Ed Sheeran - Blue (Fan Created Music Video) [Netherlands]

"The song Blue for me tells the story of a friendship breakup. I myself have experienced a similar situation, and it made me relate to the lyrics on a deeper level. I wanted to visualize the story through animation by showing how this breakup is leaving this "blue" feeling in the life of a person while they are still remembering the relationship they once had with this other person, who once felt like "golden" sunlight in their life before they left. Now that they don't talk, memories of the pair dancing before they went their separate ways are still attached to certain memorabilia, in this case, a heart-shaped necklace/locket.
My name is Renée, and I'm 24 years old. I'm from the Netherlands. I've been a fan of Ed Sheeran since his album "+," which is basically for over half my life. When I was 16 years old, the first concert I ever went to was Ed's Divide tour. He has been a big inspiration for me and the main reason I wanted to learn how to play the guitar and write songs myself. I've always loved drawing and being creative, so making the music video for his song "Blue" was honestly a dream come true! I feel very lucky to be living in a world with Ed's music as the soundtrack to so many of my dearest memories. Here's to making many more!" - Renée Schuurmans

Blue Lyrics:
Oh it took a while to read the signs
But she used to be a friend of mine
Leading forward but fell behind
Loneliness redefined
Over, and all of above I hope for
Happiness is all you know but
I can’t help but holding on
Silence is never golden
Quietly stuck in the moment, I’m not over you
I’ll be forever lonely
Silence ain’t golden, you know that it’s only blue
Oh I missed the mark a hundred times
Tried to take it back and change the night
Yeah we used to set the dream alive
Til the day it sunk and slowly died
Over, and all of above I hope for
Happiness is all you know but
I can’t help but holding on
Silence is never golden
Quietly stuck in the moment, I’m not over you
I’ll be forever lonely
Silence ain’t golden, you know that it’s only blue
