Top Comments of this video!! :3
I spent most of those lockdown days out in the woods doing wildlife photography so this video and the circumstances that inspired this song really hits close . Although I don't agree that humans are not as beautiful as the nature we come from. In fact living amongst the animals and away from the city reminded me of how divorced we have become from the ways of nature and the lessons they can teach us. That there is a part of nature in all of us that can never be extinguished and we all have the potential to be beautiful even if we choose to be ugly some times.

How can someone not want to save this? Nature is so beautiful and perfect as it is!
Everything touched by humans got worse. Every human made problem being solved creates new problems. This system we call earth is way too complex for us to understand in its completeness. We better shouldn't manipulate anything, but so much damage is already done...

Justin comments: "Although this is not a 'lock down' song, Belinda's lyrics were certainly inspired by the lack of human activity we found when the first lock down began. We were going for walks where I live in the countryside and the silence was amazing, the air seemed more fresh and there was a definite increase of wildlife activity. So it made us both realise more than ever how ugly we are as a race, humans basically ruin everything. Musically this is one of my personal faves on the new album, 'BANEFYRE, The Musical!' It plays an integral part in the sound journey, it’s simple but powerful. Very CBP." Belinda comments: "Justin sent me the demo with the title, I thought the song was beautiful, so I couldn’t just plonk down (write) just anything. It had to be right. The inspiration for the song hit me during the first wave of Covid. When I was over visiting Justin in the UK, and I couldn’t get back home for quite some time due to travel restrictions. So, we were spending a lot of time outside in the countryside and i was amazed at the quick turn nature took for the better, as soon as humans were removed out of the equation. The increased symphony of birdsong, bumble bees the size of my fist turning up in the garden, animals coming out of hiding and popping up here, there and everywhere. Nature and its inhabitants were thriving to the very fullest. As they should. It was beautiful, but also sad at the same time. knowing that when we get back to 'normal, ' the destruction continues.
