came into focus it was spinning along with Jared and his guitar, above the clouds, the ground not even in sight.

Jared sang out "And you've got to find your balance" continuing on with the song as the camera seemed to steady with him plummeting towards the clouds as he rocked out horizontally to the song. After a few moments of the sound coming from him falling (and the sounds of rapidly moving air rushing over the camera) it cut back to the clear quality found in Shaynes garage as the song continued on.

The sky shifted around him as he fell with the camera never breaking from his playing or singing, the song was catchy and his voice fit the music. The camera would spin with him sometimes as he bounced along with the music, but it remained surprisingly steady despite the freefall. He cut through the clouds in the second chorus as the city of Paragon was below him, looking like he was falling towards what looked like Talos Island somewhere.

The camera cut back to Shayne who was drumming with her eyes still closed, lost in the music as bright splashes of yellows, oranges, greens and blues filled the room. She opened them with a loud cymbal crash to see that she was alone, quickly standing up and looking around. The camera followed her rushing outside and looking up to the sky as the song continued you cutting back to Jared still falling towards the ground singing along.

As the song got closer and closer to the finish the camera would flow back and forth between Jared getting closer to the ground and Shayne running through Talos heading towards the beach.

As the last chords were struck the ground was nearly there and Jared simply closed his eyes to the camera letting his arms go out to the sides, letting go of his guitar. The camera cut to Shayne arriving on the beach to see the last moments as he fell into the sand with a loud "Boom!" that came with the crater.

It followed her as she rushed over to see him climbing out of a hole with his guitar, bright smile on his face. She offered him a hand down and pulled him up. In the background of the shot, sculpted in the sand were the letters @jaredleelives with Shayne and Jared smiling in the foreground, wrapping an arm around one another signing off the video.

In the brief screen before the video cut out all together it mentioned "Edited by Dana Lee" and "Special thanks to Harlan for coming along for the ride."
