I am not gonna give in - Ending Ascent - Livestrong (youtube)

"I am not gonna give in" - Livestrong - Ending Ascent (youtube)

From Ad Forum:
"engine" is a Nike film about LIVESTRONG.

The film finds Lance Armstrong climbing a mountain on a training ride.

Around him, fuelling him, are a peloton of voices.

These voices are the words of people all over the world making efforts in the spirit of LIVESTRONG.

As Lance Armstrong rides, the voices tell of people facing challenges, facing cancer, coming to grips with what's next, getting up and improving their lives, inspiring others and making amazing goals come to life all over the world.

In the end, the "engine" in the film is both Lance Armstrong and the meaning of LIVESTRONG in all these people's lives.

It's what can be accomplished together with the idea of living better and supporting each other all summed up with Nike and its message of human potential:
Just do it.

An Ending (Ascent) by Brian Eno - 1983 (youtube)

An Ending (Ascent) - Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks by Brian Eno (1983) / Video by tracerprod (youtube)

Just another random music video which I stumbled across just now, after following a Jeremy Rolleston Blog post (BTW, take a look, it is a great post). For me I liked the music, water theme of the video and some of the comments:
  • This song really makes me think of my past, the past memories, locked away in my brain.

  • You could float away listening to this song. Utterly peacful and tranquil in everyway.
Quite moved by this and I know that Jenny would have loved this for sure as it reminds me of a lot of the music she played as she meditated.
