The Snail Song
Posted on Oct 09, 2008 under fish tanks |
This is a music video for a song written, sung and played by Chelsea Lynn La Bate, a songwriter in New York City. The main character in the song and video is a snail who lives in a fish tank in a CEO’s office in midtown Manhattan and has a crush on the guy who comes to clean the fish tank once a week.
The story begins “You only come around on Wednesdays. . .. ” and is inspired by a friend of Chelsea’s who had a job in NYC cleaning tanks and tending to aquatic creatures, some being snails.
Chelsea La Bate, having a back ground in painting, created the imagery and worked with Animator Karin Gunn to do the production work.
She hopes that you enjoy watching this “song story” as much as she enjoyed making it and promises that there are more to come!
